So I take it there were no takers? I've played around with some ideas for it, and couldn't think of any counter thing that I'd enjoy doing, but I did come up with a slightly different idea:

 

Bronze, silver and gold wings for certain number of wars with additional elements (ie a star) to mark number of wars in Aplha.

IE.:

One full round of war during peace - simple bronze wings

At least 5 wars during peace - simple silver wings

At least 10 (15?) wars during peace - simple gold wings

 

One full round of war during war - bronze wings with a star

At least 5 wars during war - silver wings with a star

At least 10 (15?) wars during war - gold wings with a star

 

examples for the lowest (bronze, no additional decals) version:

Well I'll take this as a "looking nice, make more shinies." ;-) And more Shinies I did. I couldn't decide on the exact design of the ones with stars - you can decide to use either one, or even both - as additional merit or maybe to scale number of wars.

If they are indeed decided to e used - let me know - I'll upload them on more stable account and provide source xcf files (they can get handy).

 

Cheers!

Great work BV.

 

/me wants to add them to my sig :)

 

 

Wouldn't these be more appropriate? ;-) :

The beauty of this design and reason why I thought it'd be interesting to do it, is that If any squadron is interested - it can be adjusted to them. So talk to your CO's and jump on the war-counter wagon ;-)

 

(this version for delta is a bit sketchy, if Delta officers would be interested - I'd add the star version and clean the sharp borders of images.

Ps: If you haven't yet, go make an artist thread in the Graphics section :D and perhaps consider joining the SotW, you can win 6 Million in prizes as long as there are 6 or more competitors.

Thanks for all the encouragement, Theophilos!

 

I think I will, although I'd have to fish for my work on the internet - I've had an HDD failure in last year so the stuff I don't back up - was destroyed. Besides, I'm not a signature guy - I made one for open SoTW on OWF because the theme was interesting, and was making 1 per candidate each election cycle in MHA (fun to do when you aim for negative PR for both candidates, hehe :) ). Most of the time I like assignments like this one - something for the alliance, maybe our allies (I'll have to find my anti IRON-TOP propaganda sig :trout: )
