Title: Larger, higher-res faction/corp logos
Post by: Ken on 06 Sep 2010, 02:55
25 September 2010 UPDATE: This thread is directly related to the EVE: Iconocracy project (http://backstage.eve-inspiracy.com/index.php?topic=1146.0).  Discussion and such should head that way.

Hey I like! This might be able to tie in to making Caldari corp logos with Napaani maybe? Though logos like CBD and CS would be fundamentally changed....even for Gallente could be...

Marine Fédération, Douane Fédération, Union Fédérée des Gallente Premier...

Bleh...even if I'm not the "lolFrench" type, I think just sticking with English will be better lol...

Anyway, fantastic stuff from you again, inspiring!

As happy as I am to see one of the Cartel, if we also got one for the Republic Security Services... well, I'm just saying I'd share the joy. ;)

I also thought I'd have a go at beefing up the custom logos we have access to when creating a corp.  To that end, LDIS ...

Ken, are you still playing at all? Or do you have a character to which you anticipate returning?

I'd like to show my appreciation in an EVE-appropriate fashion.

These are awesome Ken, very nice gesture to the Backstage and RP community.

I don't have a home faction or corp though. I'm vewry sad.  :cry:

Pretty much impossible to play from where I am.  Characters are still training thanks to the lovely wife, however.  I'll be back next year sometime.  'Til then a forum warrior only.  Of course, Kenreikko Valitonen is still a registered capsuleer... momentarily in retirement though he may be.

Backstage can be your home faction, Ben.  Just you and the mods sitting around the kitchen table in your PJs with coffee/tea/biscuits/cookies/Zuzanna.

Also, got one more for the Angel groupies.  It's apocryphal, but figured someone could use it for a Cartel-theme alliance logo ::cough:: ::cough::  :)

With attentions turned to the Federation, I reworked the logo for Seriphyn's future place of work as CEO...

President
(Gallente Federation)

I was going for a glassy or crystaline look as that's the epitome of Gallente style, after all.

And, continuing with the Fed love...

Somewhat related, I'll put this here in case some folks don't know about it yet.

Deus Imperiosus Acies

Getting hi-res player corporation logos

Go to EVEGate

Find a corp logo, r-click on it, copy image URL

Result URL: https://image.eveonline.com/Corporation/xxxxxxxxxx_32.png

Change '_32'  to '_50' or '_128' or '_256' (max)

Enter that URL into a browser.

Viola!

Some examples:

Veto

PIE

CAIN

etc etc etc

Note that these images carry over transparencies.

Graelyn: Ah!  So we can get 256x256's of the player corp icons.  Excellent.  Thank you for the tip!  Some of the CCP stock is still a little rough though imo.

Vincent & Milo: Thanks guys!  The FNA logo is one of my favorites.

From here on, in the interest of screen space and clogging up the forum with directly linked images, I'll just be posting the products of this project over on deviantART (http://hegemon4hire.deviantart.com/).  Also, willing to take requests as to the logos folks would like to see most.

Love, so much...soooo much.

Maybe a...Black Eagles (http://wiki.eveonline.com/wikiEN/images/7/75/Blackeagles.jpg) one? That'll take the cake, honest >_>

THEN you can sate everyone else from the other factions  :lol:

I should pay Ken real money to make me ten logos of any future corps or groups I may operate in EVE, and beyond.

He's that good.

Thanks Krychton, Hamish, Aodha, Ben, and everyone! ^^

Working on those, Kyber.  I just put up a few Amarr logos and did a series of images (http://fav.me/d2yxzrc) based on the "Signs of Faith" chron (http://www.eveonline.com/background/potw/default.asp?cid=08-03-10), but I'm holding back any more postings to deviantART (http://hegemon4hire.deviantart.com/) for now while I put together something more... comprehensive.  Should be forthcoming in a week or so, my workload depending.  (Plus I keep getting distracted with story ideas...  :roll:)

That really is epic, in all aspects of the word. As an Amarr loyalist, I am no longer allowed to want anything else for Christmas.

Are you planning on doing the other factions at some point? Or was it "Just because I can?"
