Welding Clipart. Which collection?

[Idea Design]

Anybody seen this guy before? I thought it would be an easy find-n-buy, but so far I'm coming up empty.

Thanks:signs101:

That guy is pretty basic.. Redraw?

So, for arguement's sake, does anyone know which collection it came from?

I redrew it, I'm just looking for the name of the collection.

Nice job on the logo.

You might want to do a search at Clipart.com to see if you can spot it. If you can then you can usually figure out which collection it came from. But with millions of images available in different collections, it's never easy to back track as to who the publisher is or which collection it is in.

Hmmm... very interesting post to run across this week.

Sorry to be a but...

I planned to post an exact same inquiry this week!
I also knew I'd get at least one "5 minute redraw" reply.

Anyway, I looked at Fred's site, and in my various collections already, and just now checked 10 pages at clipart.com

My welder image is a 5 minute redraw, but it's so ugly, I wonder if it is 4 generations of 5 minute redraws away from some original that may look a lot better:

I find that signs101 is a usefull place in that a lot of the people here have an eye for fonts and clipart and such. I'm amazed at the time it takes for replies, that's why I posted it here. I always try to post here last, after doing my own research.

I prefer Fred's sites first, then clipart.com, then Microsoft Office clipart pages, then Google search, and if nothing turns up, post to signs101 and see if anyone knows.

I've read enough newbie posts and the thrashings that follow to do a little research prior to asking.

And doug, I'm pretty sure I've seen that one somewhere; then again I've only looked at about 14,328 clipart images of welders today.

thanks.. I kept an eye out for yours when I checked clipart.com.. in case you hadn't done that first, and hadn't seen fred's suggestion yet. I got that image from a photograph of my clients truck... and I have to do 4 more trucks Saturday... so I'll trace that ambigous amoeba if I have to... even though it's crap for art

That's why you make the big bucks!

with a different guy, on a different day, I'd try to create more value & more benefit for both of us, by offering an upsell to better art...
...but this guy is a no-nonsense, gimmee-what-I-want kinda blue collar cat without a lot of marketing concerns. Not quite as big bucks.. but then a lot less selling time too!
