Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain Guide: How to acquire all Codename Emblems

One of the cooler features about your very own Mother Base, besides picking its color scheme, is that you can effectively design your own emblem. Why is that cool? Well, if you choose to play online, and have one of your FOBs invaded, the invader will see your logo plastered all over your base, containers and even your flag. Not to mention, the logo is also displayed on one of Snake's shoulders.

The logo creator, while simple, has a lot of versatility to it. I mean just check out this thread which has a lot of creative examples.

Some of the animal emblems can only be obtained by carrying out missions in a certain way. I'll outline each emblem, as well as the condition in which it gets unlocked so you can customize your emblem even further.
