I like these...... you gotta great color scheme going on, and the whole north star is a great focal point.....9 i apologize if its not a north star.. thats just what it reminds me of.....

Definately something i would use. not that i'm going to ( i don't want to steal your sticker...lol) but great all the less...

Hey, these look really good. The design on the shoulder plates rocks, very cool! I'm not sure I like the star in the middle of the torso, not because of it's design, which really rocks too, but because it's overlapping the chainmail. I don't like any insigna overlapping chainmail, even official LEGO designs, just because it seems unrealistic to me. I mean, how does that insigna stay attached to the chainmail? Anyway, this is a really cool torso design, keep at it!

PS- just wondering, why do you use Upload You Images! instead of Brickshelf?

These look very nice. The only thing I am skeptical about is the use of both a fluer de lis and the star. I think that it would be better to have only one emblem, though I understand that you think it would look repetitive.

I like the colouration. It's both different and complimentary. As for the dual emblems, I think it works well enough myself.

EDIT: I also meant to say that I think the idea of dual emblems is rather unique for Lego. Most/all factions I've seen only display one emblem at a time. It's nice to see something a little different.

I really like these designs. The colors are great as well as the star. I agree with Nathan on the the insigna on the maille doesn't seem realistic. But heck, it's LEGO; have fun! They look really good. :D

First off, I get your point, how does it stay on? I guess it could be riveted :) Second, I've been useing uploadyourimages.com because I haven't got around to getting a BS acount yet, thats the only reason.

Ja_izzle- go ahead and use them if you want to, thats fine with me.

With regards to the images-on-chainmail issue, I agree in principle that it doesn't seem right, but I don't think that would be as much of a problem with these designs, as the insignia look like they'd be made out of gems as opposed to cloth or something like that.
