  1. Ag logo.

    The client requested a design that incorporated and Indian head, corn and a soy bean. This is what I came up with.
  2. Another mural in Wisconsin

    Finished this up this weekend. 4 guys, 3 day using Nova Color and Porter Paints. We couldn't ask for better weather or company.
  3. Anti graffiti coating for mural

    For brick or block we have had luck with Ronan Aquathane, however you have wait a week after the mural is finished before you can clear. Since we travel to do murals you can imagine how that might be an issue. So we have found another product that we are trying out now that can be applied the...
  4. Anti graffiti coating for mural

    We've always worried more about extending the longevity of a mural more so than protection from graffiti, perhaps that has to do with the area we live in, that being said come UV clears should provide some protection as long as you get to the graffiti quickly enough. This video of my dad may be...
  5. How long to design and setup to print?

    Wouldn't it be great if we lived in a world, where instead of complaining about how designers spend too much time on a design, people complained about how they don't spend enough time? A guy can dream can't he.

    Did anyone notice the jab at Adobe CC?:omg::Big Laugh
  7. 2013 International CorelDRAW Design Competition entries are in.

    Oh yeah, that and Iron Giant, Dave Smith, among a bunch of other stuff. Funny thing is though, I started on this before the new Bioshock came out. At the time I was thinking Venice, but after playing through it, I'm sure it influenced the final product. I think that's where the idea of having...

  9. Fitting text on wave shape? Joe Diaz if you're out there!

    After you have fitted your text to path, in your properties bar you will notice a drop down selection with an image of an ABC on an arch. There are a few more options that may be helpful there. Sometimes I have found using a combo of "fit text to path" and "envelope" or even the shape tool is...

  12. Walk-ins...

    We do walk-ins all the time, they just need to make an appointment after they "walk-in"

    :Big Laugh Awesome.
  14. classic car dealership and garage logo

    I'm not picking on you Marlene, I get where you are coming from... all in good fun. But now I'm curious, I wonder what makes the 2nd girl trashier? I'm not sure if it's the pose, because I've seen the same/similar poses if not worst on your more "classic" pinups. Her pants are smaller in the...
  15. classic car dealership and garage logo

    You know, if the client asked for that I would be offended just as much as when I'm asked to do a woman illustration in revealing cloths. Exhibit A: Yes this was an actual job.
  16. classic car dealership and garage logo

    Hey now, how do you know. She could be a very nice girl. :wink: I like the first one too. I've always liked the classic pinup style best. That is why when they said do what you want, I came up with that. The second attempt was based off their direction. So don't blame me ladies. LOL.
  17. classic car dealership and garage logo

    They didn't care for the other designs. One of those cases where you try to crawl inside a clients head and ask them all the right questions before doing the work. I had a heck of a time getting any input other than, "do your thing" which I did. Funny how they have something specific in mind...
  18. Kewanee Walldog Meet.

    In case you didn't here, there was yet another successful Walldog Meet last week in Kewanee, IL. I'll try to post some photos of the entire event, but until then here are some photos of our wall: http://diazsignart.com/cole-brothers-air-show-mural/
  19. classic car dealership and garage logo

    Oops didn't mean to post.
  20. classic car dealership and garage logo

    Yeah I had the headers down so low because it made more sense visually (from a graphic design standpoint that is), but I think you guys are right. Keeping in mind that the target audience for this is car lovers, that would probably stick out like a sore thumb to those people. Here are two more...
