I don't know which one is the most movie accurate, but the first GB1 patch looks amazing. And I've never wanted a GB2 patch, but now that I've seen yours, it's almost tempting!

On your nametags, can you do different colored borders? I've got a black flightsuit that I keep meaning to turn into a spare GB suit, but I'd like the very border of the patch to be red like the letters.

Joey now has the GB2 alphabet with my notes and references. The references I used are the ones from GBFans along with some screen-used HQ photos and random pics I found of Ernie in his charcoal suit from cons. Lastly, I just looked for higher quality movie shots.

Those patches look really awesome with fabric for the white parts, Joey!

I have held real patches from the runs done for the films. The white is never stitched, and these are just to clean. I mean that in a no flaws kinda way. The GB2 circle is actually more of a oval and there is no glue on the back so the material is more of a felt and kinda looks fuzzy up close. The GB1 patch (under the GB2 patch), stitching is correct. Also there are no boarders on the patches.
I know sounds kinda nit picky but I am just trying to help and pass on what I have learned form other people. If you are going for screen accurate, if not They they look pretty awesome!!

Out of the 3 GB1 patches I like the first one the most.

Top gb1 logo I like the best. If the white for the gb2 patch could be the same as the gb1 that would look nicer I think.

Outstanding! I'll definitely be picking up some patches as soon as the GB2 font is good to go. Also, I'm sure we can get the GB2 Ghost logo with white fabric ghost as opposed to fully embroidered, correct?

Keep up the good work man!

Ordered a GB2 nametag with orange letters along with some other stuff. I'll be posting a pic of my patches later on. Joey's work is always great! :cool:

Got my GB2 nametag. Here is a comparison. Top is Katarra8, bottom is Joey.

I think my only criticism is that the text may be slightly too small compared to the tag itself. See:

But the key here is that the font looks right!

Looks awesome! I literally typed over the letters and adjusted the alphabet for the scale to the tag. We used this as reference:

In that case, it looks great :) I guess it can't be helped that I have a short name ;)

Looks a thousand times better than the old tag though. That "J" really bothered me.

The biggest thing here is...


WE FINALLY HAVE A SOURCE FOR ACCURATE GB2 NAME TAGS!!!!!

Fyi. From looking at the screen used patches, it seems the letters all stayed the same size. They just spaced them less for the longer names and got longer tags. The file I gave Joey includes all the movie names with spacing and tag sizes matched to photos as well as TULLY, MELNITZ and ROOKIE which I spaced appropriately. By the way thanks for being so cool about all this Ghostbusters stuff, Joey!
