Hi All

What I can do is scan one of my badges 2D redraw it then maybe someone could run it through a 3D program
I think I could redraw it pretty close.

The typeface looks familiar...Rockwell Extra Bold for the word NISSAN..
and just redraw the rest...

Stew...

This was my first attempt. I was useing homemade water based green casting sand. WOW was this fun, it took quite some time but it was a lot of fun. It didnt turn out real nice, but i dont think its too bad for my first attempt. I have some black casting sand that a teacher from my old high school is giving me, im hopeing its easier to use, i will keep practicing and keep you updated. :D
