As promised, Sony Online Entertainment just kicked off its Art Theme Week in PlanetSide 2 with a new Comm-Link article by Senior Art Director Tramell “T.Ray” Isaac. He explains how the team created "visual opposition" between the Terran Republic, New Conglomerate and Vanu Sovereignty factionsby focusing on colors and shapes.

• Terran Republic: Their shape is the circle, and their color is red. Their design is refined and sophisticated.
• New Conglomerate: Their shape is the square, and their color is blue. Their design is worn, but maintained.
• Vanu Sovereignty: Their shape is the triangle, and their color is purple. Their design is technologically advanced.

You can view images of some faction ships after the jump. Don't forget to tune into Stickam on Sept. 29 at 4 p.m. PDT and the @PlanetSide2 Twitter on Sept. 30 at 4 p.m. PDT for more art details!
