Describe how your drawing was created:

The name of your guild and a brief description of the crest: Banned
I wanted to make a crest who looked like the real ones, simple, instead of one with so much detail as some ive seen. Tried to inspire mine in the ‘proto crest’ to compare sizes
…The only thing I had in mind was a cross, meaning restriction (being banned)… I ended animating it like with a small screen, also remembering those "keep out tape"
I tried to add a "pixel" look to the screen cos I like it (the character is my SK character )
URL for progress picture:
first idea - color idea - quick animation
progress 1 - progress 2 - progress… lol
URL for finished picture:
- animated crest (maybe takes a while to load, the animation is pretty heavy... wait a lil bit please :>)
- with the character
(I wanted to animate the big version, but it would be too heavy for a gif x_x )

El nombre de tu gremio y una breve descripción del emblema: Banned
Como los demás creaban detallados crest yo quería hacer algo que se pareciese a uno realmente… Con un diseño simple. Intenté inspirarme en el ‘proto crest’ para comparar medidas.
…Solo se me pasaba por la mente una cruz que pudiese significar “banned” (restricción?)… y acabe animándolo como una pantalla, imitando las cintas de ‘prohibido el paso’ :B Probé a añadí algunos detalles en pixel ya que me gusta de ello lol
(la silueta del personaje soy yo)

The name of your guild and a brief description of the crest:
Curse-bearers. A pair of elongated hands grasping for the curse-status symbol all inside glowing lines similar to the ones that give the Gran Faust/Divine avenger their distinct look to represent the main focus of the guild: understanding, controlling and utilizing the strongest status effect in the game: curse. All members must have a weapon that can inflict the status (Sealed sword, Faust or Gran Faust, either is fine) and a piece of equipment that gives resistance to the status (either from normal armor attributes, UV's or trinkets). While not it's not necessary to carry either all the time, it is requested that you have at least one of each to join (though always having one on is recommended!)

Whoops! I ended up doing a full Achievement of Arms, because it was too much fun. Unfortunately I haven't been able to add the tinctures (or hatching), and Strangers are not at all receptive to being posed rampant as supporters or otherwise. All heraldic banter aside (the full blazon can be read below the finished image), the arms of the Valkyrian Guard have been formed by marshalling our basic guild badge/s with those of the founding GMs (which were all made up for the occasion).
Knight: Sarochka
Medium: Preliminary sketches and final draft worked in carbon and wood-pulp, then converted to pixels (i.e. pixie magic).
Guild: Valkyrian Guard
Crest description:
Symbolically, the valkyrjur represent the spirit of our guild; in the first quarter a fierce warrior and chooser of the slain - selecting great warriors for further training to oppose the coming threat (Swarm/Ragnarok, this analogy writes itself, wot), and in the fourth quarter a valkyra at rest in the great hall, where warriors were traditionally tended to (as is our wont as a close-knit group).
Second quarter is Founder Jinndukken's personal escutcheon, the lamp in chief representing light and knowledge, as well as canting on the name jinn/djinn; the chain represent duty, commitment, and service to the public; and the torch and sword crossed saltire can both be read straight (courage and force, enlightenment and civilisation), or as satire (see: Conrad).
Whelp! That's two sentences. Further symbololist readings can be found in the notes on the finished emblazon.
Note: This achievement is traditionally displayed inverted, to honour the antipodean origins of its Founding Members.
Preliminary progress: Worked on finest artists' "Reflex" printing paper
Finished emblazon: Quarterly, gules and azure, the first...
Signed: Compliance is rewarded. For your safety, please use the metrics indicated.
Aaand a size comparison because I finished up and thought, hey, good thing I didn't fill in the scale mail on those valkyrjur.
Prize preference: Love Puppy

The guild I'm in is Reign of Chaos, an End-Game guild that I'm glad to be a member of. In my guild crest, I drew 5 of the main people who represent us, our guild masters Meida, Thengel, and Eldibs, along with two of our officers, Peepa and Sypsy, and then created my abstract design as the background.

Paint Tool Sai for Sketches and Planning, Photoshop CS6 for Final Image and rendering
The name of your guild and a brief description of the crest (1-2 sentences):
Mitternacht - Quite. Indeed. Indubitably.
For the guild crest, I created a Snarby-dragon to show that we love the game, and will always remember the lessons learnt all the way from back when we first started playing. It's a dragon because we are a group of friends whose playing style is always improving, ever evolving. The crescent moon is a reference to the guild name, which I love, and the wine glass is there to show that we are fearsome (we have teeth! and claws!), but classy.

Nottheanswer representing <Sarcasm>
Crest created using GIMP
Progress picture showing vector paths used to create the crest
The english "sarcasm" comes from the Greek "σαρκάζειν" literally meaning "to rend the flesh"; as such <Sarcasm>'s crest is based off of the crest of flesh-rending beast family. But as all sarcasm must be tempered by seriousness, so are the gashes tempered by a bandaid. Below is a pseudo-HTML start tag for sarcasm with no corresponding end tag, representing the (hopefully) undying nature of both the guild <Sarcasm>, and sarcasm as a mode of humor.
Preferred prize is a Mewkat Monster Pocket, or an ingame hug from Nick.
I had connection problems, so I tried again this morning. Please accept this entry. (Especially after I went through all the effort to find out how my scanner worked :P).
