Falklands War 40th Anniversary Commemorative Clothing Launched

Falklands 40 Sea Harrier FRS1 black and white Varsity Jacket snippet

Falklands War 40th Anniversary Commemorative Clothing Launched

Its hard to believe that 40 years ago the Falklands War started following the invasion of two small islands by Argentinian Forces.

I was 14 years old at the time and my first thought was how did the Argentinians get to a Scottish Island with no-one seeing them coming?

In reality, I think a large part of the British public had a geography lesson after reaching for their world atlas to see exactly where the Falkland Islands were!

Which Aircraft Are Part of the Falklands War 40th Anniversary Range?

The Falklands War brought out the best in British Military resolve, ingenuity, bravery and courage. 

To commemorate the bravery of the aircrews involved in the conflict, I have created a 40th Anniversary Commemorative design featuring 4 aircraft types that were involved –

  • Sea Harrier FRS1
  • Harrier GR3
  • Vulcan B2
  • Victor K2

The full design features an outline of the Falkland Islands with the number 40 in red (red being symbolic of 40th anniversaries). Below the islands is a side profile of your chosen aircraft.

Which Garments Are Part of the Falklands War 40th Anniversary Range?

The 40th Anniversary Commemorative design is available on all of our standard garment items plus a new style backpack –

How do I Personalise This Design?

All 4 of the new Falkland’s War aircraft have been added to the veterans personalised range. Via these products you can create a truly personalised garment to commemorate your veterans service.

Examples of Personalised Commemorative Designs

SR-B Personalised 101 Sqn Lancaster V9 60

11 Sqn Personalised

619 Sqn Lancaster Personalised PG-G v7

What Other Commemorative Designs are Available?

Th Falklands War 40th Anniversary design is the latest in our commemorative clothing range. Other designs are available to commemorate –

Weathered and Flame Cut Effects

A weathered or flame cut effect is available for your data panels.

Around 60% of recent orders have featured one of these effects and they look great, so why not get your next data panel with one of these finishes?

Original loco flame cuts are usually prohibitively expensive, so these replica designs offer railway enthusiasts something similar for a fraction of the cost.

Big Loco Data Panel Update

Class 24 Later BR Green Data Panel Metal Sign

Big Loco Data Panel Update

I have undertaken a big update of the popular BR Tops Loco Data Panel designs.

Following requests and feedback from customers, I have reviewed the loco data panel designs. This review has seen the revision and updating of some designs, some new classes added and more liveries added.

The actual designs are tweaked to reflect actual photographic evidence of each loco and reflect individual details.

Data Panel Livery Revisions and Updates

The 1st batch of livery revisions focus on the BR Green colour schemes.

There are several versions of BR Green and they are applied differently to locos depending on their class.

BR Green

The BR green livery option now reflects the correct application of the livery on each class as shown in the products below.

The standard BR Blue diesel loco design is now joined by the AC Electric blue loco design and the Electric BR Blue with chrome numbers.

Depot Tweaks Added to Loco Data Panel Designs

Each depot had their own little unofficial tweaks which they applied to their locos in addition to the many varied official logos, plaques and motifs. I research these tweaks for each individual loco and apply them as appropriate for each order as shown below.

81007 Metal Sign

More Loco Classes Added

01001 BR Black Mouse Mat
01001 BR Black Mouse Mat
Class 14 D9516 BR Green

Weathered and Flame Cut Effects Refined

Another refinement is the weathering and flame cut effects applied to the data panels. Each effect is uniquely created and applied to each data panel order. No two effects will be the same, even if you order 2 of the same weathered loco!

45106 unofficial name weathered
45106 unofficial name weathered
Class 50 50012 with name LL weathered data panel metal sign

Nameplates as an Optional Extra

If a loco was fitted with a nameplate you can select to have your design incorporate the locos nameplate!

GDMK Images January 2022 Update

U2 Black Heather Varsity Jacket snippet

GDMK Images January 2022 Update

Hi everyone I hope you have recovered from any Christmas and new year excesses.

Here is a quick update on where we are in respect of new designs, supply issues and potential shows.

First off let’s deal with supply issues and get that topic out of the way.

Mug supply has settled down and once again we are able to get regular deliveries of standard size mugs.

Unfortunately, supply of the larger mighty Mug has been extremely frustrating to the point that I have temporarily withdrawn them from sale. Once I can get regular quality supplies of the large mugs, I will reactivate the option in the web shop.

Wallets and mousemats seem to be becoming more readily available as well.as coasters, although coasters are still proving to be somewhat erratic in availability.

Now onto something a bit more positive – new products and designs!

New Polo Shirts Colours

Following many requests we have added Military Green and Kelly Green polo shirts to the range. The Military Green coloured polo is perfect for our Military Vehicle range and many of our aircraft embroidered designs.

  • RAF 19 Sqn
  • 1980s West German Airforce Camo
  • Luftwaffe Grey
  • 892 Naval Air Squadron

Happy Christmas From GDMK Images

Happy Christmas Everyone

Unbelievably, thats almost another year done!

I would like to wish each and everyone of you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Your support through another difficult year is hugely appreciated.

The last of your orders have been posted and its time to look forward to a welcome break.

Here’s hoping you also have some time off to enjoy the seasonal merriments with your loved ones.

Christmas and New Year Plans

We have a quiet Christmas planned.

The online shop will remain open and we will continue to post any orders placed before the 24th, although there is virtually no chance of them arriving before Christmas due to the huge pressure the Royal Mail are under.

Orders placed from the 24th December onwards will be processed when production resumes on Monday 10th January 2022 when we will launch our New Years sale!

Over the holiday period I will be doing some website maintenance and upgrades that I have been putting off for a while.

Christmas Competitions

I will be running a couple of competitions in the period between Christmas and New Year – one will be open to everyone and one will be for active subscribers only.

If you still haven’t subscribed to the newsletter then subscribe now and dont miss out on all the goodies subscribers get!

I will also be doing another reviewers prize draw, so if you have made a purchase and not left a review then get to it – the last reviewers draw saw the winner get a sweatshirt with their chosen design embroidered on it!

New Designs

During the break I will also be adding more new embroidered designs.

The demand for new aircraft types and alternate squadron markings, particularly personalised tribute designs, has been huge and I feel extremely privileged to be able to help so many families commemorate their loved ones service.

These new aircraft types and squadron markings are available as options of the standard Classic Military Aircraft designs (albeit with different aircraft code identities to maintain the exclusivity of the design for the personalised order customers).

12 Sqn Lancaster

Personalised Railway Designs

I have also produced a large number of personalised railway designs including those below.

[ux_stack] [ux_image_box img=”77066″ image_width=”96″]

Class 55 D9009

[/ux_image_box] [ux_image_box img=”76725″]

Class 37 37250

[/ux_image_box] [/ux_stack]

New Standard Railway Designs

I haven’t been neglecting the railway side of things and have a number of new loco classes that will be appearing during the break.

The new embroidered railway designs will include –

  • Class 08
  • Class 20
  • Class 25
  • Class 31
  • Class 33
[ux_stack] [ux_image_box img=”77243″]

Class 31

Class 31 will be added in 4 colour schemes

[/ux_image_box] [ux_image_box img=”77227″ image_width=”83″]

Class 33

Class 33/0 and 33/1 designs in BR Blue and BR Green are ready for adding to the online shop

[/ux_image_box] [/ux_stack]

Happy Christmas

All that remains is for me to wish you all a fabulous Christmas and New Year. I will post some of our 2021 highlights on social media over the break. Please feel free to share any of your pics of us at shows or of bits and pieces you have purchased in the last year! 

Stay safe everyone and have a great Christmas!!

Gary & Dawn

GDMK Images Open Again After Short Break

31 Sqn tornado burgundy black Polo

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.
 
 
[ux_stack] [ux_image_box img=”76838″ link=”https://gdmkimages.co.uk/product-category/clothing/aviation-clothing/classic-military-aircraft/tornado-embroidered-clothing/”]

Tornado F3

1986-2011

[/ux_image_box] [/ux_stack]

Other Aircraft Changes

I have also added some new colour scheme and squadron options for some types following specific requests. New aircraft options –
  • F-15E 492 FS
  • F-15E 494 FS
  • F-100D
  • Mosquito TT35
  • Typhoon FGR4 29 Sqn
  • Tornado F3 56 Sqn display scheme
 
I have also modified the Sea Harrier to show Sea Harrier FA2 wording in readiness for the release of the Harrier GR1 and GR9.

Supply Chain Issues

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

GDMK Images Autumn 2021 Update

 
I hope you are well and enjoying the last few days of Summer!
 
Unfortunately, I start with some less than cheerful news.
 
I’m sure you have seen the various problems the national supply chain is experiencing at the moment.
 
We are starting to feel the effect now.
 
A small number of orders are affected, as promised delivery dates of certain blank items from our suppliers continue to slip. I am working closely with our blanks suppliers to ensure we keep stock available, but you may experience a slightly longer delay for your order.
 
I sincerely apologise for this inconvenience.

Show Updates

It has been a short, but very exciting show season for us, capped off with an epic BBMF Members Day show last weekend.
 
We have one last show for 2021 – the Firework Show at Lincs Aviation Heritage Centre, East Kirkby.
 
This has previously been a great event and will give you one last chance to pick up in person, a great Christmas gift for your nearest and dearest.

2 Week Closure

A quick heads up that we will be closed for 2 weeks starting on the 9th of October. We will be taking our first holiday in 5 years during the 1st week and doing an ‘end of season’ stock take when we get back.
 
We anticipate all existing orders will be posted before we close.
 
The website will remain active and take orders during the closure, but they won’t be processed until we re-open.
 
Thanks for reading and dont hesitate to give me a shout if you have any further questions.
 
Stay safe
Gary
