DZComposer Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 With IPB4 nearing and the SF-O overhaul coming, I want to replace the rank images we have with ones that make more sense for Star Fox.The current ones are USMC rank insignias. I'd rather them look a little more like they come from the Lylat System rather than the US Department of the Navy.So, if any of you designers/artists out there want to contribute to SF-O, this is a chance! I could make them myself, but I am no artist and my Photoshop skills are pretty lame, so I am opening this design up before I redesign them myself to see if the community can offer something better than what I can do.The new insignias DO NOT HAVE TO LOOK LIKE THE OLD ONES! You can be creative!I haven't decided on a theme color scheme yet, but I'm thinking medium/dark grays instead of blacks.The ranks and current insignia:Lurker: No insignia (Don't bother making an insignia for lurkers. Lurkers have 0 posts, and thus people won't see it as when the post they immediately become enlistees)CDF Enlistee: (This may be renamed "CDF Recruit")CDF Private: CDF Private First Class: CDF Corporal: CDF Sergeant: CDF 2nd Lieutenant: CDF 1st Lieutenant: CDF Captain: CDF Major: CDF Lieutenant Colonel: CDF Colonel: CDF Brigadier General: CDF Major General: CDF Lieutenant General: CDF General: Auxiliary Staff: Moderator: Administrator: I will not be adding ranks nor will I disclose how many posts are needed to achieve them, though I will say they are not on a linear scale.The new site will feature a contributors page. If your designs are chosen, you will be credited there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unoservix Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 hm hmmmm hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm is there some little piece of Star Fox flotsam that might offer an inspiration for a set of insignias? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LazerMaster5 Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 And here I kind of like the current rank insignia. It looks professional, and if my memory recalls, the same badges are also used in scifi such as Halo and the Alien movies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monokuma Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I am 0% artist, but I scrambled around on the R* Social Club Crew Emblem Creator to at least provide a possible template in hopes to allow some influence/variety on the matter. I severely hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedora Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 If not the originals, I do kinda like Hidi's. Only thing is that I wish is that we could somehow keep the rank look to them. But alas, beggars can't be choosers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrypticQuery Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 I am taking a liking to Hidi's, though might I recommend that the word "for" be removed - just having Starfox-Online beneath the rank looks better IMO. Perhaps each different rank could be represented by the silhouette of something from the games in addition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hidi Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Perhaps each different rank could be represented by the silhouette of something from the games in addition?I had a concept for that that I had been considering, but the concept I posted, I thought of suddenly, and it was very easy for me to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But alas, beggars can't be choosers.Hidi's are not guaranteed to be used. No one has yet to post a full set of rank images, so I have nothing yet to really pick from.Hidi's do look nice, though the decapitated fox heads are a little creepy... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redeemer Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Humor aside, let's not forget the actual purpose of this thread, please. Jajajaja. I like the old ones! But a change isn't bad either. I don't really know how to make things like this, otherwise I would. I have some ideas but they're also very cute ideas and I'm not sure you want a kawaii SFO. Or do you?

Dr. Orange Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I made some ikks but if I like this idea by the end of the night I can refine them into nngs. I still need a colour pallet tho'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks professional, and if my memory recalls, the same badges are also used in scifi such as Halo and the Alien movies. Those movies, though, acknowledge the existence of Earth and humans. They use the US Navy's rank insignia because in the case of Halo, that's the standard NATO ranking system, which is what the UNSC is, and in the case of Alien, it's just convenient.
