I am very happy to announce that we have begun working towards expanding All Quiet on the Martian Front! More details will be forthcoming in the near future, but I really wanted to tease a work in progress (read: not complete) teaser logo for the planned expansion. Let me know what you think!

Nice teaser. Glad to hear more is coming. One suggestion: Make the eagle more angular, bolder or geometric. I mean this in the nicest possible way, but the one on the logo now looks kinda squishy. For example: You get the idea. My $0.02 US These are all "stock images" from a free graphics website.

Looks like the Prussian Eagle or Austrian Eagle.

I don't intend to be overly critical but the bird on the emblem looks like a buzzard about to hit a windshield. It would be better to use one of the more classic Prussian eagle images posted by Boxholder.

Loyalist, I agree, except it looks more like AFTER it hit the windshield.
The description that you used was precisely my first reaction to the graphic. I just throttled it back a bit.
I don't usually get too harsh evaluating the work of others, but he did ask.
Great minds...

Not that I am over excited or anything but do you have a timescale for this?

It would be better to use one of the more classic Prussian eagle images posted by Boxholder. Thanks for the comments. I'm quite fond of the eagle that we are using. As far as classic, here is the Prussian Eagle (Most of the ones presented by Boxholder are very modern and 40k'ish):

Much better imo.

Yes. Much better.
Looks a lot less blobby (if that is a word).
The austere Gothic typeface used for the lettering might be better complemented with a bird that has more straight lines. A bit more consistent. However, that is an aesthetic preference. It is your logo, after all is said and done.
That is just $0.02US worth. Possibly worth less in your ZIP code.

Do you plan to release it as a printed format as well as a pdf? Hopefully the martians will also get some new tripods.

I'm so in for Europe being on the block. I've done workup on French, German, and Russian forces as well as my concept of the Venusians - admittedly using Khurasan figures for them. Look forward to whatever you guys decide

Look forward to whatever you guys decide Would you like 28 Rebel Miniatures 15mm Titan Marines sci-fi infantry (free)? I bought them as potential British Assault Infantry but they're too small compared to BEF troops. I decided not to get into 15mm sci-fi with them because I'm doing 15mm Anglo-Zulu War instead.

Gads would love them of coarse. My mailing address - *******. If you post those to me, I'll of coarse return you a check to cover whatever amount you seem fair - definitely the postage at least. Good stuff, thank you
