I'm going to try to be constructive.
If you want to sell it and sell a lot of them, I would :
1- make it simpler: fewer thicker lines.
2- make it more coherent: fewer hues of a given color. In this particular example I would go white and no more than 2 hues of blue.
3- take inspiration from the Dark Horse badge generally: it doesn't have a lot of detail, the lines are thick and shapes have mass to them. It doesn't look like an art piece that can be interpreted as tasteful or gross. It just is. It stands on its own and no one will ever say the dark horse badge is disgusting or anything negative. I personally do not like it much, but I don't find it repelling at at all. You want something like that.
The artist who created this hood pad has talent and an eye for capturing movement and this particular design will appeal to some people. If the aim is to sell many, recoup costs and make a profit I would do something that integrates the 3 suggestions above.
Cheers,

Thanks for the constructive criticism! Not trying to sell anything this will be on my DH. Added a DH Badge (top right) & The DARK HORSE font (top left) in the final design. Haven't had the time to post the new version yet.
When looking at it in person if you move left or right when looking at the middle it moves with your eyes (REALLY TRIP) how it does this! Not sure if I can record the movement with the camera but will probably try.

My post was constructive as well. Tacky is tacky, no matter how you slice it.

However, only counts if it sticks
