Need to make a custom Symbol.

[Tyrannotaur]

I, like Pheno, have made my own unit.

I call it the Anubis Unit , based on the Jackal god of death. it is a Helic unit of Canine based zoids, which operate as a special forces kind of thing. they are an elite tactical force. I have made 4 units so far and plan to do at least one for each canine type released.

Thus far I have 2 C-wolves and a Shadow fox, plus my fav, the Konig wolf.

Here is where you come in. I want to make an insignia for each of them, so you can tell that they are in the unit. I was thinking of a Ahnk and a fancy A.

Only problem is I am not to sure what the safest way to apply the insignia is. I am probably going to use a silver paint marker to apply the insignia..but I need some advice first. Also if anyone can design a good insignia that would be appreciated.

Have you considered printing it out? I know a lot of model train fans that use that inkjet waterslide decal paper to print out their own custom decals for trains.

The paper is kinda pricy, but the results I've seen are pretty good. As long as you follow the instructions and use the right paper for your application and printer.

This would be a good way to keep all of the logos on each custom identical. I'm actually thinking about trying it myself eventually.

Well the only problem is I'd need it to be silver. and it is mostly Black.

[Tyrannotaur]
