Crests - Medium
A high-impact native-shape crest with swept red blades, silver jaws, and a deep central lock.
Composition
Red Vanguard is an aggressive rank crest built around speed and forward pressure. The swept red blades make the mark feel wider than its central body, while the long lower point keeps the silhouette anchored.
The rear shadow establishes the full boundary. Two outer blades and two shorter cuts create a repeated diagonal rhythm, while the silver frame funnels attention into the charcoal chevron and center spike.
BO2 reconstruction status
This guide uses 17 documented BO2-native shapes and shows the layer order step by step for manual reference.
The online template and exported PNG are planning references. They cannot be imported into BO2 or synchronized with a game account.
Color decisions
Red carries the motion, silver separates the lower frame from the dark body, and charcoal prevents the center from becoming visually hollow. Keep the silver narrow so it reads as an edge rather than a second subject.
Focal point: The red center spike and the dark inner chevron form the focal axis.
