GolfVenture Posted February 27, 2013 Share #1 Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) I've been working on a 1st Gen Patch. I've had some comments that it would be nice to have a patch specfically for a 1st Gen. I've modified the previous Venture patch to be more 1st Gen specific. I'd like to open it up for suggestions. One goal was to have major colors to represent the various colors as close as I can. (Black/White/Blue/Maroon/Blonde/ I'm trying to get a darker and bright blue and a darker and brighter maroon. I'm going to change the big V from maroon to tan for there seems to be this thing about Blondes. I'm hoping to have the Number "1" available in the major colors except White. I will experiment the various objects to different colors for eye appeal. The Blue and Maroon object might get switched. The Balls on crowns might get colors to match the various colors. 1300 will also be available Open to your suggestions but can't make any promises.

rickardracing Posted February 27, 2013 Share #2 Posted February 27, 2013 I don't have a first gen, but that is a pretty nice looking patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bongobobny Posted February 27, 2013 Share #6 Posted February 27, 2013 You've got my interest Brian! My comment, the emblem you are using still looks like a "Star" patch. First gens are pre "Star" line... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First gens are pre "Star" line... Just a suggestion, instead of the '1', '1st Gen' would be more descriptive.

MiCarl Posted February 27, 2013 Share #12 Posted February 27, 2013 I think it looks great. 1200 is only the MKIs though. What about us MKII folks with 1300 engines? Might be able to substitute something like "V4" to cover both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I can incorporate that some where Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin-vic-b.c. Posted February 27, 2013 Share #14 Posted February 27, 2013 I like the idea of the "fancy V" someone here long ago told us what font name made that fancy V but I do not recall it. And I am also supporting the notion that all Ventures are not Royales' and many are 1300s as was clarified earlier. But and awesome starting point, I am sure there has been much work put into it and it is great you are doing this..... yes I will take a few when they are done.

Condor Posted February 27, 2013 Share #15 Posted February 27, 2013 OK...here goes. Instead of 1stGen, why not '1983-1993 Venture', drop the Royale, drop the 1200, and unless I'm color blind the 83's were not tan or blond, they were gold and still are. I haven't ever seen a tan or blond Venture.... I'll go back to my corner now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBJ Posted February 27, 2013 Share #21 Posted February 27, 2013 My only suggestion is like others have a 4 for V4 and remove the Royale for those that don't have that model other that that I like it and want one when its ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
