First Two (Four) Decals

Recommended Posts

Today my first vinyl cutter arrived at my doorstep, and boy was I excited.  I purchased the cutter, a Creation PCUT, from USCutter on eBay over a week ago, so I had plenty of time to order vinyl and plan out my first cuts.  After a few hours of setting it up and running test cuts (default PCUT rectangles), I made my first decals.  In order to show them more-clearly, I mounted each of the decals on my computer's side.

Take a look!  The first is a silhouette of a 1994 Toyota MR2 that I made.  The second is the logo I made for my a cappella group, Naturally Sharp.

Thanks everyone.

A few people on the MR2 boards were requesting a few specific designs, so I happily obliged.

A very quick vectorization of a boost symbol on the stock MR2 boost gauge:

A vectorization of the 91-95 MR2 logo and a little fun with Illustrator:

Its an even bigger rush when you step it up and cut bigger projects... I've just cut my First 24x24 decal.. It looks soooo sweeet! And the very first thought I had once cut, was. How kool would it be to own a 48" cutter... Oh yeah, its a adictive alright lol

Awesome! I did this SAME logo taken from the boost gauge of my '89/'90 Toyota Supra!

I love this logo, not sure why. Was one of the first things I vectorized.

Thanks.  It's so simple, but it's so intuitive of a design as well. ;D

Glad to see the MR2 decal worked out well for you.  :) :)

Dave

It certainly did.  Now I'm just waiting for a blank license plate and some red vinyl to finish everything off.
