Hey guys just saw this thread and thought i might gonna contribute some art for the icons if i can motivate myself enough.
Icon Ideas:
I would use the Orbs from the cards (the one in the bottom right corner of the units picture) for the base of the icon with a transparent BG. Those Orbs only exist in the colors of Fire, Frost, Nature and Shadow meaning that the Orbs for Twilight, Bandits, Stonekin and Lost Souls have to be made first (can be done pretty easy using the existing ones and doing some layering work). In those Orbs i would then put a symbol that matches the faction.
Fire: Flames
Frost: Snowflake
Nature: Leaf
Shadow: Every alchemy or occult symbol ever or that satanic star that @BurningWorld posted on the first page (or a similair one)
Twilight: Corrupted or mutated plant/flower
Stonekin: Stoneshell or Waterdrop (with square at the bottom instead of circle)
Lost Souls: Skull with mist/flames behind it
Bandits: Harpoon, club, hook
Icon Colors:
All symbols should be having the colors of their faction. Probably the best if you pick colorcodes used for the cards. (I would not pick colorways based on how the factions units look in game)
Fire = Red
Frost = Blue
Nature = Green
Shadow = Purple
Twilight = Red / Green
Stonekin = Blue / Green
Bandits = Red / Purple
Lost Souls = Blue / Purple
@Kaliber84 Can you (or someone else if they know) tell me the maximum size the icons can have in px (pixel)?
I would also consider keeping the icons minimalistic and in the same style as it looks more "professional" instead of taking random icons created by 6 different people.
As i mentioned in the beginning i can do or at least try making these and post the results in here if you want.
