Thanks Art, continuing with the Delta Squad story, I redid the insignia to reflect what it would look like when the unit became part of the Imperial Army after the end of the Clone Wars.

Here is the history:


"I hate this. And we've got some new guy taking Sev's place. It's temporary, though. He'd better understand that."
?Scorch, on his new life as an Imperial Commando.
Not long after the conclusion of Republic action on Kashyyyk and the issuing of Order 66, which branded the Jedi traitors to the Republic who were to be shot on sight, the Clone Wars would come to an end when the old Republic was transformed into the new Galactic Empire, under the leadership of the now Emperor Palpatine. Nearly eleven-hundred days after the Battle of Geonosis, the three remaining members of Delta Squad found themselves stationed at the Imperial Army Training Center on Centax-2, one of the moons of Coruscant and the location of the secret Spaarti cloning cylinder-based second clone army that Palpatine had created. There, they would continue to lament the loss of Sev, especially in the face of the revelation that although Omega Squad members Atin and Corr had deserted the Grand Army, Darman and Niner had joined Delta in the new Imperial Army because Darman had refused to leave a badly wounded Niner behind on his own.[

Three weeks after the formation of the new Empire, Delta Squad—with a new replacement for Sev among their ranks—gathered at the 501st Legion headquarters on Coruscant with a number of other former Republic commandos and Advanced Recon Commandos for an audience with Darth Vader. There, Vader reformed the Republic's former special forces soldiers as the Imperial Commando Special Unit, an elite unit within the Imperial 501st Legion that would be tasked with hunting down Jedi who managed to escape Order 66, along with clone deserters, Jedi sympathizers, and other Imperial dissidents. Their serial numbers' "RC" prefix replaced with an "IC" to denote their new position as Imperial Commandos, the squad would also find themselves given a different and more numerically-based name, similar to the former Omega Squad being deemed "Squad 40". Although initially under the command of the Emperor's Hand, Sa Cuis, the Imperial Commando Special Unit would be taken over by Imperial Commander Roly Melusar—a native of the planet Dromund Kaas and a man with a firm hatred of all Force-users—following Cuis' death. Though Fixer was impressed by Melusar's earnest style of command, it would be Melusar's zealous hate for the Jedi and all other beings who could wield the Force that would lead Scorch to tag Melusar with the nickname of "Holy Roly", a name that would in fact stick among the ranks of the Imperial Commando Special Unit.

(From Wookieepedia)

The insignia was re-colored black and red to look more "Imperial" in nature, as well as replacing the Republic Roundell with the Roundell of the First Galactic Empire and replacing the green Light Saber with a red one. The "Delta lightning bolt triangle remains unchanged from the original insignia. ENJOY!!!!

Just for fun, this is Delta Squad as seen through the helmet of a Predator. The photo manipulation was inspired by Chapter 1 of the fan made Star Wars series I.M.P.S.

You can watch the I.M.P.S. series here http://www.impstherelentless.com/tek9.asp it is really one of the best fan made series out there right now!

OK, it's NOT Star Wars, but I thought I would share this you fine people to see what you think. It's the insignia for Xaviers School for Gifted Youngsters from the Marvel Comics X-Men series, it was done by special request. Any comments are, as always most welcome!

Thanks Fiala, I love your work as well!

Now for something simple, I've been messing around with possible t-shirt or sweat shirt designs as well as some stationary for the Star Wars Universe, here's what I came up with so far. Please let me know what you think!

Daggone, speechless again! I am wasting my work time again!

I just spent the last half hour mezmirized by your graphics. I love the Tshirt designs and sure would love to see what you could come up with for an Imperialshipyards one.

That Stationary you created looks great too. Makes me wish I liked to write notes more as I would have me some of that in SW forms!

That last rendering of that Slave I going after the Falcon was great too. Time for the fp again!

That's a superb Tshirt logo, perfect for a sweatshirt.

You know, you really should put these in Photobucket so that  we can see them displayed on the forum.

Those look like embed codes to videos, VA.


That is a sharp design and Jules is right.  That would look perfect on a sweatshirt.
Here it is as hosted by flikr. Weird that the colors are inverted.
