These are some sketched ideas of emblems/insignias for different elements/governments/organizations on Archsphere. Nothing spectacular most are just rough drafts. I'm still figuring out for most, but opinions always help.
- The insignia for SOUL GATE is the 3 connected circles. Each circle represents the different disciplines of transmutation: Alchemy, Lycanthropy (more accurately Therianthropy), and Ruahllurgy. Every member of Soul Gate wears a necklace with the emblem of their respective discipline while wearing the offical insignia of Soul Gate on their uniform. Note: Not every practitioner of transmutation has any affiliation with the organization. If anything the organization can make transmutation look bad to the public eye. And only 3 nations are fully tolerate of transmutation - two of them have actual schools in teaching it.
- For WATER I was thinking of something to represent it in it's three phase. The elliptic pic I kinda had it so top and bottom represent the poles as well...if not...I can always use the doodle of whale - swimming with the flow. Many whales and other cetaceans are Alcrons (water elementals). Because of their sheer size, many of them are powerful water elementals. The migration patterns of some whales are responsible for help maintain the sky-rivers.
- For FIRE I wanted to put emphasis on either volcanic structures or the dragons...better known on Archsphere as Rhamphors. Almost all Rhamphors that are elementals are Brolens (fire elementals) in which some are the most powerful. I like my two different doodles of the Rhamphors since for both of them I put them in a pose to make them shaped like fire, heheh. Then there's that one with the Rhamphor emerging from the volcano, which kind of makes me think of a logo for some urban blue-jeans Hmm...maybe that's what I'll use that for....
- For AIR I was trying to put emphasis on a design revolving around the winds made by the pattern of the planet's Coriolis effect, which would include the Eastern Tropical trade winds, the westeries, and then the polar easteries. In one pic I got the swirls in the center representing tropical storms...then in the temperate zone a more morderate/varied feel, and then at the poles the sharp frigid winds. On the second on I have an eagle shaped around the global wind directions. Then I have another line-silhoullete of an eagle...more percisely a "roc." There are no known elemental rocs, but these giant eagles are associated with air because of their fierce and powerful reputation in the skies; it's said they can easily fly through storm winds.
- Next with LIGHTNING Oh bajeezes as much as I love this element, this gave me the hardest. I really want to steer away from the cliche lightning bolt shape. I was trying to think of something dealing more with the magnetism. But..I ain't so sure. But I know the nation's current emblem will revolve around something digital/high-tech.
- With EARTH I was trying to make a symbol with different geological features revolving around the elephant. Elephants have a modest percentage of elemental races among their species in which most of them are Golrons (earth elementals).
- With SPIRIT I was either thinking of the theme of birth-life-death or just the biological history/timeline of evolution.
- Bats are usually associated with the DARKNESS elemental (though there are no elemental bats). Also I was figuring of a dark sphere in the center of smaller ones. (Originally I had four...but then I realized that Darkness should be the big on in the center)
- With LIGHT I went as far as personifing the sun as a nurturing mother. That or have three spheres. The center medium being Archsphere, the larger on the sun and the smaller one as the moon.
Okay I completly skipped over the artist comments for now but have one question-
WHY THE HELL DON'T YOU PUT UP MY DRAWINGS? D:
Atmos these are FREAKIN AWESOME. I really LOVE The Earth elephants those are so freakin awesome, the dragon too...*whacks you*

I don't draw too much and when I too it takes me a long time and I never have the patience of the average artist, I don't think. But I'll probably end up sketching more Archsphere stuff in the future
You do a wonderful job though ^^
Please do some more!

I love them all of course I love the water elemental symbolly goodness
The eagle is really cool, it'd make for a sweet tattoo, well not like something that marks that individual's body, you know, somewhere where no one would really see it i.e. shoulder, right below the neck in the center of the shoulder blades, something like that.
Yeah you know I didn't think of it that way (of them being tattoos, lol). But yeah I really liking the 'lined silhouettes' I think I might go more that route.
I think I might alter the bat pose for the darkness...I'm really want to use the dragon-silhouette because I'm actually proud I managed to get it's outline shaped like a flame....um for the water do you like the ellipitical emblem or the whale better?
I might probably end up needing at least to symbols for each element - one representing the elemental capital and the other as the element's religious icon.
Lined silhouettes are better!!! The dragon looks great , as for the water element, I like the whale a lot, its so simple and yet unique. I'm also a huge ocean animal lover, dolphins are my favorite, bottled nose ones
Thats a really good idea for the religious icons, you definitely should go with that and see where it takes you

Yeah I might end up using the eagle somehow but maybe with the coriolis spheres I'll make them more elliptical or something...hmm.
