Hold your horses

I think the uniform looks pretty nice in person.

[Spaceman3750]

Those wings and badges look really good.

The gold bars are on backwards.

Yup. I saw that.

[Okayish Aviator]

The gold bars are on backwards.

I like to fly planes upside down, so I put them on backwards so they will be rightside up when I pass someone important.

Obviously not folded, but this is how mine came.

See, you've got a solid 3/8 of an inch or more on the left than I do.

The name tag I'd picked happened to be the *shortest* one in my batch.

I went with the longer one and cheated my name slightly outboard about 1/16th of an inch to gain a bit more.

That's because my name is so long

I only have three less than you.

Which is about the number of that Ned guy's last name.

And a cautionary tale for those ordering Insignia from third-party vendors.

These crew wings came from Williams and Williams. Their dark blue is not the same as the Vanguard dark blue

Nin, how can that be? I had a whole bunch of early bird locals say that they KNEW they got the good stuff? 



That said, they shorted me one set of Major Insignia...gonna leave one Major at the unit sad. :/

But maybe one of you fine folks got an extra Major, and were shorted a Ground Team Badge and some Pilot wings? This came in extra:

[Майор Хаткевич]

Doh

[Eclipse]

Wow - three different colors in the same order, and those !@#$ wings, whoever they belong to, are merrowed.

Whiskey Tango (fill in the blank).

The CC badge looks like the clown from Circus Circus at the top.

[Майор Хаткевич]

Color matches. Trick of angle/light.

[Eclipse]

Maybe, but you'll never unsee the clown.

[Garibaldi]

Maybe, but you'll never unsee the clown.

Got dangit....

[Майор Хаткевич]

Got dangit....

Yea...makes me dislike it more than before. Haha

[Alaric]

As a Shrine clown I take exception to that remark

[NIN]

Maybe, but you'll never unsee the clown.

Awwwww, now I'm ruined.

A CAP friend had Kel-Lac do up military badges and they came out spot on.  I'll see if he can post a pic.

Interestingly my aircrew wings were not marrowed.  They came like the ranks and ground team badge with unfinished edges.
