I liked your idea and tried it. But that shield logo kinda hides the beauty of cover image so I removed that.

True. Perhaps the shield logo on a light circle over the dark woods on the left? The woods and surrounding grass are pretty solid, so not as much interest to cover up.

I also think the text outline could look better, but I just can't tell how now...
agreed.

maybe more of a burgundy for the red and a beige for the white outline & maybe a slight shadow under the text?
...i was also thinking you could add the shield on the left, but maybe make it transparent?

just some thoughts. :lol:

looks fun to play with! :mrgreen:

i might play with it just to show you what i mean?

If the shield is transparent, why put it?

In the BWM map our hero appears to be hiding behind one of the pillars. He appears in the other three.

A red font might still work on that, especially one with an outline in another color.
