Art Request: Threat Assessments 2785
« on: May 08, 2010, 09:38:23 PM »

Hey gang, as Threat Assessments 2785 progresses along the need for unit insignias is becoming more and more apparent. So I thought I’d issue a call for art. Some symbols we already have or are drawn from canon sources. As such the DCMS and the LCAF have largely been accounted for. In the future I’d like to redo or sharpen some of these but I’d like to concentrate on creating something for these units below. As you can see most are for the Federated Suns (26 in all needed for the AFFS) whose military underwent perhaps the most dramatic remodeling following canon events. Rounding out are list are nine symbols needed for House Liao and six for House Marik. We have notes available for each unit if you need inspiration.

I’d like to start off with the Andalusian Cazadores whose write up I just concluded. If possible I’d like to base their symbol off the native Mycosia blossoms which were noted for their brilliant green triangular flowers. I believe there is a picture of them somewhere. Anyhow thanks in advance.

I can give a try to some of them.

Abbey Templars base.  I think I need to find a decent sword to put in there somewhere.

Both are much better than what I originally had. See below.

I'd like to base the Bolan Scouts insignia off their real life Pakistani symbol. I tried to clean it up but maybe somebody could do a better job with the eagle.  ;)

Graham Grenadiers done by Bradshaw is a keeper.

This any better?  I cleaned up Graham Grenadiers while I was at it.

Grahams Grenadiers looks great. I'll try some subtle changes with the eagle Sid and send it back to you for a cleaning which looked pretty good.

I liked the bird-on-orange you had in the Abbey Templars prototype, so I though we could use for the League Regulars.

I like it! The Marik eagle is always good but what is the signifigance of the orange background? Free Worlds natives serving with the SLDF who returned are lumped into this contingent. I wonder if a Star League star would be appropriate in some way.

I suppose, though with the close scrutiny the unit is already under wouldn't that make the spooks at SAFE even more paranoid about them?

True enough but I figured some Star League heritage might shine through. It is a good looking insignia.

Hmm... How about a small Cameron star sitting about where the talons on the bird would be?  Shows their SLDF heritage but gives the impression of being subservient to the League.
