Hammer and plow as a vector drawing
« on: 08 April 2013, 09:29:12 AM »
Hey there,

I am looking for either a vector based drawing or a clear line drawing of the Hammer and Plow symbol used at the early stages of the RCW... Is any one of you aware of such a file? My google-fu has regrettably let me know...

Cheers,

Dimi

Oh cool... That's a good start. Maybe I could vectorise that. Thanks, former user.

But wait until @cuprum and @MarkPlant show up, I am sure they will have a bucketload to offer ;)

btw, I am not really sure it was used on flags and not on badges only.....

I've spotted these on google, but sadly they would be a paint to convert into line drawings.

As far as I can remember, some frags only carried it, but then again, it's not that important anyway... As long as it looks good. I on the other hand would like to have it on dice. :D

why do they have to be line drawings?
You need them for dice only?

Currently that is what I am thinking off, yes. And as far as I know, the custom dice makers need vector based files. A line drawing then improves scalability. The simpler, the better. The drawing has to be recognisable on the little dice-side.

I see
well the hammer and plough symbol I always found a bit difficult to recognize anyway in outline, though historically correct...

Yeah, that's why I haven't been satisfied by my google finds so far... and hence this thread :)

Oooooo...sounds good! A project I'd also be interested in.

Actually, I think I already have this done somewhere... for some alternate RCW patch sets!  I'll look on my hard drive.

A line trace on CAD would do the trick if you know someone with access to it.
