Title: [Working on Images] Hammer and Sickle
Post by: Lukasevic on Tue, 01 May 2012, 19:43:24: Would anyone be interested in trying to put together a group buy for the Hammer and Sickle? I've been looking around and do not see that one has ever been made in double shot. I've seen the Chinese flag before:

I am just curious how much interest there would be for a key like this:

Thanks for your time/input :peace:

I'm going to run it, but I have some other keys up my sleeve that I am going to add in to the buy. Working out SVGs and Quotes so the order thread should be up in a day or so.

Post by: Reptar on Wed, 02 May 2012, 23:45:39: It might look good to have the key red and the hammer and sickle part black. Just throwing out an idea.

I also think red on black would be sweet looking. But I wanted the traditional feel for the yellow symbol on red plus the Chinese flag would also match in a set! :cool:

Post by: IvanIvanovich on Thu, 03 May 2012, 09:57:36: Some of those other ones are complex and would need to be dyesub. I would prefer to have just the 1 key really. Though if going for a set, why not do the SSR colors? Same hammer and sickle legend, just different colors. So there would be a yellow on red, yellow on light blue, red on light blue, yellow on dark blue, yellow on green, yellow on white... and I think there is a few more combos, I would need to look it up.

Post by: IvanIvanovich on Thu, 03 May 2012, 10:30:50: Yes, the flags... but there was some simplified 2 color things I've seen. Not sure what they were for, but they were squares of color with hammer and sickle and the SSR name only.

Post by: Lukasevic on Thu, 03 May 2012, 15:18:38: If a legend is made by SP, is it usable in the future for other group buys if we decide to reuse it?

Post by: Hak Foo on Thu, 03 May 2012, 23:08:19: It might be hard to render faces well, and then there's the issue of picking the "canonical" portrait of a historical figure. Yeah, for Che it's easy, but there are quite a few images of the others to pull from.

The flags are simple and direct.
