This is what came out in about five minutes. The bottom one is crap, but more evil looking. If you like, I could develop it a bit more.
Spoiler:
This is only a flat version. I can add highlights and textures later if you like.
My spritework can be seen here.

@frogger: Picture 5 looks good, but I think both logos shouldn't have that circle in the middle. Perhaps making that part 'solid' and adding a spike(s)/triangle(s) on the top to avoid it being too flat.

I really prefer the new look of the units and wonder if the captain sprite going to be finished soon? It looked promising.

Emblem drawing contest? Looks like fun.


Terrador or Zeder? You choose depending on what you think the symbolism best represents. It started as Zeder, but some aspects look like Zeder (rebels') traits and some like Terrador (original alliance's) traits. This is only a design, which is why it's monochromatic.

Symbolism:
Arms - the long reach of the [faction]
White triangle on black triangle - divulging from [other faction]'s path (this is probably best for Zeder)
White triangle dividing black triangle into three - best used for Zeder, it symbolifies separitists in a weird way
Circle: unity

The triangles also vaguely symbolify an upside-down all-seeing eye, showing the power and long reach of the [faction].

I will give it a try.

Edit: Five more minutes of work.
Spoiler:
I much prefer the circle. It works with the design better.

I ended up using pretty much the same palette that artisticdude's redraw, and I hope I fixes the barrel problem. I can use artisticdude's head if you want, but I'm unable to draw a better one myself.

SpecOps L2, I'd say he's done, but I hope you can critique something.

I actually like nr 1 the most.
I haven't really played the whole campaign, but it seems that Zeridians are a whole different race and I guess their emblem should be totally different from Terradorian one. ATM the emblems are 64p x 64p, I don't know if the amount of detail you can fit on those big graphics will be visible on scaled-down ones, and I have no idea if the big graphics will be used anywhere. Probably you should ask Dragonchampion about it.

It's all in vector, it'l work fine smaller. If you like number 1 then I'll see if I can make some more variants on it.

Read first, then say things like that.
TWoT 1.0 wrote:When Earth became uninhabitable due to nuclear warfare, the remaining humans journeyed into space. After a decade of living in space, they found a hone: New Earth. However, New Earth is plagued by war, just like its predecessor, and the armies of the Zederian Separatists and the Terrador Military fight in the many locations on New Earth.

My favourite is number 4 though I'd prefer to see it with the spider legs.

I was thinking along the same lines. I'll give it a try. :hmm:

Actually, It didn't turn out that bad.

TWoT 1.3.9 wrote on the first encounter with Zeridians: wrote: The screen turned black, and suddenly, a humanoid figure with blue skin and bulging red eyes appeared."
And it mentions Zeridians being some other race in a couple of places.
So you may want to update your version before you post things like that ;p.

Can't update my version. TWoT does not exist on 1.9. Heck, I retrieved 1.0 from the forum.
I maintain nuclear disasters can do strange things, especially in sci-fi stuff.

Quick question, anyone here know how to use that updater? Wes... something. I forget the name. I want to update to 1.9, but I have NEVER been able to get that updater thing to work. Like, EVER.

Wesball...no, Wes...
Er

Wmllint? :?

Never used it myself. I prefer good old-fashioned tweaking. You can't go wrong with good old-fashioned tweaking.
If you want, I'll sort out TWoT for 1.9.x, Omega's Tale included. :)
I say these sorts of things when I'm bored.
I will need a zip though.

Hey-I LOVE your campaign (Esp. the Grubs thingys-yah, i forget the name.) You campaign has made it into my top 5. I was wondering if your in need of some portraits....Here is a sketch to give you an example of what i can do...This isn't necessarily my BEST work, considering i only spent 5-10 minutes drawing it up.
I also realize (just noticed) that his head is a little pinched....i guess fighting in a space suit does that to a guy... :)

Its supposed to be a SpecOps...They legs need fixing and i can switch his rifle out for a energy sword, pistols etc.
