Got to do another new design. the 2nd one where I was able usually to use vinyl letters, I usually make them out of glass so that the actual color of the lettering is correct instead of some generic dark color, but these were supposed to be black. This one is the Distinctive Unit Insignia of the 77th Armor Regiment.

Got to do another new design, for a friend of a friend of my brother. I usually make the letters out of glass, so the actual color of the lettering is correct instead of some generic dark color, but these were supposed to be black. As it says, it's the logo for the 56th Special Operations Wing, and that's all I know about it.

These are the latest new pieces I've made. While I do mostly military themes pieces I do other things as well. The one (with the cannons) is the logo for the LRPFCFT (Long Range Precision Fired Cross Functional Team) of the AFC (Army Futures Command) at Fort Sill. The flies are a "Bloody Butcher" and a "Green Drake" and the last is a setting of a vintage kiln fired elk image. For my friends who live in Oregon, I'll have a booth at the Scandinavian Festival in Junction City (Aug. 10 - 13). If you have time, drop by the and say Hi.

Finally got to do a new design. This is the shoulder patch of the 18th Field Artillery Brigade, XVIII Airborne Corps Division - The "Steel Brigade", (Tough, Proud, Disciplined).
