Bat-symbol with Eyes

Using lessons learned from adding halos, this set is actually the 2nd attempt. The eyes are initially done by adding to squares, converting them to paths, and then combining them into one path.

That path was then cloned for every single batlogo that needed eyes. Further, the eyes path has to sit on top of a batlogo path, before the two of them are combined.

As a last step, all eye paths must also be converted to curves instead of lines.

There were two special cases which were able to be handled by adding the eye shapes. The first one is the 75th anniversary logo, which now has a complete "5" in it. The second is two initial gaps in the BvS logo, to start carving out the 'S' shape

Halos 2: Experimental Halo (The "Combine" Trick)

This is an experiement with the Bat + Halo for a subset of the Batsymbols. By adding one more object into the situation (the Halo), the complexity of the entire picture has increased dramatically (maybe four-fold, if I got the maths right).

Here we have all the non-intersecting round/oval halos. That is to say, these halos are entirely disjointed from their associated Bats. (Unlike 2004's New Adventures of B&R, 2009's Batman RIP and 2010's Flashpoint, where part of the halo is obscured by the main logo).

This technique uses Inkscape's "combine" feature to turn the Bat and the Halo into a single path. This way, the logos can simply be plugged into the existing code and work.

Halos 1: Redone silhouettes

This is the limited set of 28 symbols which have an outline or halo component.

For those that have an outline, the silhouettes have been adjusted to be only the black part of the Batsymbol. The resulting shapes are interesting to see so I thought I'd share here

78 Years of Batman Logos

The logo set is well expanded from 75 Years of Batman. Additionally, the lower wings have all been redesigned: the nodes in the two-wing-point layouts are no longer equally divided. Instead, the sections next to the tail have 5 nodes, including the 2 surrounding cusps. The sections next to the outer wings have 9 nodes. This allows for more object-constancy when transitioning between 2-wing-points and 3-wing-points (eg. the 1989 sigil and title).

This time, a tsv file contains data about each logo, such as its year of use, the title of the piece in which it was used, as well as a comment (such as artist or actor). Thanks to Doni for prodding.
