Project Background
The Rochester Police Department approached us after noticing the custom badges we created for another department. Impressed by the quality and design, they were interested in having their badges revitalized and reproduced with a similar level of craftsmanship and attention to detail.
Project Description and Materials Used
Tasked with this exciting project, our first step was to digitize the images of the existing badges provided by the department. The goal was to convert these images into vector format, ensuring that the badges could be scaled up to a large size without losing clarity or quality.
For printing, we opted for latex ink, known for its durability and vibrant colors, applied to a sturdy 3mm J-Bond composite panel. This combination of materials was chosen for its longevity and ability to withstand various environmental factors, making it perfectly suited for the police department’s demanding needs.
Problem Addressed and Approach
Our primary challenge was accurately scaling the provided badge images up to 36″, a substantial size increase. This task required meticulous attention to detail in the digitization process to ensure that none of the original badge’s intricacies and symbols were lost.
Our approach combined manual craftsmanship with advanced digital techniques, allowing us to preserve the integrity and details of the original design while adapting it for large-scale reproduction.
Project Benefits and Outcomes
