Very nice niche addition…good stuff. I was looking at my rack of medals and ribbons, 21yrs active duty US Marine Corps, US Coast Guard, and US Homeland Def. I would also look to offer various weapons qualifications medals/ribbons/badges pistol
rifle
machine gun
grenade
atomics
saber
etc. These sort of medals/ribbons usually have a basic, sharpshooter, and expert as well as multiple qualifications; expert with a 7 reflects 7 times expert.

There are sources for the medal badges that you could add to the end of the ribbons. Buy one, modify it significantly, mold/cast :) |

Not all ribbons have medals. And usually the two are worn in full dress on separate sides with badges below ribbons…at least here in the US, but it makes sense.
In this example there are collar pieces, pins, badges, epaulet bits, ribbons without medals on the right, and medals over the heart. |

Russian girl saluting in her grandfather's dress jacket…the same sort of higher precedence medals over the heart hold true. |

The long ribbons you use are fun and different, which match the market in question quite well IMO. |

CW I have two of that same gun on my table this very second. These are the two I just finished (not steamy…more Buck or Flash)…the two that are the same model as yours are still drying, waiting for the primary coat to set
***** The ribbons look great…makes me want to seek out a source for the material :) |

I just picked up some Blood Angels bitz to use as 40K ribbons, but that's just for support around the store. Would love some of these as well! How about Aeronef pilot 'wings', or steam tank driver? I'm waiting on some re-issue of Foglio Studio badges based on Girl Genius as surprise gifts to my Dystopian Wars friends… ;->= Where's the gun from? I've plenty of failing Nerf and cheap squirt guns in queue, though. Doug |
