Title: Logo Model/artwork request
Post by: darthcommanderman on September 22, 2017, 12:36:57 pm
Hi! I just got a new pc and I'm itching to put it into my arcade machine and play Diaspora. I have to finish it first!

I'm working on the artwork now, and wondering if it might be possible to get a copy of the model/artwork used for the Diaspora logo? any help or other cool hi-res images might also be helpful!

Thanks kindly!

D.

Thanks so much for the response! I'm specifically making the marquee at the moment, so I was hoping to get a 3ds file (etc) which I could modify to read "Arcade Galactica". I'm working my way through this tutorial below at the moment, and starting with a very large resolution for ~6" x 34" printout.

I'll be sure to post back when I have progress. In the meantime if somebody does get back to me with whatever source/vector/3d file they are using it could be a great help.

Cheers!   :D

Oh, that font looks much more accurate to the new series version of the logo than the TOS-inspired one I have. Thanks for the link!

In any case, I was making the logo 3D models bespoke. It seemed more reasonable to type the text then run the same set of extrusions and bevels on each title than to model all 26 letters (with variations for how they can connect) and then plug them together in 3D. And since you're printing it and not animating it, you don't really need it to be a 3D model. I think that tutorial is the way to go for your needs.
