We have just added a silver colour scheme 56 Squadron F1 Lightning and a Shackleton MR2 to the embroidered clothing range.
The silver 56 Squadron Lightning complements the existing 5 Squadron and 11 Squadron Lightning F6 clothing designs.
The Shackleton MR2 is in the earlier white colour scheme and complements our Sea Grey Shackleton MR3 aircraft.
The Lightning F1A embroidery is based on the 56 Squadron Firebirds display aircraft that were based at RAF Wattisham in the early 1960s.
The F1A Lightning was a very early development of the aircraft type and featured only missiles with no gun. The focus at the time was rate of climb performance and high speed.
The new Shackleton embroidery is based on the MR2 version and is in a white colour scheme with dark grey upper bodyside.
The Shackleton MR2 development saw the aircraft fitted with an upgraded radar which was housed in a new radome behind the bomb bay doors.
The design depicts the dorsal gun turret. This turret was removed shortly after entering service but I have modelled it in place.
As with all our embroidered clothing, you can easily personalise these designs via the on screen product options.
Choose your own words above and/or below the embroidered aircraft to create a truly unique personalised garment.
Let me know what you think of these new embroidered aircraft!
Cheers for now

After a protracted design evolution, I have added the B-17G Flying Fortress to the Classic Military Aircraft range.
There are 2 versions of the B-17 to choose from
The B-17G was the final version of Flying Fortress which incorporated all the improvements from earlier models and boasted 13 guns for defence against fighters.
B-17s were used by the USAAF as a strategic daytime bomber to complement the night time RAF Bomber Command bombing raids.
The 94th Bomb Group were based at Rougham and the 100th Bomb Group at Thorpe Abbotts and were part of the 8th Air Force.
The 100th Bomb Group earned the nickname ‘The Bloody Hundredth’ after heavy losses during several missions over Germany.
The B-17G is available on the full range of clothing, hats and bags, a selection of which are shown below.
The B-17 design is part of our extremely popular personalised range where you can change the base aircraft design to a squadron with markings of your choice along with personalised wording above and/or below the design.
We continue to expand the aircraft and loco designs available.
Recently we have added the following new aircraft and squadron variations following customer requests –
Aircraft Types Coming Soon –
New loco classes in the works include –
You can see these designs at the following upcoming shows
Stay safe and enjoy the mini heatwave whilst it lasts !!

Hi everyone, welcome to the GDMK Images July 2022 news update!
There are a number of important things to bring you up to date with.
Earlier this year, we encountered intermittent problems with our T-Shirt printing equipment. The long and short of the situation is that, despite a lot of support from the supplier and manufacturer, the equipment is not economically viable to repair.
Unfortunately this means the following items are discontinued –
Earlier this year you may know we were advised by our blanks suppliers about supply chain delays. After a period of relative stability, our suppliers have advised us of more short notice delays to incoming blank products.
Particularly affected are certain colour combinations of Varsity Jackets and Hoodies. In some cases one particular group of colours wont be arriving into the UK until Jan 2023 if you can believe that!!!
As an example, a customer ordered a particular hoodie colour combination in October last year. We were advised of a delay, so the customer opted to change colour combination to avoid a delay. The batch of hoodies finally arrived at the end of May! The supply chain issues are still very real and affecting every aspect of our lives unfortunately.
Also affected to a lesser extent are mousemats, wallets and, in particular, certain iPhone and Samsung phone cases.
Please bear in mind we have access to many suppliers for all our products and we can usually source a blank from somewhere when our main suppliers are out of stock.
Please note, we will not sacrifice the quality of the products we supply. There are other suppliers that supply blanks which are not of the standard we usually supply – that is fine and there is nothing wrong with that – but having established a solid reputation for quality products, we wont sacrifice that by short cutting quality and using cheaper quality items.
Please accept our apologies in advance for these potential delays and inconvenience.
I have long wanted to offer laser etched products. I am delighted to announce a collaboration with JAM Arts who will be producing laser etched renditions of some of our iconic designs on a great range of new and novel gift products.
We trialled a small number of items at both East Kirkby and Cosford airshow. The products were exceptionally well received, witnessed by selling out within an hour of being put out on the stall!!
Needless to say, the success has encouraged us to add them as standard lines to the online shop over the coming weeks and months!
Keep an eye out for an upcoming post that will showcase the products and designs!
Following many requests and successful tests on the stall, we will shortly be adding embroidered t-shirts to our product lines. A nice lightweight alternative to our ever popular polos shirts, you will soon be able to get all your favourite designs on a t-shirt!
The brand we use has been tested for washability and shrink resistance and has received great feedback from customers who who have bought them from the stall.
Customers report the t-shirts was really well, keep their colour and no shrinking after multiple washes!
We have been really pleased to receive many, many requests for personalised clothing tributes from customers.
Many of these involve new World War 2 aircraft types and Squadron variations.
We add these aircraft and squadrons (albeit with different aircraft markings and codes to protect the uniqueness of the customers personalised designs) as options to the Classic Military Aircraft range.
Added recently, or to be added shortly are the following aircraft types and squadrons
Thanks for reading and dont hesitate to give me a shout if you have any questions about the topics discussed above.
We really appreciate your support so far in 2022.

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!
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.
[ux_stack] [ux_image_box img=”77726″]Just before Christmas we added 2 new USAF aircraft designs to the Classic Military Aircraft range – the iconic SR-71 Blackbird and U-2 Dragon Lady.
[ux_stack] [ux_image_box img=”77451″ link=”https://gdmkimages.co.uk/product-category/clothing/aviation-clothing/classic-military-aircraft/sr71-embroidered-clothing/”]On the run up to Christmas we received many persoanlised design requests for F4 Phantoms. I have now added these Phantom variations to the Classic Military Aircraft range which include
[ux_stack] [ux_image_box img=”77142″ link=”https://gdmkimages.co.uk/product-category/clothing/aviation-clothing/classic-military-aircraft/phantom-embroidered-clothing/”]
During the Christmas break, we finalised and added 3 new railway designs to the railway clothing range – the Class 25, Class 31 and Class 33 locomotives.
[ux_stack] [ux_image_box img=”77220″ image_width=”80″ link=”https://gdmkimages.co.uk/product-category/clothing/railway-clothing/class-25-embroidered-clothing/”]I have been refining the Loco Data panel liveries and adding more missing classes and liveries.
They are slowly being added to the site – check out the next blog post for full details!
That’s all for now, so stay safe and don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.

Following a number of personalised aircraft requests, I have added some new aircraft types and Squadron options to the Classic Military Aircraft clothing range. This update includes the first helicopter – the Apache AH1.
The latest aircraft types added are –
Just recently I have had some great personalised requests including –
In turn, these designs will be recoded with personalisation’s removed and added as Squadron options to these existing aircraft types.
I’m still breaking each aircraft type down into its own single product for each type of clothing. In the meantime, all of the new options can be ordered from the main Personalised Aircraft Clothing Section and selected as an option on the dropdown list.
There you can choose your aircraft type and Squadron and request any personalised wording or new Squadron options.

We’ve had numerous enquiries about stocking camo coloured garments as well as a Military Green coloured fleeces.
After some research and testing we have found some appropriate garments and added them to the range.
Made by the same manufacturer as our existing popular hoodies, these camo variants look and feel great.
Military Green Camo
Black and Grey Camo
They are available now as an option on all our embroidered designs.

We have had many enquiries for a Military Green fleece, and following the launch of the Desert Storm 30th Anniversary commemorartive range, we got a lot of requests for a Sand coloured Fleece to complement the designs.
We are really pleased to announce we have added these two colours to the range as well..
Although made by a different manufacturer to our existing popular fleeces, these two new fleece colours are virtually identical in spec and comfort.
They are available now as an option on all our embroidered designs.
Both these new garments are extremely comfortable to wear and get great feedback.
We get many requests for Bomber Jackets and Rugby Jerseys. We have sourced and tested several different types of these garments and have selected one of each type that embroiders and wears well.
We are making some up as stock for the Headcorn Airshow where you will be able to see the quality up close.
They will be available online in the coming weeks.
Let me know what you think of the new hoodies and fleeces and drop me a line if there is a garment type you think we should be stocking!

[divider align=”center” width=”150px”]I have started to add the aircraft types featured in our Desert Storm 30th Anniversary commemorative clothing range to the Classic Military Aircraft clothing range.
You now have the option to buy these iconic aircraft types as both a Desert Storm commemorative garment and a Classic Military Aircraft garment.
If you haven’t seen the CMA range, the design features the aircraft name and service dates. Check them out as there is in excess of 30 aircraft types now!
New Additions include the following types and squadron options –
I did several aircraft types that already existed in the Classic Military Aircraft range in Desert Storm colours for the Commemorative Range.
The following aircraft are now options in the CMA range –
Each aircraft type on the Classic Military Aircraft Range provides an option for you to request the design in new Squadron colours or markings for a small additional charge.
If you would like an aircraft type not currently available then use the products in the Personalised Aviation Clothing range. These product allow you to request new aircraft types and also the provide the facility to personalise your design.
I’m currently finishing off the Victor in Desert Storm colours and a 1960s Camo scheme.
Following these two designs I have the following to work through –
I’m also in the process of overhauling the way the CMA range is presented. Originally, all designs were available under a single product, with each aircraft as a drop-down option.
Following feedback, I am breaking each aircraft type down into separate products grouped together in their own Classic Military Aircraft Category.
This process will take a little while longer, so if you cant find a particular product under the aircraft type category, every aircraft type is available as a drop down option in the personalised aircraft range.
Thanks for reading and please let me know your thoughts on these aircraft clothing designs!
Stay safe
