Brother Atraedese Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Hi guys, I'm in the process of making my custom space marine chapter and am looking for a good, easy to use, program that I can use to make an insignia for my chapter. If anyone knows of one that I can use, whether it be an app, browser based, or a desktop program, please let me know. Thanks a bunch in advance!

Tyriks Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I would also be interested in this. I've looked around and found nothing suitable for 40k.

Khornestar Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Paint.net is decent, and free. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345082-looking-for-a-good-program-to-make-a-chapter-insignia/#findComment-5027499 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azatoth Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) GIMP is possibly the best free program, as it can use a lot of PS filters. I might be able to help depending on complexity.

Cpt_Reaper Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 I recommend Krita. it's a bit more user friendly than GIMP. It is also free...so try both!

If you are looking for something free, I'm going to second GIMP. If you can afford it, or have an access to it, Adobe Illustrator is excellent for making insignia, with added bonus of using vector graphics, which is incredibly useful when it comes to actually printing it. There is also a lot of free vector art that is easy to adjust to fit your insignia.

WarriorFish Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 If you're just going to be bashing shapes and text together (which is likely for an insignia) GIMP etc may be unnecessary. There are online sources for creating something, for example Vectr.

NovemberIX Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Inkscape is free and also does vector images (great for when you want to make decals or stickers) and works well alongside GIMP.
