take a look at the back of your Malta patches and that will give ya an idea how there made ....

I do think the  Finnish insignia on the planes wing need to be sharpened up .. but then it maybe hard to tell from the scan ..

other then that ... WAYYYYYYYYYYY Cool . I cant wait to get my paws on them and Get Flooded with Emails again :rolleyes:  

(not yet guys ... wait til there done ... )

I'm still iterating with the patch company to get the design tweaked.  I'll keep everyone updated on the progress.

People will be able to get one no matter where they live -- no worries.

Here is the latest patch proof.  Let me know what you think, folks.

This is a higher-res scan, but scans (with their bright light) have reflection off the threads, causing the scan to look brighter and more grainy (by a lot) than in real life lighting.  I did this higher-res scan so that we could see the symbols on the wings better.  For the look of the patch in real life, the earlier-posted one gives a better representation.

The greenish Russian fighter is a little darker, as is the gray background.  The bars on the Finnish flag are equal thickness.  The German and Finnish symbols on the aircraft wings are not all that legible, but I don't think much can be done about that at their size.  The hands, arms, and swords came out well, though.  I like it better without the gray highlighting around the black aircraft, but let me know what you folks think.

Looking at it in real life, it looks a lot better than this scan.  I'm pretty happy with it at this point, but let me know what you think over the next few days so that I can do another turn on the design or tell them to go ahead.

I think the only change I'd recommend is getting rid of the gray stitching outline around the black aircraft.

Good work Brooke!

Definitely leave the gray stitching away from black planes! They look much better in the first pic.

"TM" was supposed to be superscript, right?

OK, I have in a request to make the "TM" more like a superscript and to get rid of the gray outlining around the black aircraft.  I'll let you know when I get the result of the request.
