If you solve these two (the first pic and the war animation) I guess you can have different "logos" for each country, I'll give it a try.

well, i am not a graphics expert but would those frames be eliminated if the logo is made large enough to cover it? i tend to guess that it wouldnt but if that's the case the frames will be there whatever shape you make the logo (whether circular, shield, square, etc).

i also like the 5th batch the best by the way.

this is taking a bit longer than I expected, I'm too picky with the shields, just gotta look right... :)

somewhat better. :)
Yes, but imho they still have too much contrast between the bright and dark zones. And the strong illumination somewhat blurs the details in the upper left corner.

EDIT: More precisely, I think the dark zone is OK, teh problem is with the bright zone

Looking good BJ! The new set of batches are looking good too. There is a contrast between the light and the dark, but maybe thats a good thing? Otherwise the shield might look a little 'flat' and 2D (I don't know i am no expert of course).

Have you managed to sort out the frame problems yet (or any-one else for that matter!) or are you just concentrating on producing the shields (which we all eagerly await of course).

Will you be providing some sort of supports for the shields (that may cover some of the frame probs). though the diplomatic stuff would need some re-doing.

oh well, keep it up. One things this the most eagerly awaited graphics package since gumphs.

yours, still cant stop drooling, and Iam getting funny looks.

yea, just as Ayeshteni asked, have you managed to solve the 'frame' problems?

It seems that I added a dropshadow by mistake... :eek:o Fixed...

Haven't thought about a 'frame' for these yet...

I guess you could do a simple 'golden' frame, something like this...
(needs more work, I know...) :)

EDIT: Just noticed that the blue background makes the shield look a bit different...

Looking superb BJ, the dark frame sets the shield out from the background nicely.

However, what I meant by the frame 'problem' is for example when you are at war, the standard renaissance frame shows up (red) around your shields. See screenies at top(ish) of this page. Thats why I mentioned (but dont think it would work as the shields would be too large and such) putting 'supports' to hide this wrap-around (tho as mentioned the diplomacy stuff would have to be redone, so its probably not feasable).

... just ignore my ramblings, hehe, I am no artist so I dont know what i am talking about:D

But things are looking great:cool:

yours
