Greetings

I would just like to get some of your opinions on this LARGE decal I designed (Inspired by Brom) before I go and have it cut and pasted on the real car.



Oh, it would be plased on the passenger side as well....

Iv had the car for the last 3and a half years and always wanted to personalize it artistically with my own work. I just never thought of a simple Decal. I could have an image printed on vinyl but I wish to stick with a Black and white look.

I will, if all goes well, have more decals made for the hood and other parts around the car.

Mother naturally thinks its garish and my brother loves it. What do you think?

I like it a lot, but I think that her tongue should shoot forward more instead of just hang their like a limp weiner.

Hey Snake! I like it, heres my critique. Try to make the thing abit more dynamic, right now it is, but those weird lines around her body kind a ruin it, especially the tongue, try to make it like what Pixelsoldier said.
Make it simple too.

Here's my repaint, i made her breast bigger, her ass bigger and cleaned up those lines.

No no no. What you need to do is paint it a flat grey, paint the shark jaws on the sides, put your pilot name on the door, and kill symbols along the side. And make sure never to wash it to get that mad max kinda look to it.

It might also help keep traffic moving if you put some fake .50 cal machine gun barrels poking out from the hood.

paint some fake blood around the bumper might scares people even more.

I'd call the whole thing off.
Who the hell wants decals?

(Just my humble opinion)

I personally don't like the look of most decals... but I figured I'd offer my two cents on the hood design.

I think that a centered image rather than a mirrored one would look cooler... more along the lines of the firebird emblem. Or kinda like this one?

Clicky clicky

I feel like two gals on either side is a bit busy and repetitive?

But of those four, I prefer the bottom right.

Some hood ideas.
Dont know about the images in the center of the hood, I have a few more that are not simple one image mirrored... just an idea

It seems like a split decision so far including local friends. Its ether liked a lot or hated, nothing in the middle. And those who hate it cant tell me why, or just think I should leave the car alone. Well, I had this car for almost 4 years, I don’t want to get a new one so I think by adding some flare to what I have is kinda like getting something new.

I agree with the tongue thing but I like the lines. (Probably just have to see the original Brom image to see why) And I think she does need a little bust enhancement (although the Brom version was male)

Oh, It would be $120 for a pair, that’s why I’m kinda concerned about public opinion on this one.

Thanks so far for the imput

$120 a pair? Do you have any idea how many video games you could buy with that?

or how many books?
DVD's?
CD's?
art supplies?
tacos?

Where are your priorities?

To hell with the car. It is a mechanical device that will fail on you sooner or later. There are more important things to buy.

Like Toys !!!!!

Oh yeah... and I'd paint your car black and buy some new rims.

I think someone already suggested the rims though. The current ones have got to go.
