I really like your second revised design. The red with the grey looks really nice and makes everything stand out nicely. My suggestion is to just remove the reflected image you put on the second revised one and it would look really great.

Hey Deitrik,
Great style, I'm really drawn to both of your roughs. #2 stands out. Very simple, yet bold. Like the color and type choice. The logo you created with your initials is great. I see the bottom margin of your copy is too tight, maybe to fix that you could extend the content box vertically to free up some space so it fits nicely. Also, perhaps you can create a text wrap around your portrait?

I love both of your designs, but if I had to choose, it would have to be the first one. I love when I see designs with city outlines. The clean look it has appeals to me

I agree with you, I think that the second rough is more visually interesting, very like the idea of Reno skyline. I would try to make that skyline darker, ether Black or very Dark Red, and u can use that light shade of red in top line instead. As of now, is little bet heavy on the top. I think if you go from dark to light color option starting from the skyline, it would be more visually balanced. I would also consider playing with the fond option you have for your buttons, right now they are a little bet hard to read (or it could be that it is outlined and capitalized, both of those things alone reduces readability).
Overall, good job!
