Koldnrg 9 Posted April 30, 2017 Picked up a mh-871 2 months ago. After doing a ton of reading online and playing with making a few smaller items I felt comfortable enough to make some decals for our farm and our neighbors farm. Just picked up a larger job from someone who saw my work on the neighbors rig so must not be too bad... Anyways let me know what you think. If I could change anything I would highlight the remainder of the text on the red truck in silver as well. But that is our truck so its good enough for now. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DNA_Vinyl 262 Posted May 1, 2017 Nice. I want to do a truck but...I don't advertise...ha! Welcome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Koldnrg 9 Posted May 8, 2017 Few from today, part of a large order I received. Still have a combine and 4 pickups to vinyl up. Turning out pretty good I think. For some reason on the black truck it looks like a white vinyl background buts its actually metallic silver. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah just started, layering vinyl is nerve racking, assembling it all before applying. Starting to wonder if layering it on site wouldn't work better. Then again if I mess one up at home I can just remake it. On site kinda screwed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The missing dot on the I is a good catch thanks. I'll have to fix that on my next trip to finish up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Out here in the middle of the country a lot of local US mail will not even have commas between city and state. Guess we are just ignorant hicks. Lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I have one right now that is insisting on using a very old piece of clipart and only reference is off of an old business card. I really don't like the design as it makes it look like my machine was messing up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildgoose 4,200 Posted May 11, 2017 Hicks? You mean there are hicks in OTHER states? Wow, I thought I was all alone. I guess I'm NOT special after all. Those look great and nice score on the job. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Customer was very excited about it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't advertise (yet) but 50% of my work is semis with the logo, dot and vin numbers. But my main job is in the oil field, so it's easy to get jobs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
