Hi Yanick,
Nice job! Does your wrap end at the front door edge or go all the way to the front of the vehicle. I guess the better way to ask the question is if this is a half or full wrap. I like the fade on the house... draws attention to what the companies services are!

very nice, did you have to mirror alk the writing on the house on the other side ?

John, it stops at the big yellow arc because the white of the van was more "blueish" than the vinyl so I cut along the thin black stroke. On passenger side, both glasses were covered. One completely by the graphic and the front one would only had a small part "uncovered" so I layed down the vinyl all over it and cut accordingly to let the white. With the gap, the difference in whites is very little.

Thanks for your comments

Lindy, usually I flip all lettering in images to get 'em readable but in this case, there was so much to flip I just decided it won't abstract to the main goal of the graphic (showing the "in-progress") so I went that way. I couldn't use the house if not mirrored because the fade from blueprint to 3D generated has the same angle than the arc and also because the main copy would had lost it's readability (yellow over white / light colored background). At 10 feet away, we can barely see that notifications / measures read in reverse. The customer is more focussing on overall impact than tinny details such this one. I told him why I couldn't do it and he figured out quickly.

If I have a picture of the hood of a big rig, it's easy just to flip the Kenworth nameplate but in this case, it wasn't possible. Image was supplied on a CD by a House Plan firm, flattened with transparency and fade so...

Thanks for comments

how did you do the beveling on the graphic?

concept · 08-13-2008, 02:33 AM

Everything was done on Photoshop. Bevels included.

Thanks all for your comments.
