Wow! I might be interested if you do this. Yup, you're the Queen of cloth!



Awesome! Hehe, thanks! :)



Goomerspartan10 said:
wow cortana thats awsome! do you think you will do more than just ranks? ( like a masterchief helmet, or an energy sword for example)



Oh definitely! What I will probably do is ask for a picture and Sgt. Reynolds (Mike, aka the boyfriend) will vector it in Adobe Fireworks.

Wow, that's awesome!It's too bad I'd have no use for a badge, but it seems like a cool idea! This could actually be pretty popular.

I guess that was money well spent! ;)



I hope so; $5,500 is a pretty hefty sum! especially for someone like me. ^^;

Okies. When I get around to actually taking orders, I'll post it in the Classifieds section, and then I'll just link to it from here. :)

I REALLY Want a patch or two. So when you start making these, I am SO buying one.



Ok, great! Thanks for the interest!



Loess said:
This... is.. awesome! When you start up, I'm going to need a few patches.



Hey Loess, glad to see your interest! :D

Haha, the eagle is actually way over-detailed. Just the shape would be all.

I would probably vector out the general shape, then vector out the shadows in the wings, beak, etc. Basically shoot for a cell shaded kind of look.

I would definitely be interested in a 405th patch (if you can get Adam's permission) and a UNSC Patch. Any figure on how much the Spirit of Fire patch would be to make? It looks real nice! Also, I saw you could make these iron on or sew on, but would you be able to do a velcro backing? If not, no biggie, I could sew that on myself.

Yes! That's exactly what I am trying to do. I want to bring the Halo ranks into the real military look and feel with these patches, so those pictures are what I am trying to accomplish. :)

I don't think I'll be able to make 405th patches to sell, but we will see. I'll probably make one and show it to Adam and see what he thinks. The Spirit of Fire patch would probably be in the $45 range, only because of the intricate design and the different colors. It would be roughly the same size as the rubber coaster thing that came with the Halo Wars collector edition of the game. :)

Gotcha. Any yay/nay on the velcro? Everything looks great so far, though! Another patch I'd love to see is the Pillar of Autumn:

And I'm sorry for all the questions, but I've got one more. Is there any way these patches could be subdued, just black and dark green/gray, as shown below?



This

compared to this

That would add another level of military realism!

No, I mean subdue the Halo patches the same way the military subdues patches today. The flag was just an example of what a subdued patch looks like. Sorry for any misunderstanding.

Yeah we can do that. Once they're vectored, changing out colors just takes a few clicks. Only thing is she might need additional cash to cover the costs of the other colors, depending...don't talk to me about that though. My expertise ends at the keyboard. :lol
 
heh thats ok renolds. when i do order my batch it will be of whatever she is printing and what kind of designs... also ill be getting 2 of each logo in different types. so ill pay for a spool of thread if need be.

Oh yes, I'm sorry. Yes, velcro can be an option! It might cost a bit more, but that will only be for the supplies.



Definitely doable. I do like the more subdued colors as well.

Oh noes!



Anything Halo related is possible for patches at this point, it's mainly just how much you are willing to pay for any given design. :lol



OMG, THANK YOU for that link!

Ok, just wanted to update an apologize for letting this thread/idea die. I've been really busy lately with all my commissions, cosplays, etc trying to catch up on everything before July hits. I'm going to try my best to get these up and running by mid-July. I would really like people to have these in time for DragonCon. :D



Sara said:
This one's great, I Love the design!

$25-$35 seems pretty reasonable too.



Thanks!

Cortana I'm not sure what program your using but the program I use for my little setup is Embrid, once you learn to use it, it has some features that help save time with designing the patch pattern. If you have any question I'd be happy to help.
 
I made a small emblem generator (html file) for the odst emblems. Would you like it? I could make one for H3 too, if you'd like that is.
