    Hi everyone,

    I need a Flyer to promote our Challenge Coin Business, the Flyer needs to be aimed at the British Military so possibly a watermark of a collage of British Military in the background (there are lots of great pictures from Afghanistan etc. on Google, need the British Army, Royal Navy and Royal Air Force all represented in the watermark).

    Please add the pictures of the coins you can see below and attached, up to the designers where to add these for best effect.

    We need the following info in there somewhere:

    UK Challenge Coins is run by former British Soldiers to provide Challenge Coins, badges and other products to Military Units and other Organisations.
    We pride ourselves on providing prompt efficient service coupled with competitive pricing, our Coins are of the Highest Quality.

    We can provide a unique momento for your tour and/or unit, in any design, with a range of finishes and options such as personalised engraving or numbering.
    We support Forces Charitable Organisations such as Holidays4Heroes and we are the manufacturers of the very popular British ARmy Rumour SErvice (ARRSE) & UK Veterans Challenge Coins.

    Our graphic artist works with your designs and ideas until you are fully satisfied with a final design prior to production. We can deliver the coins, or other products to you in theatre or to your Unit's Home Address.

    Everything can be done electronically by email to



    *Prices vary according to options chosen, please contact us for a quote or to discuss your requirements*


    And also the E-Mail: info @ ukchallengecoins dot com and the website address www dot ukchallengecoins dot com both in there.

    I would also like to see these comments from happy customers in the flyer:

    "Package arrived today in sunny Deutschland. The coins are absolutely top notch quality.
    Many thanks."
    TW

    "Coin arrived today. Very pleased with it - thanks very much!"
    Fubar

    "Vet coin arrived today and looks mighty good."
    Tankie88

    "My Veterans Coin arrived yesterday, and what a great looking coin it is too. I shall put it away somewhere safe until I need it."
    Quaker



    The Flyer needs to be printable so a good DPI is required. Depending on how good the winning design is, you will almost guarantee yourself further work from us in the coming weeks/months.


    Various Coins from our stock that you can use to add to the design:

    I am attaching more pics to this and other messages after this as I am limited to 5 attachments.

    Good Luck everyone and I wish you all the best with this, I am not a graphic designer so I need you to come up with what you think would look a great flyer. We need this fairly soon so I would like the contest to end Mid-Day UK Time on Friday 12th Feb.

    I don't think flyer's are really peoples specialty haha most of them do banners and logos :p Perhaps advertise it as a huge banner and more people will participate haha Good luck to you, if i was artistically skilled I would have a go but im not :(

    Thanks Tim,

    I think you are underestimating the talent of the members on here, there have been some excellent Flyers produced in the contests here.

    We will have the need for Banners etc. soon also, but for now we need a Flyer designed :D

    This first effort looks excellent!

    Can you fit the picture of the RAF Airplane Tornado in there somewhere?

    Also, Challenge is spelt wrong at the top, other than those points, this first effort is excellent!

    An idea, maybe move the comments around and have a smaller two ship picture with a comment next to it then under the ship another comment with the Tornado Airplane pic next to that comment? that green effect is really good.

    Also would it be possible to add in a couple of the coin pics somewhere in and around the main writing at the bottom left side? i.e. show a bit more of the coins.

    For some reason I didn't see this earlier! again, another excellent entry! Great use of the coin pics as they look clear but again not enough of our coin images, I was thinking of the E-Goat front and back large pic maybe featuring somewhere.

    The military pics are good but for the Army I would definitely prefer a decent pic from Afghanistan...

    thought id take a whack at it,
    more of contempory theme aimed at a5 prints for flyers.

    I havnt added the quotations as the idea was to keep focus on the coins and let them speak for themselves.

    All 5 of the above designs are excellent in their own way! guys, as you have all put together such excellent Flyers (all need some changes which I will mention individually if you all agree to the following) and we don't want even one of you to lose out, would you all agree to $20 each for your final approved designs? let me know here please and then I will let you know what changes we need in each who agree.

    Thank You!

    Overwhelmed by the number of and the excellent Quality of each design!

    Arunafex,

    Thank you, for yours can you put for the E-Mail (my mistake on the info@) and can you make the 3 coin pairs much larger and the writing below smaller? the rest looks excellent, do you think you could watermark a couple of the coins in the pics on the left? and the coin pair at the top is a little small.
