Sci-Fi Group badge ?

Hey I am only a newbie on this forum, but I like the idea of the C57-D from Forbidden Planet. That is certainly a “classic” Sci-Fi image and recognisable for everyone.
Here is an example:

Dan ,

I think you may have hit nail on the head here , while we do seem to have different ideas of what the badge should be maybe we should all just have a badge that signifies what each of us are more into . Some memebers like Star Trek more than Star Wars and so on , I would like to ask you if you wouldn’t mind if I used your X-wing since I like Star Wars and build more Star Wars kits than anything , plus it’s just the right size .

I like that too. One “phrase” that binds us together but each of us choosing the specific area of interest in a pic(or pics). How 'bout “To infinity and beyond!” [:D]

I would be careful with using copyrighted images, there are already too many C&D orders out there. [;)]

OTOH, how about something like the image below:

This idea sounds pretty good to me as well. What do you think about voting on the finished model images from the group build and making the group favorite the badge? I also like Dan’s project sketch as a badge.

No problem, Walt…

Woody…I agree with you on the finished model image vote idea…that would be cool!
And thanks for the sketch complement.

Regards, Dan

Pete ,
That image is pretty cool too , can you add the Sci-Fi logo in it ?

Going along with the copywrite laws
Why not wait for that Starfighter Scratch build to be done and then use an image of the best of that lot? You don’t step on any feet and it makes this part of the forum personal.

Another idea: Someone here might know someone else who would let there artwork be used for a logo.

The badge idea is a good one. I think we should vote on the ideas presented and chose one. Can we agree at the very least that “A” badge is better than no badge? I will deal with one that I’m not a 100% with to show my support to the Sci-Fi group.[;)]

I agree with you Woody 100%

So this is what we have so far:

What if we each have three votes? We can post our three choices on this post and see which badge idea gets the most votes. If there is a tie, we will vote again to narrow down the choice to one.

Regards, Dan

My votes are for 13, 9, and 1. In that order. I really like 13 alot.

I like 12, 13 and 14.

I like 1,2 and 13

I couldn’t help myself, I liked 13 so much I just had to use it.[:D]

Hmmmm…I’ll vote for 1, 12, and 14. Will there be text added to the winner?

I like 4, 12 & 13

We will have to add some text to the winner.

It looks like this so far:

13 has 4 votes.
1 and 12 have 3 votes each.
14 has 2 votes
2 ,4 and 9 have one vote each.

I’ve just seen that model this past week and I can’t, for the life of me, remember what company makes it. Polar Lights?? It looked to be fairly good in size too.

I like 12, 13, and 4 in that order - if my $.02 is worth inserting.
