Definitely like Dave's design, and Cory's adaptation. I also like the idea of the Maltese Cross for the current GB, but it could become cumbersome, trying to use for example, stars 'n bars, RAF roundel etc. What I would suggest is, keep the 'Medal' background, but in a 'neutral' colour, say nickel or stainless steel or bronze, remove the star at the bottom, and replace with a custom design avaitors wings. The ribbon can stay, with the relevant GB details. The First, Second and Third placed entrants can have a Gold, Silver or Bronze star above or below the wings.
If a build is for LAND warfare, then, below the ribbon, add a tank silhoutte, otherwise, the 'medal' background to remain plain, with the exception of the area above the ribbon, where ww2 aircraft .net can be inscribed.
What do you think?
Terry.
PS, if the first place winner also gets voted as best overall by the other entrants/members, then, a 'bar' (clasp) can be placed under the whole design.
