I need to someone to make about 10 cast label blanks.

I am wanting to make some commemorative pens with a few people i served with.

I would like the logo applied over the ribbon.
I attached 2 of the logos not sure which one to go with and the service ribbon.

Not sure what pen I want to use but want to find a single blank pen to use it on.
Maybe a recommendation of what pen to use.

This is a quick mock-up with the picture taken in lamplight, the paper is actually white, but I'm tired and headed for bed. Are you looking for something like this?

Chris yes but could you put the TFV logo on top of the ribbon also.

Look at the one he's got in the middle ... they are above the ribbon.

Unless you mean that you want it literally layered over top of the ribbon, in which case you wouldn't see the ribbon very well in the background?

Let me know if you still want someone to cast them. I have done a few silver foil custom logo blanks vs the standard white paper logo blanks.

Yes layered over top of the ribbon.could you make the ribbon the size of the blank then put the logo on top of it.

edit i see now that the ribbon is on one side and the logo is on the other. That might work also.
what pen would recommend using?

John:

Here are two that I came up with. Both are Sierra tube size. One has the ribbon making a band on the top and bottom and the other has the ribbon taking up the entire background (rotated 90 degrees) with the Task Force Viper logo on top.

I was just looking at exoticblanks site and think i would like to use Carbine Ballpoint Pen Kit

https://www.exoticblanks.com/Carbine-Ballpoint-Pen-Kit-Gunmetal.html

Would you be able to do it on that tube?

or a regular bolt action not sure if the tubes are different.

I apologize... I don't want to hijack your thread, but I look for most any reason to practice engraving so I can improve.
