Re: European car of the year 1990 sticker

Post by russ92xmsed » Tue Jul 02, 2013 12:09 pm

Okay...this is my design for people to view and critique! :) I have guessed the proportions and sizes from Paul's pic on his landlords car, using the heater elements as a rough guide. So I make it out to be 19.3 x 6 cm in total.

So until I get a confirmed size of the original, this is the best I can do. ;)

Here is a sample pic......

The grey background represents the clear bits!


So far I have got a quote for 25 stickers printed as proper window self adhesive stickers on a clear vinyl background. Essentially what it should be!

So if people are interested I need to know numbers. At the moment I have a price of £30.66 for 25 stickers. Which makes it £1.22 each. But this is subject to change ect .
At the moment this is for non profit too.

So please add to the list of people and the amount you want below.

The illustration I have is actually the cover of a brochure Russ and your draft looks most promising. The price also seems very reasonable and please count me in for six! Well done for getting this off the ground. With regards, Matthew T.

Excellent. Thanks Matthew :) the price might change...but it gives you an idea of where it might be.

After further scrutiny Russ as you say the typeface for the main text is slightly different and the 'tennis racket' detail also simpler on your version. Is is possible you can just adapt my illustration as a template, or is it more complicated than that!! Regards, Matthew T.

Yes on further reflection, I think the Citroen font needs tweaking. It seems to have very subtle serifs.
The paddles also need a thick border. No problem to change however.



I'll add you...Edmundator...to the list. Thanks.
