Any Takers? (art conquest)

Well, I've got a symbol in my head. I don't if I've seen it before or if it already exists, but I'd like to see it fleshed out.

If anyone is willing to help me out, here are the two main points of focus: The base is a circle (like a sun or those circular swords on Soulcalibur) with a large sword pointing up through the middle. The legging is a pair of swords crossed at the hilts (including the hilt of the large sword) with the blades pointing up and out from the base.

I'm hoping to get a few responses and to see a level of diversity/variety. If I like what I see, I may keep it and give credit due (or tweak it). I may actually have others tweak it to get a different take on it. I haven't decided yet.

I don't have time this week, but I might be able to make something this weekend.

Here's a quick sketch. If you like it, I'll make a formal picture.

I think I'd like the three hilts to be closer together... Not sure how I feel about those... plates orbiting the symbol. Could be that the circle in the middle actually looks like a circle so the plates don't make it look like a sun. I don't know though, it might look better in color. The larger sword blade, I think, should also be a little wider. Thanks for contributing.

Round 2. Again, this a very rough sketch. If you like the feel of it, I'll make a final version.

You mean request, right?

Uhh... ... yeah...

All right, great. Let's see that in color then. Thanks.

Here's the line art. Any particular color preferences? I'm thinking brass and light grey for the center sword, dark grey and red for the curved swords.

No particular color preference, no.

You don't ask a lot do you. :P

**BG-57** · 03-17-2009, 10:27 PM

Final color version. Hope you like it.

**Mercen-X** · 03-17-2009, 11:33 PM

That's great-looking, thanks, BG.

>>> These sort of simple graphics (like sword and symbols) are better when you do it in 3D..

Or in a program like Illustrator.
