OK, so what does everyone think of this idea?

The thought is to make a "base" Thunderbird Flocking patch and then have the Year and Locations in "chevrons" under it.

Open for comment, compliment, criticism or crap. :)

Gonzo , like your work.
Only criticism / suggestion , I get the world background behind
The tbird logo but it neglects the most important hemisphere and
Country
May be add a section above theplace names that identifies as the
World renown Aussie Flocking that way our overseas brothers
Could use the design for their own attempts at world supremicy
PS like the less colorful design more , but then I ride a blackbird
Cheers
Pete

You can see the UK is a stylised depiction. It's never been seen from space without cloud cover!

Gonzo I like the patch and chevrons but like Pete suggested, if you can find artwork with the southern hemisphere on it would be better.

The chevrons should be limited to those who attended particular Flockings,. in my opinion. That may be a bit hard to organise?
