Paddle Using Characters

Here is a paddle I made for my pledge son Gambit from Tau Phi Sigma Multi Cultural Fraternity, Inc.

First paddle I physically drew and painted an image on. I took the character Gambit from X-Men to symbolize his namee.

If you do not have any artistic ability you can always print out a picture and use transfer paper to imprint the picture on the paddle. Otherwise you can take it back to elementary school days where you shade the back of a picture with a pencil until its pretty much covered and then trace the picture so that it transfer on to the paddle or medium. (I drew the picture then did the old school shade the back and transfered the pic!!)

And to paint.. you either know how or you don't... LOL!

L Phi E

Here is a paddle that I made a friend who is in Lambda Phi Epsilon Fraternity, Inc. It uses their colors of Navy and White. It was my first time trying to incorporate a crest. What I did was print out their crest on to card stock and glued it onto the paddle. For the design I just used straight clean lines. To ensure that the crest would stay on, I sprayed mulitple layers of clear coat. I was very pleased with the results.

NUPE Paddle

This is a paddle I made for a friend who is a member of Kappa Alpha Psi. This is special because I was given permission to use their more elite letters of Phi Nu Pi. The colors are more sharp in person. Bright white and primary color red with a lacquer over. It did have red Kappa Alpha Psi in small letters on the Phi Nu Pi but they have come off. (Should have glued them on along with the sticky that they come with.) Kitty
