petroman2012 168 Posted July 6, 2013 Not trying to impress anyone, I was given this eagle that my Inlaw cut and gave me 15 yrs ago, it was raw and nothing had been done till Thursday, I gave a white primer and let dry, put another latex coat on it later...I hand designed the flag element and strips today.....NOT finished as I have to cut some wave strips for the lower section and come up with something for upper left where its blank...I welcome any ideas what I might put in that space short of crowding it... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petroman2012 168 Posted July 6, 2013 Thanks Fella's..I HAD tempted myself to be a radical about what I think about our present social-listic government but decided not as I am going to mount this above my garage doors to be seen from street soooo.....Don't want any Black lawn-mower powered helo's sputtering around watching me.......

WHIT72 36 Posted July 6, 2013 Very nice, I like the correlation between the eagle and the flag. Great job. Maybe you could put significant dates in US history on it, or fill the rest in with blue stars Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OWJones 1,981 Posted July 6, 2013 I would have done something like this: And then once I got it cut and tried to apply it, I'd be asking "Why the hell did I try and get fancy and not just do something smaller and more centrally located?"... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RickS 39 Posted July 6, 2013 I think OW nailed it, that is if you want to make use of all of the space available. It is graphically pleasing to the eye and fills all the space. I like it!. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OWJones 1,981 Posted July 7, 2013 Personally I like the look of Dakota's printed look better - the only thing I like about mine is that one of the stars randomly ended up about where the eagle's eye should be... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
