I can do custom name tags for anybody that is interested. The tag looks like its a grey felt with a satin stitch. I'll work up the Cooper one today and get a price for customs if anyone is interested.
the text is a little different from your rendering, but I think the font is helvetica looking at the few pictures I've seen so far.
I also make endurance patches, but since they are by order only they cost a few dollars more than a big run. I'll link a sale page if people are okay with the idea.

That would be awesome! But from what I've seen I think the names should be a little bolder. May I ask what are the dimensions of the patches?
More back pix from the bonus feature.

I went with 3" x 1" but looking at the Brand suit from the first page and if my large chest control PDF printed at the right size (4.75" x 3.5") it should be more like 4".
Captain may be able to verify the chest piece size and I will size from there.
I agree on the width of the lettering and for some reason the picture I uploaded had the wrong font in it anyway, I did some more looking and found one that is a closer match, but the letter "R" on the Cooper looks different than in Brand in some of the shots, so I went with what was pretty close to me.
the background is now gone as it isn't stitched in the final patch anyway.
The colors are off in the endurance patch just because of the process of stitching and there is no background because it's on twill fabric. but here is the endurance patch.
I'll stitch em all and put up pics soon.

I think the shade ring would work fine as long as the ID(inside Dimension) is 10" Dia, and since it is a lighter gauge it would be easier to work with, and it has a rolled edge plus the weight.

I just watched the blu ray extras feature on the Spacesuits for the 10 time!! I don't have a blu ray player in my computer so I can't save any screen shots, and there a bunch I would like to get from this segment, anybody here could it for us? Just post them to this thread for all to use as reference.

Looks great for a first try on, I can see where you need to adjust some positions, chest sits too low, shoulder pads also need to sit higher.
Here is my back pack refined with the latest reference, other that guessing at the dimensions I thing this one is 90% of the original.

What kind of material did you utilize for the neck seal?
Looks somewhat like vinyl (Maybe)?
Thanks!
