Branding part II

After reviewing even more websites on branding, logos, etc. I came up with my own logo and banner, so to speak. Here it is in all its glory

Branding

This weekend I’m taking the time to develop some branding for Knightvision Productions. I was looking over at Sinister Adventures, the company by Nicholas Logue, and I liked how he has branded his different products. There’s a “synergy” there, that ties it all in to his main “Sinister” brand. Another company that I admire is Louis Porter Jr. Design, that guy has some great branding experience and knows how to put it all together. He’s not afraid to give insight as well on how to accomplish branding and what resources to find online or at the bookstore.

I was brainstorming with my wife yesterday on product brands for Knightvision. Here’s some of them: KnightLite, Vision Ventures, Vision Quest, and Quick Contacts. Most of them play on the Knightvision name and adventures. Obviously there still some tweaking to do on this.

Just my thoughts for today. If your in the USA, have a great Memorial Day, and if not have a great regular Monday.

Timberlimb’s

I’m not sure if these creatures will be a playable race or a monster. Here’s a sneek peak:

Timberlimbs

Environment

Timberlimbs are
mostly found in warm and wet climates, but are known to travel outside of these
areas.

Most Timberlimbs live in giant Cascade trees, which they seem to have a
symbiotic relationship with, Not enough study can verify this. Each Cascade
tree holds between 3-5 pod dwellings that are called Bokeems.

Timberlimbs clear small areas to grow crops that are tilled using a
draft animal called a Patuz. Timberlimbs are the only know creature to
domesticate this animal.

Appearance and culture

Timberlimbs
(in their language Feniri) are small creatures less then four feet tall. They
have frog-like faces and long swept back ears. The long arms end in three
pincer-like claws. Their feet are bird-like in appearance with three front toes
or claw and a rear toe for stability.

5.19.08 Update

I have an artist now doing some concept work. He is going to start out on Ruhks and the
Timberlimbs. Here’s a headshot of the Ruhk concept.

I also created a slideshow of scenes from one of the Five Kingdoms

Religion update

Today I completed a final, first draft of the Church of Sanctuary. Here’s a snippet:

Deity Structure
The Faces of god is a single deity with the following six aspects or “faces” : Father, Mother, Warrior, Teacher, Craftsman, and Healer. The religion is often simply called “The Church”. It includes a book of scriptures called the Holy Logos.

Adherents of the Church use hexagons and the number six to represent the deity. Edmund Roak brought the Faces of god with him when he fled Arroista. The Church has become the dominate religion in Myrcia, Lucidor and Altalissia.

Castlecliff update

This morning I finished the main Castlecliff city map. I used Fractal Mapper 8 (FM8) and Paint Shop Pro to touch it up. Next I’ll start populating the city, that’ll be fun!

Update 5.11.08

I’ve had company for the past few days, so my time has been limited working on Ebonyr. I did start a couple of new projects. I started a new city map style that will probably be the standard for the this campaign setting. (see image below). I also started working on some more music for the site. I hoping to start on my first adventure the first of June.

Update 5.3.08

Today I had to time to update the maps. I completed a new spinning globe of Ebonyr. I also created the political maps for Heldon and Borgravia.

I’m going to try to finish up all the 5 Kingdom maps these weekend.
