Hey Helma,
I'm looking for someone who'd be willing to start a project for making custom patches for the flight groups in the Strike Witches series. I already made pins and my money is still kind of burnt from that whole fiasco or else I'd take the project upon myself, but I don't have the option with classes in session and no steady job as of yet.

I've already got/ordered all of the 501st character patches and I'd be interested in at least 2 sets if anyone would be interested in going through with this considering there's no official patches being sold anymore.

Is anyone up to the task?

How long did it take for the refund?
I've made that dispute 6 days ago and haven't heard a word since then from amazon.

They refunded me in less than a day. I don't know why it would take them so long to refund you. Try to contact them again or something, and explain your situation to them and how you have not heard back from them or patch-kun.
>> No. 5222 ID: 36e6e563
I opened a dispute a few days ago myself. The emails say they'll give him ten days to respond and if he doesn't it will automatically go my way. Wish this had worked out better. Hope he hasn't gotten in to any real trouble as far as the copyright issues.

Do anyone know if it would be possible to sell them at some random anime convent, like in artists alley or some 'visitors shop' (perhaps best idea)? I assume that it would be pretty safe since Funimation or any other licence holder won't have guys running around there.

Does he have anything to do with the refunding, or is amazon responsible for it(I wonder)?
I would be very disappointed had I purchased a patch and he put me though this garbage. I am sorry to hear about everyone's struggles with this ordeal.

You can (VERY rarely) find them in conventions, or you can simply order personal custom made ones online. Some Swap-meets have patch tailors and you can give designs to them.

Custom made; what I did with Minna's emblem and the 501st. The website I found sells 100% embroidered, 3in, velcro-backed ones for around 11$ each (per design). Though, you usually have to buy it in bulk. I don't like that, but it's the closest alternative. I got 5 of each.

Minna's has yet to arrive and I ordered on the 23rd, and I just ordered the 501st patches earlier today.
>> No. 5340 ID: 6efc4129
>>5337
What website did you use and how was the quality? I have tried having the patches made by a patch maker on base before and it was a head ache trying to get it done and when I finally got it the quality was horrible.
>> No. 5341 ID: ba867596
I have not filed a complaint nor have I received a refund.

Have I missed the date for claiming a refund?

I'm pretty sure I never got a refund either.

Oh well.
>> No. 5344 ID: 85ee56f8

Neither did i, which is a real shame since i only had a bit of spare change and went for patches over mikans pins.

I wouldn't care so much if It wasn't for the fact that i'm out of work now.

Went to http://www.qualityembroideredpatches.com/

Their patches still haven't come yet, but I'll let you guys know the quality as soon as they do arrive, which appears to be around the 14th.

I'm expecting at least similiar to >>5288

This is the message paypal sent me about the upotte patch I ordered. It's too bad, I was really looking forward to having a galil patch. Hope patch kun is allright, and can give us an explanation about what happened, but I highly doubt that will ever happen.

The weird part is this:
If he wanted to get away with the money he could easily have posted somewhere, saying that he had problems or something, making people less likely to demand their money back now but wait.

He lives in the same state as me, and I have his address from the last upotte patches.
Maybe I should give him a visit

NEWS
Not news on the SW Patches, but other news!
I'm taking on Girls und Panzer patches without kickstarter but I'll need a ton of people who are interested (as in enough to raise $500.) Anyone who would be interested? It'll be a set of 4 patches: Oarai, Saunders, Pravda, and Black Forest. I don't need the money until I get the final artwork, but I will need the tally of how many people want in.

Each patch=$1.50 (sets of 4=$6+shipping=$11)

I got my own refund from Patchkun, though I know a lot of people didn't.

[Why I'm confident we won't get stopped?]
>Kickstarter
>Crowdfunding publicly and Funimation
I'll keep it on /a/ and /k/

Minna's Patches from the online website just arrived today.

The quality is 8.5/10, fairly good. Comparable to your average mil spec patch but just a little bit rougher around the edges. I had actually asked them to change it to 100% embroidery however it ended up being 75%. I'll let it slide since it wasn't charged extra with the card and the patches came out better than expected.

I had also cancelled the 501st patches earlier last week due to me running out of space. I'd rather keep a lower powerlevel anyway.

Dose any body have cleaned up images of the characters individual symbols. The ones seen in the season 2 ending. If they are around I have not been able to find them. I am looking to make some (vinyl) patches and I find it hard to believe that nobody has vectored them before.

These patches been around.
I got fully embroidered Shirley patch.
I'm planning on making a subdued version in the future.

As for the individual emblems, pic related.
>> No. 6460 ID: 62b1586c
>>6453
Thank you.

I hate to ask but would anybody happen to know what the name of the font used in Shirley's.
Or if somebody is willing to give up the original vector or even a version with a proper alpha channel. (I have found a gif with an alpha but its a shitty after-the-fact one.) Sorry for being so lazy but I have to try before I bite the bullet and revector the ones I want. Mainly I looking for the font.
>> No. 6464 ID: 6d942eae
>>6460
Here are the originals. Took one reverse image search. They're gif as well and the resolution isn't spectacular. Can't help you with the font, but you could always as the original artist.

Thank you.

Thought I would report back in with the end results. Vinyl patches istead of emborderd, they turned out really well. The JFW shirts were my friends idea to go with the SW theme of our little team, I was consernd about obviousness of them, but I can live with it. The Stargate ones are not relevant but this is the picture I have.
