Something like this with FC symbol as the center

As requested.

Interesting Bradshaw, looks like a Liao sword slicing a dodge ball in two. I do have the Dawn League symbol here too.

Not sure I love that Ice as it looks more Liao chopping down the FedCom alliance. Be a fine unit symbol for the Capellans though!

My first try with a FedCom RCT logo like Ice did rather than the actual FedCom logo. What do you think??

How about something like this. Maybe making the I more into an S shape for the Salient representation

Another intent.

A little too simple Bradshaw although it may spark an idea to be incorporated.

Maybe I will try to blacken both symbols and rearrange things Ice. I like the dark star idea.

I was also thinking of doing an 'S' cut of both symbols and interlocking them.

Here is a real quick second try! ;)

Not sure I like it but blackened the symbols and cut them in half - interlocking or placing them side by side.

Third try based on my first, FedCom symbol is a lot darker and incorporated Bradshaw's simple method. Thoughts?

Not really a simple design like those you first envisioned.

To much a mish mash. Another direction since this changes after the Fox lives something to do with a fox.

Like the first one, Bradshaw.  Simple and to the point.

Yeah I was just trying to incorporate everything together Ice but it is a little too busy.

The Fox is nice idea Bradshaw but I have to agree with masterarminas and say that the first one is really nice. Where did you get it from? I might try to place the word Salient over top of the horizon logo but this is some really nice work!

Took a horizon image drew the sun onto it and just typed salient. I dont think it would be as nice with word above but can take a look if you like
