Well, here they are: my Standard Badges for 2013. I've wanted to do myself a new badge for some time now, and I used this as an opportunity to design a new badge type. Shown here is the one I made for myself, and the one I did as a gift for my good friend  scribbledragon.

There is really nothing standard about these: rather, I like to think of them as setting the standard for all other badges. There is nothing gimiky about them. Instead I designed them to be sort of a catch-all kind of badge. They have everything: they show off your character, they have nice, clean lettering, and they are of a size (approx 3"x5.75") that is large enough to be eye-catching but small enough to be worn comfortably.

In short, if you are in need of a snazzy go-to badge, this is what you want.

Originals are colored pencil on vellum bristol board, sealed with fixative. Commissions for them open MONDAY!
