ST: Foundations WIPs

For those of you who don't know, Foundations is an ENT reboot.

Anyway, my current WIPs:

Pilot's Wings
  • V1
  • V2
I like the how the wings and the star turned out in the second version better, but I was wondering what people thought about the size of the star in relation to the wings, because in the first version the star is a bit bigger in relation to the wings.

Rank Epaulets
  • V1
  • V2
The main difference here is in what I do with the flag ranks color-wise. An unpictured 3rd option is simply to make them all silver, and make the Commodore's rank consist of a double-wide bar without any space in between them (so it's look like one thick one). Oh, and in V1, the grey color is the color of the uniform shirt.

I like the designs very much. However, I would change the Liutenant's Rank style - maybe don't delete the little rectangle from Junior Liutenant and add the stripe after it. That way it will be easier to distinguish a Liutenant from Ensign And don't worry about your skills - just keep on working and you will be a pro in no time

I made the ranks the way I did to base them on the TOS ranks. The only thing there was that I had to come up with something for Ensign, so I just made it a half-stripe.

I like version one of the ranks.

I like the Starfleet star for the pilot's wings but the wings themselves lean way too heavily on the US Space Command wings. The idea of going super-streamlined with them is great but I'd go for more of a departure from that very identifiable Space Command look.

Looks like you've got a great start on this though. I look forward to more.

Ok, here's the final officer's ranks:



I'm probably going to leave the wings they way they are though. It was actually my intent to show a connection to the USAF Space Command, because I'm convinced that an organization like Starfleet, or UESPA in this case, would come from the Air Force as much as it would come from NASA. I was actually tempted to base the ranking system off of the Air Force for that reason, but saying "Colonel Archer" just didn't seem right to me.

Anyway, here's a slightly updated version of the wings, with a larger star.
