A need: TCM logo, attn photoshoppers Options

[Team Black]

Okay this mod needs a spiffy logo. Let me see what you've got.
If you're good with photoshop or anything post it here, and then when we have a couple we'll choose the best one.
If I can, I'll see if I can bust out my 1337 MS paintage for yeh guys XD

Our theme is the scrin for part one, but still keep in mind that there's going to be a part II earth invasion<

[Lightstorm]

i was thinking something like
THIS
except with blue tiberium and TCM instead of EA

[Blacksilence]

i could give it a try with adobe after effects 7.0 or paint shop pro

[Roani52]

That EA with tiberium behind it, could be a pretty good idea.

[vOi!king ship]

No EA. Go for classic WW style, only modernised.

[Ixith]

I agree with El Deadlyto (lol almost called you Gosho....sorry)

IMO i think the TCM should be something somewhat similar to our logo on the forums. which is that destroyed like city with lightning in the background in which i think daTS had made. yet with keeping that common logo that WW used for TS.
I think it should be something similar to that but with tiberium in it. and of all sorts to if possible.

also remember the logo should be in the special font to

here's a good one (found it in the CNCsource gallery...good stuff there)

...unless we're lookig for a logo, or icon.

we could go with the classic C&C box style and have a destroyed city picture with lightning and tiberium and stuff in the guys visor, we'd need a new outfit for him though and I'm not sure how original it would be since TO has kinda taken that design.

ZWOW, thats a cool helmet.

[Lin Kuei Ominae]

the idea of using a helmet is ok, but because the theme is the scrin we should take a Scrin helmet.
something like this (i dont know how a Scrin look like, so this is my idea how they could be)
 scrinhelm.png ( 508.67K ) Number of downloads: 3

to improve this, a reflection of the earth in the visor could be added, as well as some kind of command-bridge in the background.

[Lightstorm]

coolness. doesn't really look too helmetie though. I'd just go with the classic helmet and have scrin units in the reflection.

[Crimsonum]

You want to see a Scrin? Here is the Scrin, as how Westwood originally planned them to be.

[jadems]

Oooh, the bottom right one with what LKO said.
And remember, things that do not come from our universe should not look human-esque

[Crimsonum]

I always loved that crab-like creature called "Wrix the mobile builder"

[Roadwarrior]

heres my idea for one
 TWCM.png ( 81.94K ) Number of downloads: 1


i think its awsome

[jadems]

Whoa that would be pretty good for Part2. Just make the helmet stand out a bit more to draw attention to the reflection.

[Slender Mang]

[Lightstorm]

alright heres what we do:
we have a close up of a helmet lying on the ground, your close enough that you can't see much but the helmet but you can see that the helmet is lying on a piece of debris, behind the helmet you can see the sickly yellow sky. the helmet is cracked and worn with veins of tiberium growing through it, in the reflection you see a the primal gliding down a wrecked street, blasting a trail of wrecked units as it goes, with GDI unable to stop its rampage

[Team Black]

nah don't show GDI, just show the primal -

That's a good idea, ja, now all we need is a photoshopper

[Roadwarrior]

did you like mine?


oh and i could be A photoshoper

[Lightstorm]

if it wasn't so tiny, and the reflection is the same as TSO's. so i took a bunch of different suggestions and roughly mashed them together with a rock.

[Roadwarrior]

how big should it be? "and the reflection is the same as TSO's"what do you mean?

and i have 5 different versions made of that

[Lightstorm]

as in this:


and it should be at least 500x500 probably 7-800 would be best.

[Team Black]

o crap, we can't use that

The TO people will poke so much fun at us if they see us copying their idea...

No primal - instead, let's use that big flying hula-hoop thing that CNC3 has, instead OK

[Lightstorm]

okay so other then that is my idea good?

oh and here's teh mothership:

this looks way cooler then how it ended up ingame

Yar, I like that idea

someone post an ingamer of that mothership, to compare? (I might want to voxelize this, if I have some time..)

[Space_Marine]

what about vxls for me?

i just felt like doing somthing so heres what i got. tell me if you like it so far.

[Team Black]

Win! so far

I'd be thinking he would be looking up at the scrin ship though, instead eye level like the concept sketch.

Now we need something like a logo, or a sig maybe even an icon...

[tetnis shot ninj...]

well i guess i could put somthing else in the reflection!!!

or we could go with the full on friendship approach and give him just goggles!!!

[Lightstorm]

its REALLY good. the only changes i would make would be to put something i the background. (I'd but tiberium to explain the green glow) I'd also tint the image of the image of the mothership so it looks like a reflection and not a screen

This post has been edited by Lightstorm: Jun 25 2007, 11:57 PM

[Team Black]

yar, that is frikin awesome! xD

We gotta give him a reflection in his visor though, continuity with the CNC tradition

[Lightstorm]

well he looks like a pilot so he could be at eye level with it
i "tweaked" the image so it matches:

I can continue "tweaking" it if it needs to be changed

[tetnis shot ninj...]

how's it look now?

[Lightstorm]

AMAZING!! now we just need a title and we're all set!

[jadems]

That looks uber-awesome, but should ROSS be read backwards? And shouldn't we be able to see the mothership firing?

[Lightstorm]

an idea: make the top and bottom have green hexagons kinda like your sig but dimmer then have where it fades away have some of the lines highlighted in shapes to make it look like words while still being hexagons

[tetnis shot ninj...]

dont wory ill fix the letters, that was an accident when a put the half of the binoculars in.
and i kind of get what you mean lightstorm, but what word would i put?

[vOi!king ship]

Ub0r skillzorz u r showingz Tetnis.

I love it.

[Lightstorm]

the name of the mod...we need a name for the mod.

[Rico]

Heres a 6am job i did

Btw, i dont like the idea of using the Scrin Mothership from EA's CnC3, I think the design sucks

I don't see why it necessarily has to be a Scrin mothership

It could just be some anonymous Scrin vehicle/building the guy is staring at before he sets off his C4 and blows it to hell

[Team Black]

Well that's interesting, a little bit of everything (lose CABAL though, that's kinda messing it up.

That's a good concept for what I was thinking of, we need someone to make an uber spiffy version, maybe TSN can give his eh Nod/or gdi logo, and a full visor

this one's better

how's it look now?

[Team Black]

Yar, it was a concept only, miss.
I made it for the photoshoppern, so's they can get an idea of what we're planning in our heads.

[tetnis shot ninj...]

heres the best one, with the scrin mothership in the reflection, showing it firing and the "ross" reversed. now you just need to tell me what the title will be, or if you want somthing else in the reflection.

[Lin Kuei Ominae]

Thats an amazing work TSN! Beautiful colored and shaded.
But 2 things.
The helmet has to much dents imo. 1 or 2 ok and some scratches. Now it doesn't looks like a robust helmet.
Does the company Ross London still exists in 2050 in a tiberium contaminated world, where england is already lost? How about inventing a company.
Like "Opticore" or "Global Research Labs (GRL)" "Made in Blue Heaven". Blue Heaven: one of the last Blue zones. Just an idea.

None the less an awesome work.

or maybe just "GDI" and some numbers for the model

[tetnis shot ninj...]

ok i made it have less scratches and put "GDI" on the goggles, but just look at the previous one because im tired of putting new ones up. but thanks for the comments and has anyone thought of a name yet?

[Blacksilence]

Looks all great to me.

[SeekSomethingNew]

loose the scrin ship, dont look right... add say some juggernauts or something. and its needs Tiberium, Download the C&C3 Fan Pack, it has a Uber Res Tiberium Image. oh and if you want a Hi Res Tiberian Sun logo then give me a shout

This post has been edited by TSHyper: Jul 7 2007, 07:41 PM

[tetnis shot ninj...]

im sorry but i have no idea how tiberium is going to be in the image, it will most likely not happen. and if you can find a good pic of a juggernaut and the majority says to put it in then i will, but now the majority says it should be the scrin mothership.

[Lightstorm]

i was thinking you could have tiberium veins growing across the surface of the helmet.

[Lin Kuei Ominae]

that's a good idea. but don't make too much veins. It should be visibile but not to excessive. 1 or 2 veins should be enough.
And yes, let the scrin mothership, since the mod is about the earth facing the scrin.
The only way i would agree concerning the Jugger is, if you make a small Titan or Jugger under the Mothership, that fires a beam down to the Jugger/Titan. But this could become very small and this way to excessive too.

[Rico]

The design of the Scrin mothership by EA is crap in my opinion, use something else, make up your own scrin unit, use the scrin carrier from TS or use a GDI unit, either way get rid of that horrible scrin ship.

[Corsair]

It looks great in my opinion... but its not my mod, so I really have no say

[jadems]

It's a community mod. Everyone gets a say

How about we do the soldier looking down a cliff at a Tiberium field and behind the field is a juggernaut firing.

[Lightstorm]

try to find a good high quality image of a juggernaut firing. you will probably fail.

I'd say just keep the mothership or use the TS scrin ship but personally i have no problem with the mothership, its actually pretty cool

[jadems]

It doesn't have to be that good quality because it'll just be cropped down to be just that small behind a field of tiberium.
And should tiberium be Westwood style of EA style? I prefer Westwood with the pods

i dunno that might just be too chees. why not just keep the stupid scrin ship. or use the TS one but this mod is about a scrin invasion it should have scrin

[ChielScape]

the first part of the mod would be the scrin part, so using a scrin ship would be the obvious choise. it would also need to be reflected in a scrin soldier's visor.

that might be too weird, we want the aliens to to be very alien looking so they might not wear helmets. I'd just keep it with the classic look and add a new twist. I'm fine with the one we've got now. if it ain't broken don't fix it.

[ChielScape]

the aliens have warschips -> they are technologically advanced creatures -> they have combat oriented equipent, including armor and weapons -> they will most probably have visors.

they should not look alien, they should look like they could actually exist. and that might be far closer to earth's lifeforms than you think. and probably also far closer to humans.

still it might be too weird, unless we give them human looking heads their helmets wouldn't be recognizable as such and would ruin the effect. or better idea: ask Petro what they wanted on the box!

[Carnotaurus]

Do we need another stupid Visor logo? These should be the LEAST of the mod's priorities, by far. Get a damn unit list before we start talking logos.

[Lightstorm]

okay so i was thinking. the helmet idea is cool and all but not really very huge. i was thinking we need some awe inspiring movie poster type logo as well. well after watching Titan AE along with Code Lyoko and some Battlestar Galactica I think I've got something. while watching CL they had William (the minor villain) riding on the back of a flying monster, it gave me the idea of Naia riding on the top of the kodiak. i started drawing that, then decided to but a wrecked city under it, and from there it got more and more involved. right now i have the outline of the tiberium done as well as the wrecked city but i can't get the depth looking right on the Kodiak, if someone has a kodiak voxel screenshot or an image of the SG-1 Daedalus facing front at eye level it would be great.

here is a 30 second MS paint sketch of what it will look like:

the Kodiak is flying forward with Naia (stick figure) riding on top, its running from the tiberium which is growing and starting to wrap around it. behind the tiberium is the Earth with just a thin crescent visible and the ion cannon (which will be smaller in the real one) firing at the surface. at the bottom we have the wrecked city with lightning strikes fading in from the darkness above. the purple lines are ships, scrin, nod, and GDI. and to finish it off there are the eyes watching it all, in the final they will be robotic looking and will represent Cabal. plus to top it off. i think we could have reflections the faces of the modders in the giant tiberium.

only problems are:
1. someone else will have to color it with photshop or something cause i can't
2. i have no scanner an even if i did the paper i'm using would probably be too big to fit in it so i need to take it somewhere to get it scanned.
3. if we put the community's faces in the tib someone will have to do that also, i can make outlines for it but i doubt i could draw much detail into it and i can't render
