nick.black Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 OK all UKG Sandtroopers! About time we stepped up and got ourselves a group that we can be proud of. We have stood out as a shining beacon of what is good about Sandtroopers for long enough and finally there are enough of us to get a proper group together and gain some identity. So let's have a discussion here, including those who would want to join the patrol and ideas for names and badges. I reckon we can get our very own Martin (RebelScum) to make some patches. And we could maybe even look at T-shirts or something. Here's some of my initial designs I came up with based on the name JUBILEE PATROL Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCRIBBLER Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 The Union Jack pauldrons would be epic, Nick!! The only thing to take note of is that I think we cannot include "MEPD" anywhere in the patrol logos per Gordon (GORDONATOR) Please double check with him. Good luck with the formation of the 'Super Patrol' and we are all looking forward to seeing you guys when all is said and done. You definitely have the support of us 'yanks' over here!

inglorious trooper Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 well that didnt take long nick, for me i love the name and love the designs(i think its the second one for me,but i like them both) im sure there will be plenty more ideas for names etc.,but i think JUBILEE will take some beating,very patriotic!! really looking forward to seeing something happening here,and you know where i am if i can help,but i can see this maybe being yours and brads baby!! GOOD LUCK BRO!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Versku Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Ooh hard one ! Love them both and may be veering toward the first one. The second one has a captain pauldron so would that be the only version or you gonna incorporate the sergeants and corporals ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pashnak Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Loving this idea and would def like to be part of it. Will put my thinking helmet on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if we go for that one then I can certainly design the logo for each pauldron colour and ask Martin if he can do separate versions.

inglorious trooper Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 haha,got mixed up(dont know how,it doesnt take a lot though) i like the first,love the flag and lid graphics!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inglorious trooper Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 name wise the only one ive got so far is "ROYAL PATROL",still prefer jubilee though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smally Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Hey troops, I love the pauldron with the union flag deign as well as the first logo. I think we should stay with that as I doubt it could be beaten! A couple of ideas for names: Britannia patrol (Britannia rules the dunes lol) Winston patrol (named after Churchill or visa versa) Lion heart patrol Just a few to play about with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elegance Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Hi guys, I realise im not cleared yet but thought id add my 2pence worth if thats ok. I love the pauldron, really really good. As for names Jubilee Patrol is also great, a couple of others I came up with are - Noble Patrol (noble English gentlemen we all are) or Valiant Patrol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smally Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Okay guys lets get his thing instated before MEM 2013! Stick your name down here if you're interested in becoming a member of the UK patrol (we can still throw in ideas for the name). Ill start off the list here with those that I KNOW will be up for it, just copy and paste while adding your name: Nick.Black Sir Dave Dave Mars Joe Versku Pashnak Inglorious trooper Elegance Smally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick.black Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 Awesome, in the famous words of a character from another Sci-Fi franchise ...... "LET'S ROCK!!!" Here is another logo that I have been playing with, maybe it can be incorporated into a shield or square patch idea or something. Drawn from scratch in Photoshop.

Dazauto Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I think both designs are great and after looking at them both several times I think number one is my favorite with the union jack pauldron as it really stands out. Im up for becoming a member once my TD is finished and hopefully cleared ( this will be a good motivator for me to get it done). A great idea well done Nick for starting this up.

nick.black Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 OK I can see the concensus is towards my first design. So I've tweaked it a little bit. Let me know what you think of the colours as I was playing with all sorts of different colours and had a hard decision but I thought yellow stood out the most. I can make it sand or something else though. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick.black Posted December 19, 2012 Author Share Posted December 19, 2012 Here again I actually reduced the size of the pauldron as I thought it was looking rather large due to perspective from actual base photograph. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smally Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I would love to have that as a patch. You're right, the re-size is much better dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pashnak Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I'm mulling over something with PAX in it, Pax Britanica, Pax Eisley etc (Pax Britanica is Latin for "the British Peace") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick.black Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 Another idea is "Britannia" patrol and we could maybe be "The Royals" as a knickname. Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
