OK, looks like D is the main choice.

Kermit, for production purposes, could you move the Norway banner up a bit and reduce the size a bit of the banner ends (the ones that represent the banner curling back behind, as it is cloth, and when you stitch it onto something, those are going to catch on anything you brush against if it is on a jacket).

but, but, but, I wasn't done!
 :furious



I'll modify the bannor, plus I think a few wanted the words "the final battle" to be placed on a top, so I'll do that too.

While I like the patches presented, I really do hope there are others with finished or even unfinished ideas they could quickly post.

Time to pick one and get going, though.  Seems like D was far and away the most votes.

I am trying hard to fix D, as it has many things to add/correct.

I like all three for many reasons.  The first one differs with more symbolism and larger RAF/Luftwaffe symbols along with the War Flag of Norway.  The second one has the complex shape banner added to allow the word Norway to be easily seen, while the third one has the simplest shape overall.

I'm posting these for input to fix things such as font, text size, colors, resolution, or anything that needs to be correct if the community is going to want these made.  I sense your urgency, so I will work as quickly as possible based on feedback.

I like the middle one pretty well Kermit.  Wouldn't change a thing personally.

No banner on the top then?

Nope, I think the black bar with the lettering sets it off just right.

I like the first and second.

In the first one, I like how Norway branches off from the right side, where you can't see the entire country's outline. I also like the symbols on the left side, as well as the battle flag slightly offset to the left. What I don't really like myself, is the sword. It's a fancy idea and all, but I don't honestly think it belongs. Not to offend you, just my opinions  :)

On the second patch, I love the layout and overall look. If Norway was scooted over a bit and maybe enlarged like the first patch, or even simpler, the second patch made to look a bit more like the first, I personally think you would have yourself a perfect patch!

Though, in retrospect, I think the second patch is a beauty as is  :aok

Middle one Kermit, they are all nice, but the middle one just has an element of balance that just sets it apart.

Nice job.

Nothing clever here.  Please, move along.
