I like all of these...I do have a comment about the car in the center...from a perspective point of view. The passenger window looks a little of whack...the top edge of the glass and the sill edge should be parallel, or closer to parallel...does any else see this?

A little off. I don't think you will see it on a 3" badge. That section will be 1/4".

Car color wise I think we should stick to the popular colors or the flag colors.

red, yellow, black, silver. Yellow may add horsepower to the badge.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I'm just wondering if Sir Andy thought this would go smoother. I personally thought there would be more entries and one entry would just stand out with sunbeams shining down on it. So many talented people on this site that make parts and others that save rust buckets. Graphic design team we seem to be missing. I like all the entries and thank everyone that submitted. Andy will have a tough decision.

Some of the 70 cars were built in 69 but I think the first "model" year was 1970.

I really like the idea of the German flag Black/Red/Gold in the center and using the 914 outline as well.


So, here are 4 more suggestions, with both gold and white accents ...

I like the second and fourth. Love the dates on the side, the silhouette of the car, and does not look like the club badge examples people have posted.

Dates are tricky; looks like we are dating the world. Two more gold and chrome. Remember these are badges so lettering and borders/outlines are polished/plated metal. Unless we are just printing the whole thing on a badge.

If the real thing like Mikey914 shows, then designs need to accommodate. So if its gold; the metal is gold and the badge is gold. Chrome lettering, chrome badge. Andy's gold lettering on a chrome badge will need to be painted.

These can be with or without gear outline shape.

If you're going to use the German flag colors, please make sure you put them in the correct order.

If it has the years designation, I think it should have all years not just beginning and ending years. Perhaps something like this (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

I like this one without the 914 in the middle and add the gear teeth.

Any chance they can be offered in both "gear" edge and smooth? I know a lot of people like the gear edge but it's just not my "stein of Heineken".

I’m leaning towards SirAndy’s proposal (post #166). I’m curious as to how it would look with a few modifications to his lower left image.

Specifically, change the center globe top half with a hammer-textured recessed “Earth” and smooth raised “Lat/Long” lines (both same finish as outer ring gear). I’d change the flag color order (obviously), but instead of printing out “914” in the center, I'd recommend a chrome vehicle silhouette (or raised silhouette outline) on the black flag portion. On the red portion, I'd recommend “1970-1976” in black.

The large “914” is not necessary (redundant) with the top outer circle reading “914WORLD.COM”. Either “Member” or “Vereinsmitglied” on the bottom (non-committal).

Also, by leaving out the “obvious to us” “914”, we can answer stupid questions with “It’s Ferrari – don’t touch”...Italian accent optional.

Thoughts? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I like the whole car outline a lot more than just the top window
years make it confusing....are those the years you are a "member"?
