General Badges - DIY Panda 4x4

[Bob Gill]

Used my vinyl cutter and doming fluid to produce these. Makes the 4x4 on the plastic door panels standout more than the grey on grey.

Cheers

You could probably sell those !

Awesome - fancy making some just like that for commercial gain??! Very neat work indeed...

 

[Bob Gill]

Just done few different metallic colours - as well as the green, there is red and silver. When they have cured I'll post a picture. Needs a bit of tuning but things are looking good.
Will keep you all updated.
Cheers

I would be interested in something to contrast with my green - maybe scarlet red or even zombie green !

 

[Bob Gill]

Theoretically you could do them in any colour - as long as it is available in vinyl. I've got some glow in the dark, reflective, fluoro and other stuff that could be used.
The process is quite time consuming, but results in a nice gel coated label.

Yellow! Yellow! Yellow!

Had another play with a few sparkly metallics. All will brighten the relatively drab plastic panel as inserts. Now - what colour will go best?

would you fancy sharing the artwork file for those? I've wanted to get a vinyl cut to go on the back of the car...

Hi Bob
Love your badges, I did the very same thing on my 4x4 Antarctica when it was new. I went to my local sign shop and they produced some vinyl stickers in the orange. They really did look nice once applied. They charged me £12.00 for the pair. A word of warning though if you haven't yet fitted them. The 4x4 mouldings on the plastic panel are tapered inwards so any dimensions should be taken from the deepest point otherwise they will not fit in.
Happy Badge making
Regards Jo

Red for me - green would get a bit "lost" amongst the main colour of the car.

Red would be a nice contrast !!

I would be interested in some if the price is cool. Great idea.
