Hey guys, We could use a hand with some art work / specifically some icons. This is an example of a factory we are using.  We need similar style buildings for the following: Airport / airfield Barracks Munitions Fuel City They will be reduced down to ~32x32, so not too much detail. Black & White would be best. Please fire me off a PM if you think you can help or know of a source. |

How's something like this?
Is the style ok? Needs more detail? Borders not good?

Shit I'm pretty sure you could offer the guy a cup of coffee and he'd try to kill you with the mug if you forgot sugar.
That's like offering Beer to fuck the fat chick. It will work for a while, but it's not gonna last. Not only that, but there is zero motivation for the Fat chick to loose weight.
Why don't you collect up your love beads and potpourri and find something constructive to do.

If you then put a black edge on the correct parts, then rendered it down to a sprite of the correct size, itd work. Fuel dump/Oil rig would probably be an easy one to do 3d -> 2d sprite |

We need the icons to look more like objects. Like objects you would see on a board game or something. If you look at my factory or this example it does not have borders or anything and looks like a 3 dimensional object (kinda)  |

No More detail then you see above. Even my oil refinery is too much detail. These will be shrunk down to about 32x32 pixels, so any small detail will just get lost anyway.
To give you an idea of size: I believe the unit icons in the launcher are 64x64, so these ones are very small.

I may have to resort to just placing the 'special' of a sector in the top right corner like this: And limit it to a small icon - which isnt such a problem.  |

Looks better on what?
These are not launcher Icons. These are not forum Icons.
These are icons designed to be used on the New Warmap. A design in which the Warmap is supposed to have a board game type feel to it.
So unless we are not going with that design, the icons you think look better would look retarded........
Just sayin'
