I came up with this idea a long time ago. I wanted a badge of B-Hop looking forward and reaching across his body as if he were throwing a no-look pass to his side. I'd then wear a basketball pin somewhere near my hip detachted entirely from the badge.

When  marymouse opened up for badges for Furry Fiesta 2012, I told her my idea. She took the commission, then delighted me by adding a basketball so it would have the same look as the badge. And then she found a way to laminate the whole thing so that the basketball was separated from B-Hop, just as it is here!

It came out awesome, and I wore this all con. Thank you so much,  marymouse!!
