When tasked with designing a 3d printable vets pin, My first attempts were less than optimal, I started off experimenting with various shapes like stars, rectangles, and triangles, however none were suitable, getting a good design that's inclusive of all branches while being appealing to seniors AND easily printable at scale were my major challenges, after some trial and error I came upon a simple yet fitting design, starting off with a rectangle I began experimenting with some sort of flag pattern, the idea of a wave like style to the flag inspired me to pursue a flag on a pole design, in the final product 2 U.S. flags crossed in an X shape, the white backdrop, blue stripes, and yellow colored stars pay tribute to past veterans who risked their lives serving for our country, and for those have moved on from service.
