bluntblade Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Are we getting some down for the Morning Stars and Shepherds? I wouldn't mind getting something less heavy on the "I" for the Nightguard. Just for neutrality's sake during the early Insurrection.

Skalpynock Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 ....... 04 - Morningstars: ready pending approvalo ....... 09 - Steel Guard: ready pending approval Morning Stars: I'm not sure about the hole in the middle, it feels more "shuriken" and less "star" to me. Steel Guard: scribbling the different symbol variants of the IXth legion, I found out adding a pair of crossed, white lightning bolts behind the tower helped give some contrast.

Doctor Perils Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Only slight change on the 'serkers one - no blood drops. I know that seems kinda contrary to my everything, but it kinda reminds me of Tycho's shoulder right now. EDIT: Do we need a prior cognomen symbol as well? Okay, I'll come round to that later on today (hopefully). Should I just leave the ragged edge, or should there be something else ? To be clear, we don't need prior cognomen or prior symbol. However, some of the proposed ideas for badges seem too good just to be left to the side. I think bony hands will be a bit much. Maybe save it for a Chapter/cult banner? I fancy the latter, actually, for my necromancer idea for Nurgle's Chosen. That could work imo http://image.bolterandchainsword.com//public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png Updated list : 01 - Lightning Bearers: ready pending approval ....... 01 - Harbingers: ready pending approval 02 - XXXXXXXX 03 - Crimson Lions: ready pending approval ....... 03 - Blood Wolves: ready pending approval 04 - Void Eagles: approved (with reserve) ....... 04 - Morningstars: hole to be changed 05 - Halcyon Wardens: approved 06 - Iron Bears: approved ....... 06 - Juggernauts: colours to be changed 07 - Berserkers of Uran: blood drops to be removed, chains to be remodelled 08 - Godslayers: Unaware of their symbol 09 - Warbringers: approved ....... 09 - Steel Guard: lightning bolts to be added 10 - Fire Keepers: ready pending approval 11 - XXXXXXXXXXXX 12 - Wardens of Light: approved ....... 12 - Apostles of War: approved 13 - Eagle Warriors: ready pending approval 14 - Dune Serpents: approved 15 - Grave Stalkers: approved 16 - The Drowned: ready pending approval 17 - Warriors of Peace: approved 18 - Stygian Jackals: unaware of their symbol 19 - Scions Hospitaler: ready pending approval 20 - Ghost Walkers: ready pending approval XX - Nightguard: to be done LINK TO DRIVE @Bluntblade Less heavy on the "I" or the "eye" ? Have you got any suggestions? Since the Nightguard is pretty distinctive, I think we need something very stylised and simple (so no daemon heads pierced by a sword) We could of course use a tower, or a lighthouse, but that might be stepping on the Steel Guard's or the Fire Keeper's toes. @Skalpynock Should I make the hole bigger, smaller, or replaced completely ? Without anything in the middle it looks a bit strange.

bluntblade Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I was thinking a crescent moon, perhaps combined with a side-on image of an eye.

Big Bad Squig Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 The Godslayers symbol will be something like this (idea courtesy of SanguiniusReborn).

Doctor Perils Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 (edited) Right, I've modified the Morningstars, Juggernauts, Godslayers, Steel Guard. I think the Godslayers' is too thin, like the Scions' had been. Would you consider adding a simple motif (probably not a vertical stripe), or extra garnishings ? Of course, if you're okay with it as it is, that's great http://image.bolterandchainsword.com//public/style_emoticons/default/smile.png Updated list : 01 - Lightning Bearers: ready pending approval....... 01 - Harbingers: ready pending approval02 - XXXXXXXX03 - Crimson Lions: ready pending approval....... 03 - Blood Wolves: approved04 - Void Eagles: approved (with reserve)....... 04 - Morningstars: approved05 - Halcyon Wardens: approved06 - Iron Bears: approved....... 06 - Juggernauts: ready pending approval07 - Berserkers of Uran: approved08 - Godslayers: to be discussed09 - Warbringers: approved....... 09 - Steel Guard: approved10 - Fire Keepers: ready pending approval11 - XXXXXXXXXXXX12 - Wardens of Light: approved....... 12 - Apostles of War: approved13 - Eagle Warriors: ready pending approval14 - Dune Serpents: approved15 - Grave Stalkers: approved16 - The Drowned: approved17 - Warriors of Peace: approved18 - Stygian Jackals: unaware of their symbol19 - Scions Hospitaler: approved20 - Ghost Walkers: ready pending approval XX - Nightguard: to be done LINK TO DRIVE We're getting there !

Skalpynock Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Approved on both accounts. Chaos Morningstars will just add arrows to the relevant points of the star. Steel Guard: not quite what I had in mind, but equally as great.

Big Bad Squig Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I agree it looks a little thin; we could shorten the sword a bit and then enlarge the subsequent image to fill up more space. If that doesn't work I'll experiment with some other motifs.

Big Bad Squig Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I think for rank and file it looks fine. Maybe for more senior members of the legion it can have a little added flourish.

Doctor Perils Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) Sigismund: For the Blood Wolves not really it looks good.For the Crimson Lions, perhaps make the background a bit more metalic if you could? And if possible remove the tongue coming from the Lion's mouth And I've done just that (still not sure about the bronze ?)

Skalpynock Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 A good way of representing metallics is having the light be more abrupt, rather than the wide line you use for all the pads.

~Drakzilla~ Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 For a bronze effect, try a radial gradient with brown around the edges and a light copper color in the middle?
