Sometimes I Get Awesome Gifts... (From Scheibler)

thank you Will Scheibler! check out what he DIYed, and he even sent me one!

message from Will:

"Thought of making a fake farm team jersey of your Pittsburgh Invaders one for Thunder Bay (where I live). Used your INVADERS logo script and was thinking of either using the 3rd alien you didn't use or the mystery space ship. Maybe since it would be a farm team use the alien you have on the front of yours for the shoulders. I have a black jersey with yellow stripes (like the Bruins from the 80s) that has screen printing on the front I could cover over with a logo.

Incorporated the main geographical thing Thunder Bay is "famous" for - the Sleeping Giant (it's even on the city's flag) , and then added some waves on top. Originally thought of using all the colours in the flag but decided that would be way too much. Anyway, after goofing around for a while here's what I came up with so far"

here is the Sleeping Giant:

 

here is the beautiful Thunder Bay flag:

i mean really, is that flag gorgeous, or what?!?!

here is the logo Will drew up:

 

here is the jersey Will DIYed:

 

icing on the cake... here is a logo he sent to me! really, the camera/pic just doesn't do this logo justice! it's absolutely top notch work:

thanks again to the hardest working man in the DIY world, Mr. Will Scheibler!
