Badge help needed?

[Carnage]

Hello there,

I was wondering if anyone could help me, I need some assistance in having a badge (well two) made for an upcoming project to be used in a short.

The badge is of a design and shape similar to the traditional British Police badge.

Any help would be great

Blad has made some great Brunswick star badges from Life on Mars and the AMCW badge. PM to see if he's got the time for a custom build or maybe you could modify an existing badge.

You may want to check out Mag etching techniques. You would need a file to send them and they could etch the magnesium for you. You would then cut it out, clean it up, shape as necessary and then nickel or brass plate it.

Check out ebay for helmet plates, like this (brass, centre empty but has laurel leaves):

British badges Blue Cloth Helmet plate Queens Crown on eBay (end time 19-Aug-10 15:00:47 BST)

or Police helmet badges like this (no laurel leaves, centre not blank but silver:

SUSSEX CONSTABULARY POLICE METAL HELMET PLATE- OBSOLETE on eBay (end time 30-Jul-10 17:50:56 BST)

Ahh now those would be ideal, but sadly they are far too large for what I need, I would require something the size of a normal capbadge. But that first one was ideal if only a tad smaller...

Thanks, I am currently Googling that as we speak.

Sadly at the moment all I have is a laminated piece of paper
