Finally done!

Symbol for a post-Skyrim fanfiction I'm writing. It's what I'll use as the cover logo for the folder, etc.

I'll be honest, the hardest part of this was finding a free-to-download Dovah font. Which, btw, I got here [link] I did have to sign up, but it took less than 5 minutes and the font works really well, though you need to type completely in caps for it to work. So if you download it, keep that in mind.

The only design here that's my own is the antlers. Even so, since I had to draw it all by hand and have added my own effects to it, please don't use without my permission. The symbol isn't mine but this rendition of it is. It might look like a weird logo but it'll make sense one I've submitted some story.

I'm actually really proud of how this came out, considering it was done in the ever finicky Gimp, using a laptop touch-pad thingy. Awkward.

Basic version of this: [link]

Nightingale symbol, Thieves Guild symbol, Dovah language, Dovah font (c) Bethesda

No comments?! D:<
That is so cool! I love the glwo, the white-on black and the 'safety' symbol under the sign of Nocturnal. It's like Safety in the Shadows. <3 The Thieves Guild Symbol also means 'safety' so it's put on places 'Safe as the Flagon'. ANYWAY, the antlers make a beautiful fiery design/thin antlers curling up around it. The words at the bottom translated into Dragon? Genius! 'KRQIQQR' Right?

That's really weird :o
I downloaded a Dovah font, and the letters are supposed to be KRASAAR, but when I typed in KRQIQQR it came out almost exactly the same. I had to look closely but there's only a tiny difference between the letters. S and I look the same except the dashes on I are higher, and Q and A look the same except the dashes on Q are bigger... I checked here [link] and the font just makes them look the same :p
PS: Thank you for the really nice comments! :hug:

Yeah I re-checked after I commented and found that out! Kind of like 'Q' and 'O' or '5' and '3' in our alphabet and numbers. x3 I didn't even see 'A' or 'S' while looking, totally skipped over it. KRASAAR is a cool name, though! :D
