<div class="IPBDescription">Frontiersmen/TSA logo...</div> After taking a good hard look at ns textures I decided to go ahead and create my own. Starting with this...

Left is the new, right is the old one found in ns.wad.

FYI: I started from scratch.

    Question. Is this logo the TSA logo or just the Frontiersmen logo? Or both?

    It looks very good, but it doesn't feel all that TSA-ish (sp?)

    Maybe it's me, since I'm too used to the TSA logo or something

    Anyways, it's MUCH MUCH better than I can do <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    It's the TSA logo (I know, I have the shirt <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> ).
    And I don't really like it. It looks too... rounded? I dunno, maybe it's the colors. Edit: I know what it is now, I think. In the original logo, the things to the sides look like wings. On yours, they look like a ribcage or something. The idea is probably for them to be wings, so maybe some revision is in order?
    Here's another exmple (the one on the shirt <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->)

    Eldritch , the new image that you've done looks really cool . But seems a bit weird because as you see in the original image , there's a pistol and under it a knife .
    In the one that you've made , the pistol is clearly the knife itself also because of that 'hole' .

    Dunno ... cool but weird <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Edit : shouldn't be this in the artwork forum ?

    Fixed.

    I thought it more fitting here because it's more of a texture for mapping. At least thats what I plan on using it for.

    EDIT: Tweaked the colors and contrast a little...

    very nice, if its done, send it to me so i can use it in my map! its just the thing i want to have on the wall in the marine spawn. If you can add the words: 'You WILL conform.' under it, i'd be very grateful. TY

    You can see how it looks in game there. I think I'll make two versions, one with blue, one with black. The screenshot there has the texture with black. Looks really bright because of additive. No matter, it was just a test run.

    Thanks but I don't think so... This is the TSA logo, not a Nazi logo... :/

    Well, as long as no ones panties get bunched <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo--> for me changing the logo I plan on using it in a new project I'm starting.

    I scrapped the last two maps I was working on due to new ideas and lack of textures I like. So, I'm going to build a whole new wad. I don't want to use anything from any other ns wads... Not that they are bad or anything, I just don't find them fitting for my needs. I'm going to try like hell to keep them NS'ish but I do have a habit of styling things up a bit. All this will take a while of course...

    The infested textures will take the most time me thinks...


    Reguarding my statement above about making one logo with a blue background, I've changed my mind. Going to stick with black/additive. Though this might pose a problem when I add env_gamme...I'll make it work somehow! <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    very n1 <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    but u should try to make it look more used/dirty/scratched/older/relief/whatever but not too clean <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    thats my 2 cents anyway
