CableGuy[Admin] Posted April 14, 2021 Report Share Posted April 14, 2021 Is it worth linking this thread via FB? I hate to admit it, but, I feel most people use socials more regularly than the forum. A little note with a link on the FB group might stir up some more entries. :-) 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etrooper70[TK] Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) My design has 2 variations - a regular solid coin and a coin with a cutout - of course the cutout would require a different back. Both feature enamel with glitter in it - something with a celebratory feel. I loved the fact that this is the one time where the number 15 can be found in FISD (with the right font of course) so that was really the basis of the idea, as well as including both OT and FO TK's. One that note I focused on the 3 colors found in the respective FISD logos - Clasic FISD Blue and Yellow, First order Red and Yellow - with Yellow being the unifying elements between the red and blue. Ive updated to include the word ANNIVERSARY. Here is the first version of the coin Here is the alternate design featuring cutouts around the troopers.

The first side takes some elements and colors from the FISD logo(s) as well as the back plate of the TK's. The second side has all the info. All using the colors and typefaces from the OP. This is an awesome design- my favorite one 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starsaber25[Admin] Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 Eric - Does your cutout design feature what I guess you could call a monetary edge like the first design? Or is it a solid edge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 Eric, as you know the EI coin is always a variant of whatever we have going on. So is it possible to see an EI version of this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the edge needs to be smooth as we usually have the numbers etched on the edge to keep track of EI coins too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 Yeah, usually they replace silver with gold and 100% for sure need to be able to support numbering. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct Eric, and no need to show a variant for EI based on the comments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger[IPM] Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 Tradition has just been a gold version to cut down on overall costs as vendors charge for overall quantity, so it’s cheaper to lump them together. Plus the whole cap on merch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May need @Sly11 to confirm as although it says "approved members" it also says "If you can see this post, you can enter" which obviously you can see 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m a forum member, but not a Legion member. But I wouldn’t have had a design to submit anyway.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted May 1, 2021 Report Share Posted May 1, 2021 At least historically we've never prevented people from submitting artwork. Our first webmaster and graphics guy was V'Pier, who never owned a TK. We had another DWM who also was not a 501st TK. Not sure what reason we'd give for only allowing 501st folk/TK to submit designs.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starsaber25[Admin] Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 I agree with Paul. I don’t see any reason why someone who is not an approved member couldn’t submit a design for the context. The only thing that would be a bummer if that person did win would be that they couldn’t purchase their coin. However, there would be no reason why that person couldn’t be gifted one for their efforts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
