Update with new cameos for Yuri's Infantry and fix some ugly cameos.
You can covert their cameos to SHP or use "CameoPCX/AltCameoPCX=NAMEICON.pcx" for use cameo directly (required Ares).
We need fictional cameos! just like what Project Phantom & Mental Omega 3 do on the infantry. _________________ If you are a MetalHead (Heavy Metal Fan) and don't want to be a metalhead, Just remove your metal ball from your head. �:p .

Not a huge fan of the little emblems on the cameos. They also appear to lack a buttonize effect. Both combined make them stand out like sore thumbs among more traditional cameos.
That said, your choice of images is pretty good for the most part. A few of em I actually used in my mods way back in the day. _________________ YR modder/artist, DOOM mapper, aka evanb90

we need modders with their own ideas, not duplicating/recreating stuff from famous mods.
Ontopic: i agree with EVA, the insignia ruin the cameos.
Not the fact that they have them per se, but that they
-have no uniform position and size
-have low contrast compared to the cameo and are hard to notice (e.g. give them a thin black outline or brighter colors)
-lack details, like giving them a 3d effect, some bright spots, highlights, shadows etc _________________ SHP Artist of Twisted Insurrection: Nod buildings

Many thanks!! How you know i have request the female soldier cameo for Igla Trooper? You have the cameo without red star?
Each cameo in rar file are include: NAMEICON.pcx(w/o insignia) and NAMEUICO.pcx(veteran cameo, with insignia) or NAMEICON 0000.png(w/o insignia) and NAMEUICO 0000.png(veteran cameo, with insignia), The idea I make vet insignia like that are from actual military rank in October Revolution and Cold War. About Igla that because a girl in cameo carring Igla-1D and 9K38 Igla is most popular AA Heat Seeker Rocket Launcher in russia. However, the Igla cameo I upload doesn't naming yet, because I doubt you don't like it, so you should make it yourself.

Lack buttonize, and spy(magnificent glass), engineer(wrench), hero(skull) insignia are dumb, yes. It would be fix later!. But 3d detail and bright spots of something, I doesn't notice it had in unmodded RA2YR. QUICK_EDIT

Trump wasn't a spy but Putin was a KGB agent since 1980.
The Shinobi icon is a colored Genji from Overwatch.
And the icon for Boris does not fit with his voice, but the cameo is great to fit for unique soviet commando units. QUICK_EDIT
I don't find any of these particularly easy to read (and I don't mean the text, I mean at a glance seeing what they are) which is the one purpose of a cameo. The faction icons don't stand out, they need some bevel / texture / glow effect to have them be distinct from the background. Similarly the actual unit in the cameo often doesn't seem distinct either because they're as sharp as the background. Usually you want to have th unit be a bit sharper and more visible than whatevers going on behind them, so you can easily spot what it is at a glance or in your peripheral vision. Subtle use of lighting and glow effects etc help do it. QUICK_EDIT
Sorry, but these cameos look so weird and unfitting the game's aesthetics that the whole topic seems more like a trolling attempt rather than a serious one QUICK_EDIT

I like the concepts behind some of these far more than the actual implementation of almost all of them, for example, superimposing a Desolator on a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. background is an interesting reference. The two "Engineer" cameos also seem well-enoughly done to be useable. The Trump icon is also done well, though I suppose that there won't be a lot of applicability for it in the modding community, especially not with that label (though I guess you were labeling him as a spy as an ironic political reference).
