Vehicle Graphics – girl racer punto
Posted by David Rogers on 20 September 2006 at 19:34She loved dragons..they were everywhere, inside & out…she wanted more – I protested…personally I think they ruin it, but hey, ho – she had the money.
This is the end result. – I did this about 6 months ago – just never got round to getting a photo.
‘Flame’ detail dips down onto bodykit – just to be different.

Customer is always right with this stuff even if they want it wrapped fluorescent pink with flowers and bunny’s all over at least until you give them the bill or quote.
Not really my style with the dragons and the lights. Nice work though

Dave it must be the pic but I can’t work out the grey/silver above the flames and on the bonnet but like the flames and stripes, if thats what customer wants thats customer gets

It’s some weird circular dragon motif… need I say more. 🙄

Dave – vinyl fitting aside – the car looks like it’s had an accident with Halfords ……… and missed any good bits!!!!!! What an abortion on wheels, talk about overkill! 😮 The rear lights are hideous!!!!
But the vinyl fitting is spot on! If not to my taste, or yours! 😀

could say it wasn’t my taste either but the work is good and as I said customers choice, pity we all have customers with really bad taste,

Dave it would have looked better if the stripes had gone over the roof, looks a bit unfinished like that 😀

LOL, [see my comments about a certain Skyline…]
Yeh, I suggested it – but she wanted to spend her money on those flippin’ swirly dragons.
Went something like this….
"I’ll do it right over the roof for an extra £30…." "No, if you could just put another dragon on the bonnet…" 🙄

can’t see your logo anywhere on the car mate :lol1: don’t want to advertise eh 😉
Good job though. I must confess I hate doing this sort of stuff. Never really get paid enough for the time and stress involved 😕
cheers

….I even cropped the photos so you couldn’t see the name on the unit!!
The thing is my initial design was the ‘flames’ up the side & a single stripe front to back. Simple, fairly clean & would’ve looked OK. Then these dragons has to get stuck on and it just looked, well, less than impressive 🙄
Still, they paid with hard cash…… that’s why I may grumble about the look, but a job’s a job…I don’t have to drive it. :lol1:

Correct! we’ve all done jobs at times where you feel like cringing and don’t want to put your name on it. But you give the people what they want……… and no doubt she’ll think you’re a genius Dave!!!!!!! Just think, when she gets pregnant she’ll be back with her pushchair for ‘baby dragons’ 😀

I hate it when I get a phone call which goes something like this:
Do ye dae Dragons pal?
I’m Sorry?
Do ye dae Dragons like you see on the side of Motors ?
Oh you mean graphics on the side of cars?
Aye – how much is a dragon pal?
A "dragon Pal"? I’m sorry I don’t understand your question?
How much is a dragon for the sides of my motor?
Do you have any artwork?
….?
Do you have any artwork for the type of graphic you require?
I thought you would have that on your computer like?
and so on 🙄
(Sometimes I feel just like Basil Fawlty desperately trying to slap down any customers he feels aren’t worthy of staying in his hotel)
