Default Graphics. When Baiken met Me

Hi all

I have always been a fan of graphics on cars, whether big or small. I relate to the individuality they can bring to a marque.

This is really thinking outside the box, and a million miles away from the rally swoosh's and alike.

I know this will not be every ones cup of tea, but it is different if nothing else.

Sticky Stuff (shy tot graphics) put this entire design package together starting initially from a 8x6 image of a small manga character called Baiken.

The work Sticky has put in over the last couple of weeks designing and re'desinging, checking colours and a lot more technical stuff that I cant pretend to know much about is simply awe inspiring

RR...

The doors are a full wrap, with the extra bits of rays on the front and back being added as seperate pieces. All printed on clear vinyl in a red tint, which turns orange when applied to the yellow.

The full colour image is an additional piece, printed onto white rather than clear to give it the extra impact needed.

Whole job was printed and fitted within a day, though the design took a few weeks to finalise. ('Cos Mick's a bit fussy )

Well I have to say yes from me Mick

This is the first time I have seen a full panel wrap on a Scoob... and to very good effect I'll add, and the subject matter makes it very individual as well as the colours complimenting the Yellow of the car.

One thing I will add is I feel you need to consider changing the colour of your alloys now... something lighter maybe like my colour
I think it will add to the design of the car... when completely Yellow the Black wheels work but now you have the sides stickered up I feel they need to be more visual.

Now come on Mick where's your Pig hiding to

Thanks all for your great responses

Si, The wheels are something I am putting some thought into, I have got those 18" rota's to go on but am playing with the idea of doing something with them to make them more stand out'ish

Thanks again for your comments guys

Don't mince your words, I can't cope with people who sit on the fence..



Si, I am struggling for a home for the piggies, but they will find a home some where, may just be more discreet

Now that is smart!

Just one small comment though - the bits along the bottom of the bumpers - the rays that go out towards the front bumper and up towards the bonnet seem to fade away, but the back bumper stickers just stop abruptly - looks slightly awkward IMO, would look better if it faded out.
