Nice custom - is it a painted on armband or erm ...an armband?

Hi,
Thanks Mark ...it's an arm band, I could never paint one that good , it's just a photocopy from a Actionman guide book thats been cut out & stuck in place.I been thinking of doing this for some time now, the whole thing only took around 10 min's in my lunch break.

Looks good i might have to copy that idea!

Go for it Mark..it's way easier than trying to paint lettering that small! I'm also thinking of doing a M.P. as well, using the same idea..maybe using 's head?

Very snazzy!, it reminds me of the time when I did it for real.

Thanks, that means a lot to me..I've never served in the forces myself but I've got the upmost respect for anyone who has.

No problem, what I would suggest though, is that the Beret badge should be white, but as I said, I like it, 2 thumbs up

Cheers Bill I "borrowed" a pot (aswell as the works copier ) from the shops Art dept' this lunch time, not sure of the make but the range is called Anita's Acrylics,the colour's their mid blue & it worked really well I thought I layered it it too thickly as it was a really uneven & had a "bobbly" surface..but whithin about 5 min's it had dried to a perfect flat finish

The pot is now safely sitting back on the shelf (minus a small brushfull or two )& ready for sale..
