Original handpainted jacket patch A-2 etc

[Bunyip]

G'day guys,
I'm chasing someone to hand paint a patch for me. I've seen a couple of guys here advertising their wares, I just cannot seem to find the thread. Can someone please point me in the right direction?
Cheers.

If you would like to step up a grade, contact Sean Collins. He does layered leather patches, not painted. They have a 3-D effect and are really nice. A bit more expensive, but worth the extra cost! He has done work for me and pics have been posted on this forum. [email protected]

For painting, you might contact Daniel McQuality...he does real nice work and is very reasonable. [email protected]

Simon does them - UK based - often has examples on eBay but I can't remember his eBay name

I have many of his layered leather patches (even some custom made one-of-a-kind pieces). His work is impeccable.

Fantastic, thanks so much for all the help guys. There are some amazing pieces out there...

Depending on what sort of patch, you could look at Roberto Bandecca at http://www.italianpatchmaker.it
He did the patches for my ANJ-3 and he's a pleasure to work with and reasonably priced - he'll do whatever you like and work with you to get the details right and just as you like them - he also has an "aging" process which is excellent.
Like all artists and commissions, you have to like his personal style - so look at his website (or whoever you're interested in) and ask to see other works … Good luck!

This is a photo of my Aero ANJ-3 with the patches I mentioned. Roberto also made me an unoffcial nametag to go with the unofficial shoulder patches, which I really like.
I would say though, that if you're rather looking for a bomb squadron or group patch, I would expect to see more artistic style within that work, so as I said, I'd just make sure you like whoever's style it is you opt for.
