  1. Local bar and grill logo

    Looks great. You might want to have the T and the S be the same height so its balanced, and make the space in the panel uniform. Right now to the right and left of your letters has too much space. Maybe a wider face is needed. And for the secondary copy, maybe something with even strokes as...
  2. Latest Batch of Truck Wrap Designs

    Thanks guys! I was dying to add some tribal stuff here, but couldn't pull it off :) I did get some hives adding a bitmap to the Town and Country wrap. Some scary stuff there. I initially did have a vector woodgrain pattern, but it wasn't realistic enough. Yes, we're definitely doing a lot of...
  3. Latest Batch of Truck Wrap Designs

    Been cranking away at wraps lately. Retro still remains popular, but we're also sneaking in some more corporate gigs. For each of these jobs, we first created the logo and brand first. Typically, we're hired to do both simultaneously. Some of these are obviously comps, some real with some...
  4. Our new sign - Thank you Chris @ AZPro Group (AZ Pro Signs)

    Saw it posted on Twitter -- looks awesome. So neat to see the vision of everything all coming together. When's the wrap getting done? Chris at AZPro - awesome job.
  5. Design before Contract

    Ask an architect to submit plans before being awarded a job. Why is your profession any different?
  6. Does this work?

    This works very well.
  7. Logo design - before and after

    I meant for McDaniels-- looks much better tight for primary copy. FOr secondary copy, I frequently have more than a trucks' width there - you wouldn't have to look far! :)
  8. Logo design - before and after

    Hahah. I don't post too much anymore. Tough crowd! hahah..... By the way, you could drive a truck through that kerning hahahah.... (I've been saving that one for ages lol)
  9. Logo design - before and after

    Todd, the bursts - as a background element it has its place - but primarily they work to support an overall theme (typically retro in the instances we've used them). I think from a brand perspective, though, you want to approach it from the perspective of building a unique identifiable element...
  10. What do you charge?

    Invest an equal amount of time into learning how to design an effective wrap as you do into learning how to install one, and you should do very well.
  11. Logo design - before and after

    Hi Todd- Does the jingle say and spell 'a - n - d'? Otherwise not sure why you wouldn't use an ampersand there. I'm confused by what you meant about it being used in a jingle- Only other comment is I'm not sure what the sun and rays have to do with a kitchen and bath company. It's a huge...
  12. Something has changed

    Wow, well that's an awfully nice thing to say. I must say that comments like that do mean a lot. I tend to find the overwhelming negativity and hostility that seems to pervade most posts a bit disturbing, and sad on some level. And frankly, yeh, that has truly kept me off posts, and I'm not...
  13. Something has changed

    Can you elaborate on what you are referencing here? Sorry - did I miss something?
  14. Never done a wrap

    I get hives just thinking about what it takes to do a job like that. I don't know how you guys that do this all day - do it so well.
  15. Logo Pricing For Picky Customers

    Yeh Lance admitting to doping. Kind of like a news bulletin telling everyone the sky is blue and the sun is yellow, in case they hadn't heard. I had admired the guy for a time many years ago, but he made his own bed. I think it's sad what he tried to do to those who testified against him...
  16. Logo Pricing For Picky Customers

    Damn. I can picture that too. That would have been really cool to see. Speaking of Sabbath, any way to work in an Ozzy reference, too?
  17. Logo Pricing For Picky Customers

    Your contract should specify all the deliverables, hours budgeted for the project, and implications for going over the budgeted hours (hourly rates), who owns rejected art, etc. You should employ a logo creative brief document for her to fill out, and for you to go over subsequently to make sure...
  18. Latest Sprinter Wrap

    This looks really great, and clean. My only comment is I wonder for the average person if it's confusing with the lettering - I wasn't clear if that was the name of the company or more like that was a headline. Based on the web site on the rear, I'm thinking its not the name of the company, but...
  19. A employees Christmas present

    Nice work pal.
  20. goin to school for graphic design

    I think its a good move. I couldn't have arrived where I am today without my degree (Communications/Advertising). You have some other solid credentials already, coupled with some new insights, and you'll bring more to the table than most. Add in some marketing and advertising coursework. I...
