Chicago Pink Panther - SHYCAGO - 11-03-2008

ok guys i work as a graphic designer here downtown chicago and ive been working on this little design for fun for my 808 body. I created my vector image so it can be cut in vinyl and use airbrush for each layer of color this should look really sweet, just wanted to know what you guys think . I will post them as a work in progress , im very good with a airbrush and using the cut vinyl as a stencil will work perfect. i saw the pink panther a buggy before but i added a little chicago flavor to it plus this is all paint no sticker . tell me what you think i just wish i had a flat image of a body to better lay out but this will work.

yeah im going to post the process for those who may know someone who has a gerber vinyl cutting machine or had one because it makes the stencil process so much more fun ...... can wait looking for the right color paint as we speak.

what you use them for? not being nosey, but I would love to print a few things on a gerber. I would love to have one but they are alot of chedda.

well we use them for trade shows, stickers, metal signs, vehicle letters we have a few of them at my job the largest about six feet wide. yeah there expensive but very usefull. basically what ever you make in vector will be cut at different speeds and pressure depending on the material...
