Station Patches

Post by Atlanta-Ned » #309252

Alright, not everyone is going to be satisfied with the patches, so I'll just post em here and any updates/feedback I get on them will be rolled in eventually.

Anyone wishing to use these: Please contact me on IRC or here and I'll work with you to get you the highest quality image best suited for your use-case.


26/6/17 - Initially posted. Omega Station is not included in the line-up.

Box Station
The very spirit of the game is evident with the Box Station patch. An alternating background pattern of brown and grey evokes the spirit of Cargo (the department where I cut my teeth on Space Station 13). The motto, "'Ole Faithful'", emblazoned on a sea of "Nanotrasen Blue" in a polygon with 13 points calls to the station's long history of service to Nanotrasen.

Meta Station
Metastation was incepted as an alternative to the venerable Box station, and with time, has come into its own as a feature-complete, detail-rich map for Space Station 13. The patch is simple and to the point: Meta is the gold standard to which all other maps should be held.

Meta Station
"Efficiency Through Replication" is the motto for Delta Station, a recent addition to the map roster. Featuring a complex, twisting maintenance sector with nearly every department duplicated (symbolized with the double-delta symbols in the center), you can't stop Delta.

Pubby Station
Due to its small size, Pubby was built without a law office, thusly giving us our motto: "No Law But Ours". The crossed crowbar and wrench* embrace this and remind us that the crew, not security, hold the peace.

Cere Station
With an eight-pointed polygon for the eight rocks that make up Cere Station, the motto for this expansive station is "Take A Hike". 'cause buddy, you're gonna be walkin.

Central Command Station
Most shifts end when the shuttle docks at Central Command Station, the crown jewel of Nanotrasen's empire. In the same shape as the Nanotrasen logo, this patch and its motto, "Finis Subsinctus" (roughly: End of shift), evokes a feeling of wellness and safety. The reflected C's in the center resemble the symbol for infinity, reminding us that there are an infinite number of shifts and an infinite number of obstacles to overcome.

The cerestation logo feels very wide, it represents the map nicely

metastation one isn't plain because it's fucking metastation, and the metastation one certainly doesn't look like shit either

that's cause metastation isnt plain

it has the largest amount of useless fluff relative to its size/fluff items per area of any map

Here is your official criticism from the best opinion holder on the forums.

The delta one is the best, of all of them. Cerestation is also quite good, but could do with a bit more detailing. The solid red isn't doing it for me.

The metastation one is ok, but just ok. It could also do with a bit more attention. This goes for Omega and Pubby as well.

The central command one suffers in the same way and is boring.

The box one is bad. I get it, but it's not working. Especially the font in the bottom left. Perhaps instead of the square, rotate the square 45 degrees (but keep the BOX text angled probably)

thank you and you're welcome
