First paying job

I did a logo and 2 shirt design job for a houndsman forum recently . When they heard that I purchased a cutter they decided on window decals . These are 11'x2" and they turned out great . I just have to say Inkscape makes things pretty easy .

Then I decided that the beer fridge in the garage needed another tattoo ...soo

You are absolutely right . It's a 6footer ( looks good from 6' )lol . I digitized it from a lowrez horn button pic .. Next time I'll pick a better source or just do it up from scratch . I also need to figure out the application vs. Bubles process .

ive done plenty of things that require the 6' rule dont even worry... sometimes things like that can be corrected just by node editing either in inkscape or what ever cut software you are using. Fonts are tough to correct, id just find the font online and replicate it that way. looks good though  :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I questioned the owner about that myself . The play on words is deliberate . Hound pound / Hounds pounding down the trail on the scent of a cougar . I actually think that it is effective ..It made you pause and give it a second thought . After all that is what good advertising does ..makes people take a second out of their lives and pay attention to your "message" .

I had a teenager that LOVED to weed, until she moved downstate to go to school.

I cut, she would weed and tape..then I installed.

Yes, I was spoiled.......LOL
