How do you like it? Of course its just a preliminary and we'd have to make a more cthonic looking one (this looks to man made) but you get the idea.
perhaps a parody of the shark normally seen on old fighter planes? It would make it look much less man made and the drawn out texture would add a hint of "flare" to the ship.
Like mine more.

very nice, defiantly the third faction's symbol
Where did we all get this idea that the third faction's going to be based off of phoenixes?
I'd like to see that as an insignia for a Scion faction.

It does not fit the Scion nature. As for the third faction, a phoenix is in the correct mythological vein and unlike the Hadeans is not just two superimposed letters. No other reason, for me that is.
The phoenix would be more correct if the third faction rose out of the ashes of a destroyed Icarus, instead of simply leaving.
As it is, it doesn't make much sense, to me, anyway.
well we don't need to be absolutely 100% correct on everything we do here VSMIT. Sometimes its fun to just go with what seems cool.
I'll admit now that I would very much like to use that, whatever the mythology says.
Hows this? How did you make yours?

Vector shape tracing and then some custom vector shapes. Mine is 100% scalable to any size.
looks neat, perhaps we could use both symbols, one for buildings the other for units of something of the like.
Or...I could Change the colors in mine and have a scion insignia.
also a good idea.
Symbology is just one of my many talents. Provide me with a description of what kind of logo you want, or a detailed description of the thing you want me to make it for and i'll draw it.
For example, if someone could link my lazy self to a detailed description of the third cthonian-based faction, I would appreciate it.
BTW: Vector graphics are awesome. NK1's vector drawing would be suitable for a water-based race, for example.
can you recommend a vector graphics program other than gimp? I'm looking for something small.

Maybe a nice Gibson EB-O bass with a cherry-wood finish smashing through the hull of hedoux!

Photoshop does vector graphics really well even though it isnt primarily a vector graphics program like Adobe Illustrator. Speaking of that, which program did you use to do your graphic, NK1?
