I like to make my own morale gear and thought these would be a lot more fun than numbers or skulls.
So, do these qualify as weaponized memes?

Paint or decal? I have one I am trying to get down to mag size and having problems getting it done...
I am thinking, shrink the pic, then cut the outline out, but can't seem to get the detail into the cutout...

Laser etched.
I did the digital art in a vector format and sent that and mags to molonlabe.com for production.
The colorized Pepe started with the etched outline and was then painted by hand with a Sharpie used for the outline.
I've tried using a razor knife to cut masking templates but the results were shite so I went digital/laser.

Thanks.
I had a whole bunch of them done and provided the mags, so you'd need to contact molonlabe.com for standard qty pricing. Their standard pricing on in-house designs with them supplying the Pmag is $18.95.
Turn around was good, between a week and two on my custom stuff. Since they now have the designs above on file you can get them made without any design hassles or set-up fees. Just ask them about the meme mags.

Very pretty.

I had no idea anyone was doing anything like that.  Pretty neat.

Thank you for letting me (us) know about it.
