Description
I started making these emblems instead of buying some, due to lacking time and money for ordering some before the upcoming convention where i plan to use them :3These are some small props for my cosplay which is Itsuki Minami, from Air Gear. Here's the reference: [link]
I've decided to use various team emblems instead of the emblems on his pants :3
What i did, was print out the emblems which i found various places on the internet. Then i laminated them in two layers to ensure solidness and less flexibility, to make them more "badge" like.

do you have a close up or an image of the one on the far right? the black and blue one that's a gear with a wing on it?

For future reference, you can use paperback laminate covers. One (of the two) sheets are already thick. We use them at my work (college library) and I've already made a few things already. Also, it eliminates the need for a laminator. I'll give you the actual brand name later, if you'd like.

They're quite simple to make. Just the cutting process that can be tiresome, since you gotta cut out small details, and cut in plastic D:

ahh. how did you get the plastic? do you have your own laminator thing did you have to buy stuff, or have it done?

Looks like i'll need to make two more as a minimum. I'll make sure to make Agito's and Spitfire's ^^

I've found Agito's emblem, Spitfire's and CokaFire's. I'll make sure to make those, and post a picture of all the emblems together, when i'm done adding pins to them :3

I was really trying hard to find his emblem! I only found one that wasn't anti-aliased here on DeviantArt, and i really didn't want to settle with that D:

Thanks
What i did, was find the emblems on google, then print them out on paper. I then used a laminating machine, a considerably cheap one, to laminate the cut out printed emblems. I laminated them in two layers, so that they were more badge like.
