    Neill,

    Looks good from here too.

    How did you get the 3d effect on the blocks – was it fret cut or did you put white vinyl lines on it?

    cheers

    Martin, the logo was supplied as a JPEG by the customer which I imported in to Omega, then traced it so it was a vector image.
    The cubes were then cut in the three colours & laid up on the bench before fitting to the van. The white of the van then comes through to make the lines.

    They look fantastic Neill, I like the layout alot, very professional look to them. Did you produce the layout yourself? I think black on white is crisp and clean.

    Great work

    Very nice and clean.

    I prefer the way you have laid out the back of the van to the sides. I think that the logo works well with text running underneath and the "catchphrase" on two lines at the side. Maybe would have been better on the sides.

    Criticism over, still a great job. Nice 1. 😉

    Simple and straightforward, yet it manages to be punchy too.
    Nice work.

    Morning people, thanks for the comments much appreciated.
    The layout was my choice, the customer left it to me, his brief was

    "I’m a builder, your the sign maker just make it look really good" – my sort of customer!!

    Kev the font used is Arial Black for the name and Arial for the Contractors
    I have pulled the letters in closer together as well.

    cheers

    he does exactly what it says on his tin !

    nice work, looks smart, most the builders i’ve ever been involved with, struggle to get past three lines of text, if i can work a curve into it i reckon i’m doing well, to get a logoon there is almost unimaginable !!

    that alone deserves praise !
