It’s time to start submitting your design or design idea(s) for our 2015 patch covering the Rohn Checkpoint!
Deadline for submitting 2015 patch designs is September 30. That gives us 2 months to get our ideas in to emwcee.
You don't even have to be an artist to submit a design or idea. Our patch company is great at producing the image you want from even rudimentary sketches and descriptive ideas. You could even use photos to give yourself ideas, be sure it's not a copyrighted one
The only things we REQUIRE someplace on the patch design, is:
1. The Year – “2015”
2. Now that we are no longer under the BSSD, we will drop those letters. Since Johncn named us iditabuds.com we should put that on the patch.
"iditabuds.com mushing forum"
3. The name of the Checkpoint, Rohn
4. Patch Company allows us 6 colors in our price range, so try to stick to 6 colors.
If you can include even a rough sketch of what you have in mind for your design, we can work with that. Just make it clear what you envision with a good description. The only rules of thumb to remember are to not make the design too busy with too many things, and not to have very small details, as very small things are lost in stitching process.
PLEASE send your sketches and/or idea(s) directly to emwcee by way of a PM.
PLEASE REMEMBER that you can submit a design or idea for ANY of the checkpoints. WE now have a Moderator Lounge section where we have a separate room for each and every remaining checkpoint already set up to store your designs where nobody else can see them until they are ready to be unveiled and voted upon.
So please get your designs and ideas in as soon as possible. Remember to include your forum AND real name with your design or idea so we can contact you easily.
Deadline for submitting design for 2015 Rohn Patch will be September 30. This way Emwcee can set up a voting poll and have 3-4 weeks open for members to vote. By early-mid October the design will then be submitted to the patch company for artwork. A mod will put the winning artist and the patch company in touch with each other.
IMPORTANT:
PATCH DESIGN WINNER WILL NEED TO BE IN CONTACT WITH THE PATCH COMPANY TO ASSURE THAT THEIR DESIGN IS PROGRESSING TO THEIR SATISFACTION. PATCH COMPANY WILL SEND BY EMAIL PATCH ARTWORK FOR DESIGNER TO OK OR ADD SUGGESTIONS OR CHANGES TO. PROMPT REPLIES TO COMPANY ARE NEEDED TO ASSURE OUR TIMELINE FOR PATCHES TO BE COMPLETE AND DELIVERED TO MEMBERS BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR.
Let the contest begin
