New: the dogs behind the B - faded like a watermark (round 5)

E01-E18: the gold B coin stays the hero and a dog sits behind the B like an engraving in the coin face, faded and melted into the gold. E01-E06 the knight doge, E07-E12 the bread doge, E13-E18 both dogs. The black-gold versions (E05, E11, E17) and the engraved ones keep a hint of the dog at small sizes; at 16-32 px every version is the coin and the B.
E01-knight-photo-multiply
E01-knight-photo-multiply png

E03-knight-engraved

E05-knight-black-gold

E06-knight-rim-crop

knight at full face width, head right of the B, shield cut by the rim, multiply 20 % - cinematic at 1024, nothing small.
E07-bread-photo-multiply
E07-bread-photo-multiply png
loaf centred, multiply 25 % - face peeks right of the upper bowl; faint.
E08-bread-gold-tint
E08-bread-gold-tint png
gold-duotone loaf, multiply 45 % - the loaf texture becomes a warm patch; face visible at 1024.
E09-bread-engraved

luminosity 32 % - mono loaf, the face reads at 1024 only.
E11-bread-black-gold

E12-bread-rim-crop

loaf fills the face, head top-right of the B, multiply 20 % - a big soft shape, face recognisable at 1024.
E13-both-side-by-side
E13-both-side-by-side png
bread left of the stem, knight right, multiply 28 % - two faint figures either side of the B.
E14-both-each-side-stem
E14-both-each-side-stem png
the L02 placement (bread upper-left, knight lower-right) in faded gold 45 % - the site logo as a ghost.
E15-both-overlapping
E15-both-overlapping png
large mono loaf behind, smaller knight in front lower-right - layered, slightly busy.
E16-both-engraved
E16-both-engraved png
both silhouettes struck into the metal - two shapes, the knight's shield reads best.
E17-both-black-gold
E17-both-black-gold png
black field, both dogs as gold ghosts 30 % - both faces readable at 1024, loaf still a hint at 128.
E18-knight-big-bread-small
E18-knight-big-bread-small png
big faint knight behind, small embossed bread upper-left - the one scale-contrast version.
