wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted May 13, 2020 Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 (edited) There's a lot of overlap honestly. I'd say Mace, since Successor is like a subset of Macedonian in my mind (nobody jump on me for saying this please, lol). And you see the Macedonian 8 pointed star. In fact, I may remake the Mace civ emblem with the bottom one. Edited May 13, 2020 by wowgetoffyourcellphone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand If you take away the larger scratches, I think the tiny scratches will look fine. Keep the alpha channel so I can play around with what color could go there. I can then present to you guys an updated Macedonian emblem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wowgetoffyourcellphone Posted May 16, 2020 Report Share Posted May 16, 2020 Straighter, at an angle. Not curved. The curved makes it look feminine, like Aphrodite.

Lion.Kanzen Posted October 20, 2022 Report Share Posted October 20, 2022 (edited) From here I can use various techniques. The most effective are with tracing, and the easiest of them is automatic tracing. Why tracing? historical accuracy, Alexander once got annoyed with a drawing I made because it wasn't exactly the same.
