Because the world needs more Torchwood branding in it...

[patelyne]

Sue's leaving for her trip to ComicCon tomorrow - buses take time you know. Even as she sits here judging my Ianto-ish love of labels, my (apparently) bizzare way of posting here, and my sharpie induced drunk-like haze last night I'm still pretty sure she likes how I improved her luggage. Torchwood NZ branding on one side and the T blown up on the other. Harkness on top, of course.







How to brand random objects and/or people who don't move quickly enough for Torchwood

Step One: Start with a clean surface. In this case it's Sue's new to her suitcase.



Step Two: Print out some handy dandy references from the internet, and type up whatever you can't find in Word. Fun fact? Torchwood branding font is basically Calibri made really really big. You can search through 5000 fonts like she did trying to find an exact one, or one with a fancy name, but really? You're going to end back with Calibri, your generic default friend. Slap some carbon paper to the back and tape it where you think you want it.



Step Three: Trace over the general outline with an embossing tool. Follow behind with a Sharpie (woohoo!! sharpie!!) Here it is part way done



TWNZ side done - note the nifty upside down T :D



After that I followed with HARKNESS on the top, and the other T took up most of the side. Way, way, way more Sharpie. Also, if you don't press hard enough with the carbon paper you will have to lean very very close when you start with the markers. This might possibly get you a little bit high on accident. Ooops. woohoo! sharpie!!





Last one is an "action-shot" with the Jack Coat

Oooooo Torchwood mints...Or are those mints Deb style? If you are trying to get me to retcon myself with the promise of minty fresh breath then Jeannie might pull ahead in the friend contest.

There should be no contest at all as I am fucking adorable. And your sidekick. YOUR FUCKING ADORABLE SIDEKICK.

There. I think I made my point.

And yet my glass, I mean mug continues to be empty of tea. Hmmmm....

Technically, I think YOU are the Teaboy in this relationship. My suitcase says "Harkness" - yours will say "Jones". (Just like our shirts.)

Should I wear my shirt and cry into the coat while you are gone then?

If you do, I want pics!

PS The coat in on my bed still if you feel the need - should I leave you a house key?

PSS I don't even write with this hand.
