If anyone is interested in experimenting I could publish a white version as well, with separate lettering to be used as a stencil, applique, or something.

BEAUTIFUL!
(And: I'm familiar with the projects / time issue, too..!)

This is awesome. I have some brass somewhere, I'm tempted to make some real ones. The Brass I have s kind of thick but it would make a great template for a layered up metal one.!

That would be fantastic. I've often thought about making one out of wood (I don't really have the tools for that kind of metal working) and using some of the great spray paints you can find these days. Many even spray on with a texture. It's the lettering that gives me pause for thought. I suppose I could do up a stencil or something. Hmmmmm.

Oh well, I'll stick with the paper one for now.

Steve

Hey gang. The final version of the BSG 75 emblem is now available on my web site. I've updated the gold color as posted above and published a new PDF. The link to the beta version above is now broken (I can't edit it now).

Regards,

Steve

Guess I was a little brain-dead myself as I forgot to actually test the link and it was broken. It's fixed now.

Sorry about that, and thanks for pointing it out.

Steve

PS - glad you like the site. I'm rather proud of it.
