Uniform Insignia Forum

Ho ho ho...

Yup, it's Christmas and that means time for a little light-hearted creation I've been playing with this holiday season - well, someone has to protect the massive stock-pile of presents in Santa's workshop from theiving little Goblins...!

This is not a major service with an offensive capability (it's only an elf-defence force, after all...!) so I have deliberately limited the number of ranks - think of this like a police force with the upper echelons having strictly limited numbers in each role.

I'm open to suggestions if anyone can come up with any better ideas, but for now, at least, the ranks would be:

Enlised:
Elf
Elf, first class
Lance Korporelf
Korporelf
Staff Korporelf
Korporelf-Major

Commissioned:
Second Elftenant
Elftenant
Captain
Major
Kolonel
Vice-Kommisar
Kommisar

Officer uniforms (Gala dress, Full dress, Patrol dress)

Company Grade:

Field Grade:

Kommisars:

I'll let you all work out the details of the symbols used for the ranks and the way the additional detailing increases through the ranks. Let me know if you have any further ideas!

Happy Holidays, guys!

That's elfing hilarious! Nice job!

I like it! I love the idea, very nice.

Masterstroke! Well done!

How the Elf Defense Force be armed?

Yeah, the Elves will rule the world with these cool uniforms, shame you should add serivce caps as alternatives...

show us, show us their subdue-camouflage/ winter uniform, ßitte? ~_^ and their flying machine - equipped with 9 dependent power units (:deer). :-Ţ ciao.

Meeeeerrry Christmas to all!

Ha! I'd forgotten about these again (thanks, Miklós...!)

Seasons greetings and best wishes to you all!

Very nice! Is Lee Majors the first Komissar? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0QVJOEwXac

Great work! :D
Are there some missing rank insignia? O.o

Ha! Guest General of the week...!

I think his armoury was rather more impressive than I had in mind for a fun and child-friendly diversion but there's only so much the Elf Defence force could achieve with toy swords, snowballs and Bart Simpson catapults...!

Merry Christmas, everyone

Merry Christmas to all!

Hello All!
