Michigan - The Mitten State

My take on the Michigan plate -

Going back to the original, or at least longest-standing plate design of my Home State - complete with the "Michigan Plates" typeface I created. I always loved that Michigan embossed stamp although here it would be reflective.

I thought "the Mitten State" was a nice, friendly slogan update. It reminds me of coziness, even though the state is known more now for its despondency.

The new plates are bland and completely lacking in every way, however one thing I do like is the Michigan shaped hologram thing they imprint in the center. Or at least they used to do that. I made it more obvious and included the state motto around the center graphic.
