This took about 30 hours and had to do some of the enamel three times to get it right.
Beautiful workmanship Mike.

That's exceptional work Mike, especially the last badge which looked more like a resurrection.
Ever thought about expanding into the 356 enamel badge world?

Very similar but half the size, you'll just need a bigger magnifying glass!

Expanding my knowledge. This is the first time I have had a 356 badge in my hands.
Isn't it just the cutest wee thing you ever saw. Baby badge.
