I too am using the Bonk font and, after blowing up that "Real Mera badges" picture I'm finding the word MERA has all sharp corners, minus a few. I'd need a sharp, close up shot of the original lettering to try and mimic it the best. I can also recreate the original MERA wheel centers if that hasn't already been done.

I see about the R though. I'll work on it. I like to do these things for my own as it's good practice for my real job (one of the things I do is recreate old jet tail flashes/designs and squadron patches)... so if no one ends up using any of this, I won't mind.

Don't know if I have any of my squadron patches--if so I'll scan and send. 99th BW, 348th BSq, 99th ARS. the ARS KC-135s had a lightning bolt with "Ramrod" on the side on the fuselage--had to take it off during SEA.

Worked on all the letters. Tried to angle off the corners that looked like were angled, but it's very hard to tell from that one image... so it's probably still wrong in some way or another. Created the notch in the R as best as I could, trying to keep the same angles in respect. Also went over and fixed the A to better mimic the legs of the R, along with the "window" from the R.



Does the middle arm of the E look like it's longer than the top and bottom? I know they're the exact same length, it just... looks weird. Stupid optical illusions.

Could you make a MERA fender decal design using the font of the Mera rear decklid letters in Rodney's picture? This would make the Mera smaller in relation to the Pegasus.
