Walleye Wagon Wrap

[FTG]

This wrap is for a tourism comitee that puts on a ton of fishing tournaments. Kind of hit a road block on it. I tried to make the river scene look somewhat painted/watercolored. Came up with a few different variations yet not close to being happy with it. Any suggestions?

Lose the photograph.

I like the first one but a vector fish and vector bobber combined with a photographic land mass just doesn't work.

 

[Richard G]

I like the first one. I would think about making the image less a photo image and more of a sketch maybe with more of your fish jumping in the lake. Just my thought.

 

[Craig Sjoquist]

likes the 1st one idea indeed

On the name plain will work & the fish may have Wally features but looks like a shark attack

First one looks great. Just have to PS or Ai the lake photo into more of a vector look to match the look of the fish.

 

[FTG]

The background actually is vector, but it does seem to look out of place with the other elements.

How bout a photo of a real walleye guy in his boat, landing a big wally? Just a thought?

Another thought for it....

First one. Lose the background entirely. Make the fish then the logo, large, like the fish is looking into it.
I don't like how the colors in the background do not "go" with the colors in the fish.
Love....Jill
Oops just saw RJ's...which is pretty nice.
PS
I'm not much of a fisherman...but walleyes (or any fish) don't bite the bobber, they go for the bait/lure etc.

That definitely helps out a ton. Thanks!

That definitely helps out a ton. Thanks!

you're welcome!!

Yeah, that RJ's is right on the money. He's turned the fish around so it's looking into the picture, rather than away and has made the name legible, all while getting rid of unnecessary fluff.

The fisherman in me says walleye fishing and bobbers don't go together. I dig the walleye vector though, they are toothy bastards, so it's fitting.

exactly, forget the background.

only change the effects on the wording. too hard to read when the wording is small, enlarged like this makes it easier but still can be reduced

 

[Marlene]

big fish good, background not so good. keep it simple, just big fish and big hook

Tremendously better. Lose the 1984 gradients on the lettering and call it done.

NO!!!!!!! Is the fish supposed to bite the bobber?

 

[formanek]

Less of an angry walleye would be much more in tune to the tourism. Looks too much like a horror flick.
