I forgot to add "Clan Nova Cat" to it. Let me know if it needs revision.

I thought you did that as an artistic touch, honestly...

Well, after I noticed I had forgotten it, I kinda liked it without the name. But its omission was accidental.

That is a cool banner.  And I didn't even notice the omission until it was pointed out, because it's undeniably Clan Nova Cat.  But what could it say?  Clan Nova Cat/Never Forget would possibly be one.    Not that it needs anything, because the sad catgirl does say it all.

But anyway, just wanted to throw in an thought on the Brett Andrews idea:  maybe it might go better with "I smell your taint".  Because that's creepy enough to match the eyes and the WoR theme is served well.  Also, he's got a more aggressive outward stare in his portrait from ER: 3062 if that could become part of the composition and if possible or needed to fill out the work, that's cool too.

Nova Cats, Nova Cats, Nova Cats... no idea for a slogan, though :(

Now with "new" Spirit Cat logo and Kurita catgirl ninja image (well, improvise with medium battle armor if that fails) 

Slogan:  "Moe Tsundere Catgirl Battle Maids ... Will Punish You!"

In click-tech Spirit Cat Clan Battle Armor was the most feared unit type above all others.  It's lighter than Elementals, but much faster and armed with Flamers.

Hikage,

Greetings from a fellow battletech fan and attorney to be! (taking the July bar, yuck)

Could you make a Federated Suns banner with a Sword and sunburst with the caption, "To be, or not to be?"

Cheers,

MarauderD

Was thinking space, preferably with something in it :) Union-C, Space mech like the Shadow Hawk IIC 7 pic, or some cool fighters ;)

Damn. If only we'd thought to ask for this motto on a banner before the Sea Fox transition. ;)

He will still do it for you if you want.  After all, there are banners for the Star League and other factions which have been gone/renamed a lot longer.

Heck month is almost over and I'll try to get to those in queue as soon as possible. In the meantime, I have made a few sig bars (which are a lot easier and less time consuming than a faction banner) on my other thread.

If and when you can be bothered, I have even more requests. And thanks again!

For the Fronc Reaches, a banner with the FR flag in the middle, and on either side of it: "We are a Free People" and "We Intend to Stay that Way"

And a banner for the Calderon Protectorate. As far as I can tell, it's the same symbol as the Taurian Concordat, but with the gold stars replaced by black stars. Maybe just something in your classical style, with the text "The Soul of the Taurian People". I can't think of anything particularly good though, that doesn't come off as too cheesey. Maybe It's better reserved for a signature bar rather than a full on banner unless there's a good idea for text.

I can do both (fb or sb) and you can pick which you like.
