Planned mods (subject to change due to current lack of a job):

are you butchering your red badges to do this? or have you bought another set?


what do you think.

i got them cheap enough so i am indeed using my red ones. nowhere near finished either.

Hmmmm might be because they havent fully dried but

Very ****ty looking :)

nowhere near dry they need at least another 24 hours.

obviously wear you can see all the lines on the front is because of the masking.

why... what is the point

felt like it and thought may as well give it a go.

WTF have you done to them badges, cant wait to see the end result... Paint codes for people who maybe interested..... NOBODY is going to do what your doing Carl... lmfao


fair enough. i understand its a very marmite thing to do. but if im not happy with them when i finish they are going in the bin and ill debadge.
 
Look at it this way Carl, if they turn out crap at least you have got a new mini-frizbee out of it.
 
1. those are crap pics, cant see any purple.
2. i will reserve judgement till i see the finished article.


1.they are crap pics just quickies with my 2mp cam. and havent donethe purple yet.

2. thanks thats all i ask.


Then if it IS a FAIL, can we laugh at you? :devil:

if you really want.

If you want to make this an argument Carl i'm happy to go all the way with you. I think you should take into account that i dont give you nearly as much abuse as other forum members before giving me comments like that. Grow up.

wow calm down i was only joking. am i not predictable enough yet for you to guess that i was "butchering" my red badges. and no you dont give me any abuse as far as im aware and have been very helpful as has Andy Monty regarding cleaning amongst others.

you dirty b@stard

why o why didnt you do this on the blue badges carl:doh:


the red ones are easier to do it with. i looked into the blue ones but they are more of a dome shape so would be a pain in the jacksy to do.

plus i got the red ones cheap thanks to chris. so may as well give it a go.

my intentions always were custom coloured badges or debadged anyhow.
 
got my lacquer:D

1 liter (2x500ml tins) of carplan lacquer for £4.99 cor argue with that. need the blck to cure properly and get my purple on sat probably.

sticking with doing the one badge for the moment. only need to bin the one then.
