there's 3 of each left for pre-orders, so you can grab a glass moon pin or kintsugi kid pin asap but there will be extras! pre-orders will get priority for standard grade pins though.

in the spirit of transparency i want people to be aware that the mikey pins are incorrect (pin on the left, sticker on the right)

he's missing the shadow in his mouth and the tail highlight screenprint shape is wrong

this is completely my fault not the manufacturer

i missed these mistakes during the proofing stage and told them everything looked good and to send them to production

it wasn't until later when i was looking at progress photos they sent that i went back to look at the proof and saw the mistake

because of the time difference, when i emailed my rep about it, it was too late as everything was already finished

since it was my mistake and not theirs i would have had to pay for another batch of the mikeys with the correct design then i would have had 2x the amount of mikeys not to mention i needed to pay for other merch i wanted made so i decided not to remake them however, if the pins sell out and there's enough people wanting more, i can make another order and those mikeys will be correct

it's very important to me to be honest about things like this

Top Design Considerations for Custom Enamel Pins and Brass Plaques

Enamel lapel pins and brass signage are versatile and timeless forms of artistic expression, branding, and commemoration. Whether youre creating a custom pin for your organization or designing a brass plaque to mark a significant achievement, several key design considerations can elevate your project from ordinary to extraordinary. This blog post will explore the essential factors to remember when conceptualizing and executing these unique pieces, ensuring that your enamel pins and brass plaques capture attention and stand the test of time.

Design Elements for Enamel Lapel Pins

1. Size and Shape

The first step in creating a standout enamel pin is determining its size and shape. Consider the pin’s purpose and where it will be worn. A smaller, subtle design might be preferable for everyday wear, while a larger, more intricate pin could be ideal for special events or collector’s items.

2. Color Palette

Pick a color palette that compliments your brand or message. Enamel pins offer a range of color options, from bold and vibrant to subtle and sophisticated. Remember that contrasting colors can make certain elements pop, drawing the eye to crucial details.

3. Texture and Finish

Decide between hard and soft enamel for your pins. Hard enamel provides a smooth, polished surface, while soft enamel offers a textured feel with slight indentations. Each type has its unique appeal and can enhance different design aspects.

4. Metal Base and Plating

Select the appropriate metal base and plating for your pins. Options like gold, silver, or copper can dramatically alter the overall look and feel of the final product. Consider how the metal will complement your chosen enamel colors.

5. Typography and Iconography

If incorporating text or symbols, ensure they are legible and well-balanced within the design. Simple, clear fonts often work best for small pins, while more elaborate typefaces can be used for larger designs or as decorative elements.

Crafting Impactful Brass Signage

1. Material Selection

While brass is the primary material, consider the specific type and quality of brass for your plaque. Factors such as durability, weather resistance, and patina development over time should influence your choice.

2. Size and Proportions

Determine the appropriate size for your brass plaque based on its intended location and purpose. Consider the viewing distance and ensure that all elements are proportional and readable from the expected vantage point.

3. Text Layout and Font Choice

Carefully plan the layout of your text, considering hierarchy and readability. Choose fonts that complement the overall design and are easily legible. Sans-serif fonts often work well for modern designs, while serif fonts can lend a more traditional feel.

4. Engraving Depth and Technique

Decide on the engraving method and depth. Deep engravings can create dramatic shadows and are more durable, while shallower engravings offer a subtler look. Consider techniques like etching or relief for added dimensionality.

5. Finish and Patina

Select a finish that enhances your design and suits the plaque’s environment. Options range from high-polish to brushed or antique finishes. Consider how the brass will age and develop a natural patina over time.

In Conclusion

Designing custom enamel lapel pins and brass signage requires a thoughtful approach that balances aesthetics, functionality, and durability. By carefully considering elements such as size, material, color, and composition, you can create pieces that serve their intended purpose and become cherished keepsakes or enduring markers of significance.

I am SO not ready to start serious work on this just this moment, but yea, they opened up applications and I had to panic put something in and... I decided I'm going to do the Asimov inspired pin set and I thought you folks in the fandom would want to know. :) I don't know what date Pintopia 2025 is happening yet, but I know it's in January of 2025.

I have 5 designs ready, though they need some tweaking, and they'll be unlocked one at a time. I have a large 6th design (not shown) that is about 50% done that I need to sit down and noodle on to finish up. The first design that will trigger the whole thing is the Assembly design. The order of design unlocks will probably be determined via a poll in the campaign.

You can subscribe to get notified of when the project launches using this link here in case you're afraid you might miss it. A lot of people are like "who is Asimov exactly?" so I'mma need your help on this one (but also I'm hoping the designs are cool enough on their own that it won't matter if someone knows the characters or not).

I'll be finishing up all of the designs and building out the page likely right after my sci-fi book crowdfunder ends (starting end of Sept) but I'll start seriously shouting about this prob in November. I appreciate anyone signing up for it now, though, and passing the word along to your Daneel and Giskard loving friends.
