GDMK Images Open Again After Short Break
Hi everyone, we are back open after a few days away in the NE of England and our end of season stock take.
We are feeling very refreshed and raring to go for the run up to Christmas!
We are working to get all orders placed prior to and during the break posted this week and hope to have them all in the post and to you by early next week at the latest.
Whilst away, I took the chance to implement some changes suggested by customers.
In this Update –
- Changes to Classic Military Aircraft Embroidered Designs
- New Aircraft Types and Squadron choices
- Supply Chain Issues
- Railway Designs
- Reviewers Prize Draw
Classic Military Aircraft Changes
I received a number of suggestions regarding the embroidered aircraft clothing designs. The most requested change was in regards to the Tornado designs where people commented on the dates and name being too generic.
In response, I have modified the designs into the separate types each with modified service dates for the respective type –
- Tornado GR1
- Tornado GR4
- Tornado F3
I have also modified the Sea Harrier to show Sea Harrier FA2 wording in readiness for the release of the Harrier GR1 and GR9.
The Eurofighter Typhoon has also been modified to show Typhoon FGR4.

The national supply chain issues continue to affect our suppliers with the knock on effect of delaying some of our orders.
We continue to have a small float of popular blank products but are encountering more frequent episodes of being out of certain blanks.
Our suppliers lead times are frequently changing with no notice as they struggle with their own incoming orders.
I apologise again for the frustration and inconvenience this causes you.
Railway Designs
I haven’t made many changes to the Railway designs recently.
Currently in the works are the following loco embroidered designs –
- Class 20
- Class 25
- Class 31
- Class 33
This will fill a much requested gap in our library of embroidered railway designs.
Once these 4 designs are released, I will continue work on some of the larger types including Class 56, Class 58, Class 60 and Class 68 which are less frequently enquired about.
Together with our data panel designs and personalised side profile drawings (via our exclusive collaboration with Stuart Black), we have pretty much every railway angle covered!
Reviewers Prize Draw
Due to a much busier summer than anticipated, the reviewers prize draws slipped a bit. I will be running a reviewers prize draw later this week and picking out 2 winners, so make sure you have left a review for your purchases!
Thats all for now, thanks for reading and stay safe
As usual, feel free to get in touch with any suggestions or comments!
Cheers
Gary
