This Thread is for the artist who are working on art for the council. I am putting this together so that it is easier to share concepts and get feedback on them. Please leave thoughts and concerns. Check back often I am hoping this becomes a very active thread.
349455 Thats what I was going for. I know the first one put why too much emphasis on Twilight, which I didn't really mean to do. I still feel like I can't do the cutie marks right though. But I think I did good considering that all I had for reference was memory and my last sketch.
349779 I'll just need some basic starter points to write something. I guess after we finish creating the guidelines of this society (like origins, political system, society under the MH) then I can start writing things like warfare or internal affairs.
349785 Those will be interesting to read. I can't wait to get this group off the ground. My personal hope is that this grows bigger then the Lunaverse. I know that probably won't happen, but still that would be awesome to see and be a part of. Also happy one year anniversity FIMfiction.
349802 Like why they banded together, why was there a civil war, why there were two empires in the first place, military organization, economic system, political system, society, religion, culture, infrastructure, and that's just the stuff I can think of off the top of my head.
349809 Not much really, I imagine the economic system would still be a free market, and the Military organization would operate much like any military would. Military's can't really work more then one way.
349819 Well, I'm not much of a military guy, but I'm really familiar with the Imperial Guard in DoW. The military could work like that. And by free market, do you mean some kind of capitalism?
349831 Most likely, as the Magistrates don't really seem the type to set up any other kind of market. Plus that seems to be the primary trade system anyway. But I am not entirely sure.
349841 Well, make it a regulated form of capitalism. History shows repeatedly that unlimited capitalism eventually leads to downfall, due to constant extortion and disregard for caution and only caring about making as much money as possible.
349848 Yeah, I think the Magistrates would be smart enough to realize the need for regulation. And if you live in the U.S.A you can see the effects of capitalism when it is not regulated well enough.
349871 Feel free to start a new thread so we can continue this, and I was thinking that the entire time once we got off the art. What should I do with the errant comments?
349873 Leave them I guess. I'll use this comment to bring the topic back on track. *ahem* Hear ye, hear ye. All ye artists discuss art passing this comment, for this is the 'Artists' thread. Thank you.

Well, the first thing I hope to get feedback on is my revamped seal for the Magistrates. I hope you guys like it. Second seal concept
349454 I like it. Seems a lot more... Balanced.

349460 Not bad. Not bad at all. Now we just need some kind of background set for the circle along with an emblem.
349753 You know, for some reason I have been waiting for your opinion more then AimBot's.
349759 Lol, aw shucks, you flatterer you.
349762 Yep, that's me Mr. Flatterer. Also I hope to see some of your own work here soon.
349767 If you mean literary, then heck yes. I'll be sure to write stories for this universe. If you mean drawing, that will be less so.
349770 I meant art in any form. Stories are one form of art, which I enjoy immensely. Another is drawing, which I recently found I may have talent in.
349779 I'll just need some basic starter points to write something. I guess after we finish creating the guidelines of this society (like origins, political system, society under the MH) then I can start writing things like warfare or internal affairs.

349795 Happy one year to you too.
Out of curiosity, how much have you figured out for this universe?
349797 What do you mean?
349802 Like why they banded together, why was there a civil war, why there were two empires in the first place, military organization, economic system, political system, society, religion, culture, infrastructure, and that's just the stuff I can think of off the top of my head.

349852 Damn right I can. Things are still going downhill for the US. I'm lucky enough to stay within the middle class and not sink into poverty.
349855 I am lucky to have my grandparents, otherwise I don't know where I would be.
Dang you guys posted a lot. Just and FYI, Aimbot has the lore if you need any of it.
349858 Hmm, a thread for artists to discuss art. And here we are. I think we're starting to get a little off topic eh?
349871 Feel free to start a new thread so we can continue this, and I was thinking that the entire time once we got off the art. What should I do with the errant comments?
349873 Leave them I guess. I'll use this comment to bring the topic back on track.

Hear ye, hear ye. All ye artists discuss art passing this comment, for this is the 'Artists' thread. Thank you.
