Black Prophecy's Art Director Nick Ebenhoch has posted his 3rd Developer's Diary explaining the design approach to the factions of the game. Nick discusses the emblem used by the human faction and how their space stations are artistically simple due to humanity's hindered progression. Humanity isn't slacking though, as Nick goes on, he details the design of human fighter and capital ship with several accompanying images.
Read the full diary here. Discuss this and more on our forums.The faction logo used by the Humans to date is based on the emblem of NASAs successor that launched the first colony ships towards Mars 550 years ago. This emblem did not receive much attention for quite a while as the factions at that time had their own logos during the later colony conflicts. The logo received recent relevance as a sign of resistance and Humanitys origin through the coalition of the Humans in their fight against the new dominating races, the Tyi and the Genides.
