Honestly, I'm not a fan of the green. If that were made a white light, it would be perfect imo.

I think you went a little heavy on the emboss for the strength symbol. Maybe just a harder edge.

I'll agree the green looks a little odd on the red. I think it looks nice on the blue though. Perhaps white or silver would look just as good on both?

They look great otherwise.

The symbol cannot get crisper as the whole thing is very small inside the textures. We're talking pixels here. This is pretty much as good I can make it look without actually creating the emblem on the actual model or moving/adding/reshaping UV's. And it's too late for that now.

I went for green as this were pipes with green liquid inside them. I had in mind that this is an important part to make the portals work. I didn't want to go with white as that would only be lightbars or just regular light, which is boring. On both of the portals it would also lack variation in color as well. I wanted an extra color for something on the portals and this seemed the best way to do it. Not many colors also fit very well between blue and red which can give a firm picture that it's a separate object and not just a variation between red and blue.

At least try it with white/silver instead of green.

No, I don't think it's possible.

But I still think the current effect is really good.
