TK6287[TK] Posted March 11, 2013 Report Posted March 11, 2013 So for the past month or two I've been working on an idea for a stormtrooper ring. Originally was looking at a "class ring" style, but with the amount of detail in the logos I wanted to use it wouldn't be feasible. I came up with a design that would work and submitted it to a custom ring company to have made. I'm about 3 weeks away from getting it shipped to me but check out the image and let me know what you all think. Thanks Brian (TK-6287) Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted March 11, 2013 Report Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Very nice indeed, would it be possible to make others, different squad and garrison logos. Also did you get approval from the 501st for the design. Edited March 11, 2013 by gmrhodes13 Quote
TK6287[TK] Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Posted March 11, 2013 I'm sure it would. Just submit the logos and style ring you want to use and Ring Source will work it up for you and send you the design. I had to go with a "signet " style ring but depending on what you would want to do you might be able to go with a different style. I think they have over 280 styles to choose from. They even have free worldwide shipping and engraving. I'm having my TK ID engraved on the inside. Quote
TK6287[TK] Posted March 11, 2013 Author Report Posted March 11, 2013 Yes, approval for both logos was obtained. Quote
BIDS[TK] Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 That looks awesome mate. Will be very keen to see actual photo's of the ring when it's done, and get a ball park figure for it. Is it polished Stainless Steel or Stirling Silver? Quote
TK6287[TK] Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Posted March 12, 2013 It is sterling silver and is a bit pricey at over $500.00 USD. You can get it in stainless for over $400.00 but the shipping is free worldwide. I will definitely be posting actual pics when it comes in. Quote
BIDS[TK] Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 Thanks mate, looking forward to it. Quote
Vader Rocks Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 That ring looks awesome. Excited for you to get it, can't wait to see pics Quote
Baron Dirk Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 Jostens is another company that will do stuff like this. They make school rings, company anniversary rings and the SUPERBOWL rings. Where ever you go it's going to be pretty expensive though, especially for the first "prototype". On a side note have any of you seen that bilnged out R2D2 covered in Swarovski rhinestones? R2 be pimpin'. Quote
TK-42779[501st] Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 Holy hell that's awesome but pricey Quote
TK6287[TK] Posted March 13, 2013 Author Report Posted March 13, 2013 Thanks for input guys. I know it's a bit pricey, but you only live once and besides the wife gave it the ok. Gotta have the approval of the Senate before moves like this are made Quote
Baron Dirk Posted March 15, 2013 Report Posted March 15, 2013 Happy wife = happy life.... At least that's what the Imperial Trooper manual says. Are you getting her one too? That would be an awesome wedding ring at the next Star Wars fan wedding. Quote
TK6287[TK] Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Posted March 15, 2013 No, she isn't getting one. She really isn't a fan of Star Wars. Quote
