But I still don't see any fonts like the Fault one in that picture. Some of the other fonts, like the ones with the lines through some letters make me see exactly where you're coming from, but I'm still kinda lost here :/

I can't find any specific examples of your font being used, but you'll have to trust me when I say it's extremely dated looking. It wouldn't look out of place on a Space Invaders arcade machine
Am really enjoying the PlatinDyme boards. Even they also may not look too futuristic, I think especially with these colors used they would fit nice into Nazca Remains :)
By the way: Not each and every logo needs to look extremely futuristic. See nowadays billboards, some use advertising techniques by imitating the looks of the 50s or 60s and I am sure this would not change in the future. Of course, such billboards need to be the minority, but why not having some sort of 2-pages animated billboard... First page could be a car and text on it "You still own a car with 4 tires?" then the animation kicks in and it fades into another page where it says "Return your car to [random AG manufacturer] and get your first AG-mini-scooter for free"... Something like that. This also works for futuristic billboards of course. I think billboards in the future often tell people what they should do. Another point is that I am mostly seeing companies only here. But I believe we should also have billboards which advertise just a single product... A new burger at a futuristic fast food chain, new perfume, a new medicine to heal a cold within 5 hours, a special travel/flight offer by an airplane [hyperdrive] company etc.
Also lets take a look at the evolution of billboards: Very first versions I believe were just big boards with paper or paint on it and a lamp mounted on the board for indirect lighting. Then there came the self-illumed boards, recently we have boards with scrollbars that rotate in given interval so there are actually 2 or 3 advertises in one frame. How would the future look alike then? I think we will mostly have self-illumed [or even light-spending] fully animated boards while the animation itself will still be very simplified. Also these boards maybe don't require a frame as we know it, they could be holographic or projected to a flat surface.
So I think a good point in designing an ad is to already think about how your next billboard could be animated. If you could even work out an animation like clojo did, it would be even better:
But animations consume lots of time so maybe it is better to post a still image first and see if your board gets 'accepted' by the audience.
I think most futuristic fonts could fit into a span of generations, it just depends how you look at them. Good point on the single product idea, Kai, I'll have a look into it and hopefully get some new work cranked out. :)
I think I will create a sponsor logo for a new AG shoe... that sounds interesting, I mean, no-weight is better than lightweight, right? :D
Edit: On that topic, here it is! The NX-1000 (yes it is the reference you were thinking) by Delphos Footwear, the first Anti-Gravity shoe as the technology of compact AG generators advances.

And also, Kai, I agree that the PlatinDyme billboards would fit very well in Nazca Remains, with the gradient color scheme and especially since the only viewers who see the race watch it on television, and most of those would live in big cities where a PlatinDyme might be located.
Whew, finally got a new concept done! Here is Riis Technology, marketing their new supercomputers.

I'll add more backstory later when I have more time. ;)
Hi everyone! I've made a quick drawing of a possible Logos prototype. :)

I haven't done a top view yet, or a colour scheme, because I'd like to know what you all think and maybe change some things if it's needed. Hope you like. :3
Oh and PS. the Helios prototype looks sweet! And I LOVE those concepts you do, DDD113 :D
Ah, the attachment isn't being displayed. Try hosting it elsewhere and provide a link! ;)

Here you go. :)
Are those... glass wings? O_o Well, I guess they wouldn't be glass, but the durable equivalent of it, right? :D Cool idea, it definitely looks like LOGOS. It may have too much curvature for the sleek lines of the ship style, but I think ideas and inspiration could be taken from this. :) I mean, those transparent wings... I really never would have thought of that, I love the creativity here!
