Enano 0 #2 March 27, 2007 I think a good Idea for the patch will be the tattoo that hi has on his back, how agree??/42 and don't forget your towell Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wonderhog 0 #3 March 28, 2007 Yes, I have a design actually, now I just wonder how to handle stuff from here. I want to do embroidered, not stamped, and I want all profits to go to Bent Prop. I post the design for others to see, attached Still need to finish shadowing the font write me at JumperLaurel@msn.com CiaoLaurel Nichols _______________________________________ If it weren't for physics and law enforcement, I'd be unstoppable.-Anon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wonderhog 0 #5 March 29, 2007 I think that is a wonderful idea, so make one. I'll buy it. My design is not a finished product, merely a start to show you i'm working on it. I intend to shade the fonts, and add a maroon beret, and a border. I am looking for a good beret photo to cut for this. If you have a good photo of a beret, send it to me. If you have a better idea, please go for it. I'm doing this out of love for BOB and because I was asked to. I knew Bob Holler, you knew Chief Holler,-- those may be two different patches. I'll not profit, all proceeds over cost will go to bentProp.org. I appreciate constructive input. however, I'm not being paid to bow to requests, If y'all don't like it, tell me, and I'll just make a couple for myself, and those that like it.

skinnyshrek 0 #6 March 29, 2007 There is a pic of bob somewhere with his beret maybe that would be good. I will need about 5 patches for my jumpsuits so when you need the money let me knowhttp://www.skydivethefarm.com do you realize that when you critisize people you dont know over the internet, you become part of a growing society of twats?

Wonderhog 0 #7 April 3, 2007 I have added to design for BOB patch a red beret. posted here, but i think the green is too bright, so that will be toned down. Perhaps more tilt in the beret? Or does it look too hokey?Laurel Nichols _______________________________________ If it weren't for physics and law enforcement, I'd be unstoppable.-Anon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RkyMtnHigh 0 #9 April 3, 2007 I like the one with the red beret on the first B best...whatever the majority decide is fine with me. Thanks so much for your work on this. Bob meant a lot to many of us. _________________________________________ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LouDiamond 1 #10 April 3, 2007 Patch 3 is the best depiction of the beret and how it is supposed to be worn."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wonderhog 0 #18 April 3, 2007 It is maroon, my program just made it red, but the patch will be correct . I am not taking orders until next week, I'll post it.

Wonderhog 0 #19 April 3, 2007 Here is the final design draft, it is being digitized for embroidery , and I will get my estimate tomorrow. Like or lump it, this is it. The red beret is in fact maroon. I want to thank the 30 or so folks that critiqued and guided this design. It was a group effort for sureLaurel Nichols _______________________________________ If it weren't for physics and law enforcement, I'd be unstoppable.-Anon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wonderhog 0 #20 April 3, 2007 okay, again everybody: I know the beret is supposed to be maroon, and it will be. I left it lighter red on the graphic file so that the detail black outline could be discerned by the embroidery shop, ---never fear, I'm on top of it. Unfortunately, no one sent me photos of berets last week when i was begging for them. I drew this one from a website that had a drawing of one, so that's what we have now. File is already at the shop being digitized. I want to get this done, I don't have a month to play with this. I'll be lying in bed recovering from my surgery, and licking stamps to send these out. I'll open a PO box tomorrow or thursday, and begin to take orders. Thanks for the input.Laurel Nichols _______________________________________ If it weren't for physics and law enforcement, I'd be unstoppable.-Anon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wonderhog 0 #21 April 5, 2007 First, if you have email addresses for anyone you know that may be interested, please pass this on: The patch is ordered, though the background will be one solid shade of sky blue instead of the green, see attached, but picture it with one shade, I couldn't get the shade to duplicate for this file. all the stuff on it: lettering, beret, eclipse, border and stars will be embroidered. They will be ready to mail out next week. The cost is $10 each, with roughly half of the proceeds to be forwarded to Bob's favorite cause at www.Bentprop.org in check form on his birthday, the first week of June. I'll find out the exact date. I think we should celebrate the date of life of our friend, and not remember him by the date of his unfortunate death. The rest will go to cost of production and postage. I'm not profitting from this except in my heart. I will accept personal checks or postal money orders only. Or cash if you catch me at the DZ somewhere. Checks must clear first! Please send a self-addressed envelope or sticky label with your mailing address on it for expedience. It would sure help me get these out faster. Mail to: B.O.B. Patch c/o Laurel Moreira P.O. Box 3056 Statesboro, GA 30459 Let's get these out and put them on our jumpsuits, our gear bags, anywhere--- to pay tribute to our friend, our mentor, our Chief. And to remind us that senseless acts often come at a great cost. Bluest of Skies to all Friends of B.O.B.
