Graphic Design Work 002 - Military Badges

This time I tackle designs for the Navy, Air Force, and Army. I was always interested by nose art and military badges as a kid.
The first image features a dolphin jumping in front of a stylized "Spade" symbol. These badges would be seen on a Navy PCF (Patrol Craft Fast) autonomous drone (it was done for an upcoming painting soon to be posted here).
The second image is titled "Desmodus Griffinicus" as in genus "Desmodus", species "Griffinicus" and intended to be painted on Air Force bombers. My "Griffinicus" designation is an homage to the artist "Rick Griffin." One of Griffin's artistic trademarks is the winged eyeball. My design features a vampire bat mascot (with ailerons and flaps) on the lookout for potential targets.
The last image is a "Grim Reaper" badge similar to the Air Cavalry badges seen on Vietnam-era Hueys.
