I concur with Ken, an hf is probably what would work best. here's the
results I came up with.

The code:

height_field {
    png "badge2.png"
    smooth
    pigment { color rgb <0.906,0.737,0.282> }
    translate <-.5, -.5, -.5>
    scale <17, 1, 17>
    clipped_by {
                box {
                     <-10,0.1,-10>
                     <10,5,10>
                }
    }
  }
