Unit insignias
« on: 20 June 2018, 14:37:45 »
I have been killing time between my last few games making insignias for units. Since this has snow balled to epic proportions requiring some sort of intervention I thought I would share a few.

Here are:

Freeling's Frenzy
Captain's Caveman Corps
The Midway Monster's Mercenary Militia
and Cogburn's Roosters

And finally the two fighting it out for the name of my unit for my next campaign:

The Mercs With No Name

and Mimes Against Humanity

Comments and criticism are welcome, in fact they are sought. So if one or more rate highly with you or if you have a strong negative reaction to one or more, feel free to let me know.

Thanks everyone!

We can blame the mimes.

Not bad, well done

I vote for Mercs with No Name, then you can have a dress uniform like so.
"For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast, And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed:And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill, And their hearts but once heaved, and for ever grew still!"

Mercs with no name, they have a name that stands out. :thumbsup:

Something about the Mercs With No Name insignia does not sit right. I may have to redo it.

I also like the Mercs with No Name... as far as the insignia, maybe drop the beard?  It wouldn't really be visible at a distance anyway...

Ah, didn't realize that... maybe do without it anyway?  That might make it a bit cleaner...

Fluffy Bunnies

No lie. My friend's command for the Total Chaos campaign we've been playing for the last six years is Hell's Fluffy Bunnies.

Nice!  Also, don't forget to change the text under your avatar... it still says Mimes Against Humanity, though you've switched the image to the Mercs with No Name logo...

   Any chance you are willing to make one for those of us less able?   I have a unit I made up for the HBS game....

Sure. But I can do even better than that. I can give you the link to the website I use. All you have to do is put your logo together and just click on the save icon. It will then give a pop up asking if you want to pay 19.99 for them to do a high quality version or take the one you made and just give them credit on facebook, twitter or something like that.

Combined Arms

I love this.

Seeing your design made me recall a unit I trained with many moons ago.

"The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried."

There is the right way, the wrong way, and the Lyran way. Which is to say:  The wrong way using Assault 'Mechs.

Did the link work out for you? If not I would be happy to make one up. Also if anyone wants to use any of these go right ahead.
