This was originally thought as a sceptre (or a magic staff or something like that) but I ended up doing something completely different. It's some kind of jewel or gem based on the four elements (water, air, fire and earth or nature).
This is still a concept so feel free to give any suggestions on how to improve this.
Made in MyPaint.

EDIT: cleaned up, made the border lines thinner and removed all the extra ones; made colors more bright; the original image is still downloadable

well.. you could clean it up and make it vector art or pixel art. It could be an effect (fancy particle or one-frame animation) or an icon for a spell. If you make the shape round or rectangle-ish it could be a game piece for puzzle games for example.
In a cleaner state this would look like a great guild logo.
I remembered that I should have said that I like this drawing :)
And then it just came to my mind that this looks firefox/thunderbird-ish thanks to the colors and shapes :D
Well, I don't know at all vector art and my few trials in pixel art were quite terrible, so I think for the moment I'd better discard those two options.
By the way, cleaning it could be a good idea. I think that the lines that look so 'dirty' are quite nice, but keeping both the 'cleaned' and this version should be fine...
Nice cleanup! I'm very glad you did not delete the old version! History/versioning for the win! :)
I'll see if I can do a vector version.
