Hey there folks.\u00a0 We have an interesting new type of art that we’re going to be showing off over the next few months that I’m really excited about.\u00a0 All of my favorite fantasies have symbolic sigils\u00a0or house banners or symbols of the gods\u2014things of that nature.\u00a0 A while back, Francois (our logo designer), had the fantastic idea to do banners for Tellest, and we weren’t ready for them yet.\u00a0 Today marks the first push forward toward that though!\u00a0 And what better city to start with than Atalatha, the central hub of the earlier Tellest stories?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We started with something pretty basic.\u00a0 From what I knew of heraldry, I started putting together a few different concepts for our half-dozen sigils that we were going to work on.\u00a0 For Atalatha, a golden phoenix on a blue background seemed like it would fit the feel of the “golden city.”\u00a0 Francois delivered an awesome concept, but he didn’t stop there.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Francois ended up giving us an awesome set of the sigils with expanded effects.\u00a0 This is a version of the sigil with a metallic embossing, on a canvas-like material.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This one is also a sort of flag-like material, but the symbol isn’t metallic.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a cool one.\u00a0 I imagine this is like a tile that’s been lost to time that once sat outside a prominent building.\u00a0 Wear and tear somehow makes the piece look even cooler.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This effect is my absolute favorite, across the board, for all of the sigils that Francois did.\u00a0 That’s why this one is getting the featured status.\u00a0 Big thanks to Francois for all his work on this project.\u00a0 He did an awesome job that we were really happy with.\u00a0 I’m definitely going to get him involved in more of this stuff.\u00a0 Stay tuned for the next sigil in a few weeks.<\/p>\n

Bonus<\/strong>: If this kind of thing tickles your fancy, how about a version of the painted sigil that’s sized for mobile phones?<\/p>\n
