Okay, I've got the vector image and I'll be going to my fabricator later today. Since my work does custom racing suits for racecar drivers, the cost should be relatively low but I'm going to have to check on quality since we normally sew onto existing fabric and not make stand alone pieces. Also, these probably won't have the heatsealing plastic on the back. I'm going to see what I can do, but in the meantime, I want to get a count of who would interested in buying these.They are $5 each. That does not include shipping costs. They'll come in a small envelope to save costs.

If you're interested then let me know!

While I prefer not to due to the possibility of things getting lost, I can ship anywhere as long as the buyer covers the costs. I should have a batch ready next week. I'll be posting an image of the actual product up later today. (^_^)d

Okay guys, here is a scan of the actual thing. They're going to cost $5 each.



It's not exactly like the original thing since I don't have a super-high quality machine like professional embroidery shops, but it's as close as I can get it. The picture doesn't do it justice IMO.

The patches themselves are 4"x4" (10cm x 10cm) and sewn onto the blue fabric then hand cut to give it the final shape. Buyer may want to the trace the edges of the patch with a lighter to finalize the shape. Other than that, what you see is what you get. I'll be getting 14 in a first batch and, if demand grows, then I can make more.

If you're interested in one, please PM me with the follow:

1) # of patches you want.
2) Ship-to Address

I will require a day or two after you send this info to get an estimation for shipping costs. In which I will reply and you can decide if you still want them or not. Then just PayPal me the amount with a note telling me who the payment is from.

Thanks for looking!

5 DOLLARS?!

That's what he's saying. Considering how most places will make you order at least 50 of them for at least $4 a pop, it's not a bad deal. (^_^);

Is it just me, or is 10cm x 10cm pretty huge? I think 6cm x 6cm would've been better. Also, not to be picky, but a few shades lighter would've been nice.

5 dollars isn't that expensive. It's a cool patch, you can't really find them anywhere else and considering time & materials, it's not bad.

To top it off, it isn't coming from Chinese sweat shop and it's being done by a Strike Witches fan. So you know it will at least be done properly.

Damn, I want one.
I and I used to have the perfect jacket for it.
A green German style war jacket.

But my damn ex-girlfriend has it. And I have her shitty leather jacket.
Wait, she preferred not to call it boyfriend and girlfriend. Because it had signs of attachment, and she didn't want boyfriends at the moment. Errr...the last girl who was rubbing my...friends with benefits..

Damn. I need a new jacket. I wonder how hard it'll be to find another one of those.:x

I've been trying to find a good picture of what it would look like over the internet.
But so far no luck.

Dammit, I'm gonna have to buy a new jacket before I buy that patch.
It just wouldn't look right on any of the jackets I currently own.

If anyone is certainly interested in purchasing the patches from Ran, say so in the thread, and I'll add your name into the original post.
Don't miss this awesome chance. ;)

Damnit! Don't die without my permission!
