Title: Hovercraft art
Post by: Anonymous on March 08, 2005, 06:28:25 pm
Hovercrafts are missing distinctive art.

No ship's seal.
-Traditionally three elements are included: The ship's type, the ship's mission and the meaning/history of the ship's name. one (http://www.cvn70.navy.mil/facts/shipseal.htm) two (http://www.la-ex.org/View_Photos/1974_Christening/Ship_s_Seal/ship_s_seal.html) three (http://web.tampabay.rr.com/ussmtwhitney/LCC/seal.html)

-On the subject of seals, mottos are missing as well. Funny to have latin named ships without mottos. Hehe.

No nose art.
-Can be anything, really. examples (http://www.nose-art.net)

So... yeah. I know there are creative people out there. Submit sketches. Submit your ideas in words. Submit four color proofs. Whatever rocks your socks. Someone can translate your ideas into pretty pictures - even if your idea is in mspaint.

where's illuvy with his MSpain pictures? haha

i like this idea. i remember once mentioning putting something like this into the sigs, but i think we didn't because of the mass amount of moving from ship to ship and such, it's easier to change a few words in a sig than an entire ship's logo and such. but the idea itself would be kickass, especially if we animate the ./crew roster. maybe have a picture of the ship instead of the fields. click on the ship and you will get a layout of the ship, it's seal, members, etc. good deal. :D

i found that pic on google. if you want to see something rather random and quite ironic, go to google, type in "carpe diem seal" and select images. check it out:

Here are 5 different symbols I made a while back. They are not seals, but they look cool as a symbol for a ship. I can easily change the color of all of them. Let me know what you think. Thank you.

*NOTE*: You got to shrink them a little for them to look like they were intended to be looked at.

HOLY CRAP!!!!

I was thinking it looked like my son's Lego Bionicle...but none can fathom the coolness of Stong Bad.  I will have a one in his honor.

*wishes he had a Stong Sad to slap & a Cheat to.....um, cheat*

No, that's not a typo, a one is a very special thing :)
