LoA-Phantom Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 just looking at ideas for things you think would look good, also what colors you think would look good let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MayoChiki Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 No offense but it looks like a 12 years old crew of ghetto gangsters. Make it more simple, don't fill the space with random layers. Flachbau and Kafonix 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoA-Phantom Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 no offence taken, im not a very artistic person i just liked the concept of making LoA out of weapons but I'm smart enough to know when i need help haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kampioen Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) Firstly, don't use a black background. Use the transparent background so that your crew emblem doesn't appear as a black square with stuff on it in-game if you know what I mean. Secondly, the flame coming out of the gun doesn't look like muzzle flash. You could try making it better but I'd leave it out altogether. Thirdly, I assume from your name it's supposed to say "LoA", that's not really clear. You would have to at least make the skull the same size as the other items, and I would make letters with the items in them, rather than simply using the items as letters. edit: I would also make the gun straight rather than at an angle because it would make it more clear that it's supposed to represent a letter.

LoA-Phantom Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 i have the tranparent background and its supposed to be LoA i'll try everything else you said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew4296 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) Don't just use random weapons and such. Really put some time and effort into it. Don't skimp out on stuff. Make use of the multiple layers. My display image is something I created in the Emblem creator. Took me a while before I came up with and finished it. It'll be worth it when you have an impressive emblem to show off. The one you posted in your OP does look like something a 12 year old would make, and you want to avoid that. EDIT: I want to add, don't overload it with stuff either. Try and keep it simple, but complex at the same time if you get my drift.

LoA-Phantom Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 again im really sh*tty with artistic stuff so general info doesnt help me too much aha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew4296 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 again im really sh*tty with artistic stuff so general info doesnt help me too much aha I'm not all that artistic myself. It might help if you have something else to take some inspiration from. That's what I did. You don't want to copy it though, just have it give you somewhat of an idea. My emblem turned out quite different to what my inspiration looks like. It is slightly similar, but quite different at the same time. You don't have to do it in one sitting. Just work on it for a bit, leave it then come back to it and edit it again until you like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k33g Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 If you're set on the "LoA" theme there's not much I can say to help you. IMO, your current graphic has too much going on, and lacks symmetry. I used to do the same thing when I first started my crew. I had an elephant with some ninjas in the background LOL it was pretty lame. I prefer something simple as an emblem, my current one is The Hundreds "atom bomb", looks pretty sweet on my slammed rides. Had to get that through the SVG 'glitch' , idk if you can still do that. I can never make something I'm happy with through the creator, kind of lame tool imo. But if you like what you got currently, just stick with it man. Just my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoA-Phantom Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) My actual loa logo is sick but I can't get the abg glitch working, I have to use the creator and yeah def sticking with the loa theme I like the concept but my execution is poor, that's why I need all the help I can get lol Edited July 16, 2014 by LoA-Phantom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colagamerXD Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 I can't help you much, but a tip: Try, and learn lol I'm just gonna leave some of my Emblems here for possible inspiration: CRGS is added with SVG, the rest is selfmade One of my favorites Do something like that and expect the skull (like seen above) but your LoA or something Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoA-Phantom Posted July 18, 2014 Author Share Posted July 18, 2014 this is what i ended up with for now, any other suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WesternMotorcycleCo. Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 this is what i ended up with for now, any other suggestions? Unless I knew the crew was "LOA" , I'd think it was just called LA from the emblem. The skull is too small Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
