... in authentic looking German Medals framed with an authentic looking Award document with your name or your kaleun's name on it to celebrate your SH3 accomplishments?

cool conversation piece and office decorations.

I can also do framed American Award Documents and medals in the same fashion for SH4.

I have a couple of the real thing hanging on my wall as a collectors piece from WW2, got the idea while admiting it that it would be cool I could replicate it with peoples SH3 names.

Just a thought.

got to be careful with the American medals, i guess if you wear them that is, it's against the law

GoldenRivet · 03-16-07, 02:20 PM

your right...

but who in their right mind would wear these things? I mean sure there might be a SH3/4 player or two who might go so far as to try one on for size but i would certainly hope nobody would go to the mall or to the movies in full WWII german or American decor hahaha

they are for collector or novelty value only and should remain in their frame and hung on the wall to look at.

its pretty neat, made one for a friend of mine,

the frame is black and silver, behind the glass on top is a standard award document in German Text. The paper can either be "aged" to look a good 60-70 years old or it can stay "new"... below the document is a knight's cross or an Iron cross or whatever you want there (corresponding to the document of course)

That looks damn fine. Though I might have a hard time explaining that to a girlfriend.

"No my grandfather wasn't a U-boat Ace... No no I... no he wasn't even German.
No... no I didn't beat up an old man for these... hey look you were undoing your bra now your shirts back on.... wait its just silly, its for this game I play... well yea I know it sounds weird... well until I met you there wasn't anything else to do... is it really that creepy? would it better if I had a saddle and wanted you to ride me? You are totally overe... oh so now you're leaving, great...

What do I do now?"

Sits down at computer and puts on his crusher cap...
