I want to hold a Competition for a full remake of all the SAPD Badges, really looking for some good talent poured into this, these will be used for time and time on end, showing your creativity for a long time. These badges will be officially stickied for SAPD, with the creators credits on it. :)
so heres an example of a previously made Sergeant badge:

previously made Captain badge:
(http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff289/CarharttFighter/SAPDCaptainMedal.png)
These badges must be created for 'SAPD' for the following ranks:
- Chief
- Deputy Chief
- Captain
- Lieutenant
- Sergeant
- Senior Officer
- Officer
- Cadet
What it must include:
-Argonath flag (Click to view (http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg31/EliteTerm/Designs/ArgonathFlagcopy.png))
-Rank name
-Your creativity!!
-Every badge should follow similar style
-Backgrounds MUST be invisible (PNG Preferred)
The badges CAN be presented one by one, for opinions, but the final decision of the Winner will be announced once the person has presented all badges in one go!
PRIZE: 550k (SA:MP)
MAY RISE!
-
Great idea chief now its up to designers show ur skills lets go ...
-
Hold on a second, I want to propose using this version of the flag instead of the one Leroy provided:
(http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg31/EliteTerm/Designs/ArgonathFlagcopy.png)
Reason being that it's larger, and more detailed.
-
Leroy's is more detailed, and has a flame or something just above the tree ;)
This should be interesting, there should be a few good badges!
-
EliteTerm, updated to my link!
Lets get building, shall we guys? :D

Anyone starting any production of these badges?

Please note, this is not my work, I just edited it.
The rank name is looking a little dead, I'l fix that up.
-
Looking good Sisko!
-
Doesn't look bad, for a fix, work on the background, currently it looks a bit like a stone, rather than a type of metal, also yes, the Rank names should be fixed and placed in the same area as each other and the background color of the badges should be either gold or silvery, overall looking great, really like the tree in the middle, would even be good to use the tree rather than the Argonath flag. The shadow may need some small tweaks, but looking good Sisko, lets see your true work :D
-

What do you think of this before I start coloring?
-
Maybe periods between the DCOP, so its clear it is Deputy Chief Of Police, and not a mis-spelling of cop :cop:
-
(http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o60/maggiendl/bad2.jpg)
What do you think of this before I start coloring?
Should be silver metallic background, Where it says 'DCOP' we can convert to 'SAPD', The tree bit should have an attractive color, perhaps a dark blue or red, finishing with very light shadow behind the badge, making it look more 3D. Also remove the little star near the tree.
You can try it out, seems good.
Or you can try re-edit this, change the Argonath flag to the Argonath tree;
(http://i34.tinypic.com/2e5tzjk.png)
Changing the background colour of the badge to dark silver would suit it more, text would also be silver colour, behind the black strip.
-
Current progress on coloring.
(http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o60/maggiendl/current.jpg)
-
Looking good. By the way, having the 'Gondor Tree' in the circle in the middle will be cool.
-
I'm running out of coloring ideas. Share your thoughts.
(http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o60/maggiendl/Badge.png)
-
Here is my idea
Cadet / Officer / Senior Officer - Bronze badge like the one you just made for Dept. Chief
Sergeant / Lieutenant - Silver Badge
Captain / Dept Chief / Chief - Gold Badge
-
I'm running out of coloring ideas. Share your thoughts.

Well,It is kind of classy.
-
Perhaps where it says (The background of the writing, not the writing itself) 'Argonath RPG', 'Police', 'Rank' and 'SAPD' you could color either gold or silver, to make it stand out.

Sisko, also the text should be re-aligned, its slightly off/crooked compared with the background. Add silver to the badge too. ;)

For more suggestions, try here; http://arpd.argonathrpg.com/forum/index.php?topic=18101.0 (http://arpd.argonathrpg.com/forum/index.php?topic=18101.0)
-
i saw a nice badge what suits well to the arpd and sapd imo.. so heres my try :D
(http://i56.tinypic.com/2hmetty.png)
:ps: from cadet to sergeant i would make such silver badges... from lieutenant to chief i suggest to have gold badges
-
Looks good Vice, try smoothen the edges of the badge though, also instead of 'San Andreas' perhaps 'S A' as San Andreas looks bit long on the badge
-
you meant something like this Leroy? :
(http://i56.tinypic.com/mn2be9.png)
I did what you requested.. not sure if its better now

This one looks extremely awesome for me.
-
EliteTerm's badge seems too awesome, I believe it's the best till now.
-
Just so you know, this is NOT the final work. There are several goofs on the badge which will be corrected if Leroy likes it/ selected it. This is only to show what the badge would look like.
-
Elite, fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuu*k, that is ozz' man!

(http://i56.tinypic.com/10xbs48.png)

-
Lol, Sisko's eagle.
(http://www.tolartexas.com/Police_Badge.gif)
lol Universal Eagle
lol very similar badge to Siskos
lol Rafael didn't research
-
lol rafael was owned. :lol:
-
Not bad yourself, Hank.
Nice touch with the Argonath Statues. ;)
-
Looks good Vice, instead of ARPD logo just go with the Argonath tree, will match the setting IMO
-
how about this?:
(http://i53.tinypic.com/29e4x14.png)
same style... just i used some new "models" for the argonath statues... they are similar to Aragorn and Gandalf ;)
-
The competition is getting heated up :D
Well I am unsure on the feedback of this badge, but i think you should try make the Argonath Statues gold.
-
heres the golden edition:
A)
(http://i55.tinypic.com/25kiohd.png)
B)
(http://i55.tinypic.com/6tgv0l.png)
if we arrive to a final concept, ill do major fixing on the texture
:ps: i rather to gold :D
-
I love the second version Hank.
@EliteTerm
Yours looks awesome too mate, however the black pad on the badge looks strange ;)
-
Looks good.
-
after consultation with Leroy heres the new style:
(http://i53.tinypic.com/iwsys8.png)
:ps: texts and further editing will be done on the next week... when i passed my exam
-

Anymore changes Elite?

Not really.. the badge's good as it can get.. I can't think of anything else to add on there.
-
Still waiting for Vice, any more updates?
Sisko still in development?

Mouse broken. On vacation and out traveling soon, so I won't be able to participate any longer, unfortunately.
-
The badge is supposed to reflect the officer's rank so maybe elite and vice you can focus more on making the rank text?Also make it texured itself :P
-
well im on vacation too.... but my badge reached the final concept
only the "San Andreas Police Department" text is missing, what i can add anytime.... and ofc the main title the rank can be changed to whatever (cadet to chief). I can give it a final form once you made your choise.
-
The SAPD will vote between two badges, entries can still be made before the vote is announced!
-
Iv been inspered not too long ago, and I had to create this badge..... np If the voting is closed

I'll get him on this project at least tomorrow.

One comment about EliteTerm's..
OMG :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :wow: :wow: :wow: :wow:
-
Any progress with the competition? It has been a while since we had an update on this.
-
Aswome ! ;)
-
Actually some official announcements should be made from the SAPD... in all logo topics, not just this one.
-
Sorry for bump...
Whats happening with this? Did anyone get paid or what?
-
as far I know.. theres still no official badges choosen for SAPD
..and no, noone was payed
-
Leeeeeeroy ran off with my 50k then bro D:
-
Leroy brought along with the money :cool:
-
its actually funny, and weird in the same time
:drunk:
-
Serious business now, he owes me 50k
-
I'm not sure who won but i will give the briefcase to the winner(s). Pffft Leroy..... :devroll:
-
Was wondering what happened to this contest :lol:
-
And it's quite disrespectful, since people put their time and effort into this...
-
Indeed Sisko.
-
I don't really mind the prize, donate it to the Discriminated Officers' Nationwide Union Team in recognition of ARPD Officers' rights to police the cities, and to prevent being discriminated across Argonath.
-
Cant this be locked?
-
Well, this is pathetic, good job SAPD.
-
(http://i56.tinypic.com/2hmetty.png)

-
Is there already a winner ?
If not, can we still upload the badges ?
