| Create a new Photoshop document with the dimensions 200x200. Fill the background with black and then create a new layer. To start off, we're going to create the top half of the emblem. Make a new layer then, using the polygonal lasso tool, create a selection like in image a). Next choose the gradient tool and then create a linear gradient with blue and white. Use the polygonal lasso tool again to create the shape below the first one, shown in image b). For this one I used dark red and black for the gradient. |

| The eyebrow shape in image a) is black with a white border. To create the border, make a selection using the black shape, by pressing control and then clicking on it in the layers panel. Create a new layer below it and then go to select > modify > expand, entering 1 as the value. Merge the black layer and the white border together, and then duplicate it. Move it up, as shown in image b) |

|
| Create the shape, shown in image a), with a light grey/blue. Next we're going to create the dark sides to give the image some depth. Again, with the polygonal lasso tool, make a selection like in image b). Then, using the gradient tool, create gradient with dark grey and a slightly lighter grey. |

| Next, merge all the layers together, apart from the black background, and then duplicate the layer. Flip it horizontally and move it over to the right, as shown in the image below. |
