Really cool idea, need an easy way to distinguish ourselves from the Ukrainian reddit war veterans. I had some ideas, not much of an artist but I gave it my best shot.

I actually quite like the Idea of a Gadsden flag patch, probably because I'm one of those lolbertarian retards your mom warned you about

I saw a couple of people mention an SAS style patch, I made an attempt to put one together with the kiwi replacing the knife and corn cobs for wings. I also thing "Who Laughs Wins" is a weirdly appropriate motto for the forum.

Please forgive the crudely mouse written 'laughs' it was easier than trying to wrap text along a path in gimp.

The autism puzzle piece on a circular backing with the forum some sort of motto or 'unit name' plus the year of founding (which I don't actually know so I used a meme number) I stuck a couple of symbols on the pieces to reprisent stuff. (a kiwi, a corn cob and the cow off the front page)

The symbols on the autism badge made me think of a coat of arms like old kings used to have. This is the coat of arms for the house of Plantagenet (some old english royal family) with the lions and fleur de lese replaced with corn cobs and kiwis.

Also @Null the Air Cav have got a horse on their badge because they used to be regular cavalry. They got given helicopters in the 60s after everyone realised machine guns made cavalry useless after WW1. I didn't see anyone else explain when I skimmed the thread.

Good luck with this merch run, hope it goes better than the last one.
God Sneed you crazy basterd.
 
I'm probably late to the party, but @ShortRound was making patches a while back before he got put on the naughty list and forbidden from doing any financial transactions online ever again when someone was wearing one of his shirts at a banker-unapproved event. He might have insights on getting badges printed and all that.
I can put whoever in touch with the guy I outsourced a lot of my work I couldn't get to.
 
I think it would be forward thinking and monetisable to commit to two shapes/sizes (like a 4" roumd and a shield or lozenge) and do those two every year with different designs. But then always have some rockers or bars sold separately.

You sell a "TRUE AND HONEST" rocker for $50, people will buy that. And you can shit out a bunch of three-word injokes and shit and sell those. But make it so they will always fit around the yearly patch.

Maybe think about how the scouts manage to fit all their badges and shit together, go from there.
 
I'm really digging the dox hound one in the bottom right. Mostly because I'm a sperg who loves MG.
This, plus the sense of goofy motion works great with the droolhound.

I also love the "archive everything," both the sentiment and the absurdity of a fat li'l kiwi apologetically in a file folder. Nice clean lines/color for embroidery, too.

400 hours in mspaint. small indie artist please understand.

I want this to be made for the chance of someone retarded enough to think its from a real war and thank a Kiwi for their service.
 
Missed the opportunity for TRANCH WARFARE.
Nah, it's a deliberate choice. A bit more subtle that way, no?

Plus, if you wear a "TRANCH WARFARE" patch in public, I can guarantee that you are going to be constantly besieged by all manner of mouth-breathing troglodytes trying to tell you that this is not how you spell "trench".
 
This thread tickled my inspiration enough to emerge out of lurking. Here's a few ideas.
Lost my patience at the text editor tool.

I love the archive everything.

Also @Null you can cheaply make diy buttons or even pay a kiwi in America for the cheap ass equipment and give a cut to make it for you.... the ki/wi one would be great for that. Buttons are for silly. Patches are for super srs gayops
