Coming up with a design is the best part of ordering a set of military pins. Custom artwork will often incorporate unit emblems or references to service branches, but that only scratches the surface of all the possibilities for design. Options like cut outs, cut to shape artwork, dual plating and full 3D designs are all used to recreate important military badge designs with incredible detail.
High polish gold and silver plating are excellent options for anyone looking to create a lifelike military badge design, but we also have antique plating options and colored metal options that help any style of military pin stand out from the crowd.

Depending on what style of artwork you’re looking for, our team may suggest certain types of pins that are best suited for your ideas. Die struck pins are perfect for cut to shape designs in the form of aircraft, unit crests, or specific military badges because of their pure metal appearance. For customers looking for a splash of color, one of our military enamel pins is the best way to go.
Soft enamel pins are well known for their traditional appearance and layered texture. Enamel paint is added to the recessed portion of the artwork while the raised parts of the design prevent the colors from mixing. This gives the artwork a sense of depth and a classic appearance.
Cloisonne is another popular option for military enamel pins. Instead of the colors laying in the recessed portions of the design, the recessed areas of a cloisonne pin are filled to the brim with a special resin. Once the pins are kiln fired so the colored resin can set in place, they’re put aside to cool and then polished by hand to get a smooth, glossy finish.
If you’re not sure what type of pin is best for your design, just let us know. Our art team is happy to put together multiple free proofs and offer suggestions based on our years of experience as one of the best custom pin makers online.
