The ‘High Rollers’ of HSC-85 were transitioning into more of a Special Operations support role. Their name was changing from ‘High Rollers’ and they wanted an update to their emblem (which was oriented toward gambling). At the time, they were thinking of the name ‘Phoenix’ to reflect the squadron’s heritage doing firefighting support work. I was invited to submit some ideas for an emblem.
Ultimately my designs were not chosen, but if you know anyone with HSC-85 or any squadron having a phoenix or firehawk-themed unit mascot who could like the looks of this art, please let me know.
