gamer graffix as sideart
vidmouse:
I looked up Transformers "flypaper" and found what could
be good sideart on this theme.
Using the images and playing around w/ Paint.net I was
able to construct a fascimile. Unfortunately I don't have
any direct-on side shots of my cab yet and am not at
home to take one right now, but I included the Optimus Prime
flypaper image so you could see what it would look like from
the side.
For $14-20, is it worth it? I thought also that the flypaper
is removeable if I hate it.
For another $14-20 I might put the yellow Bumblebee on the
other side...
EDIT: was only $10 apiece at Walmart...
Heh... might have to have Scott make me a Transformers
marquee now... ;D

Check out my cab in the "project announcement" forum.
I used the Mario and Bowser.

Look towards the bottom of the page.
Mine have been on for about 2 1/2 months no with no problems.

Awesome! I really like how you integrated the painted
scene w/ the graffix art.
I could try something like that with Transformers but
that would probably mean I'd have to either draw
Cybertron, Metroplex, Autobot Headquarters, or
Megan Fox. ;D
Oh darn.

Thanks for the compliment...but I didn't do the art. My niece did that for me. I can't draw a stickman, muchless paint one.
The first time I saw the gamer graffix, I knew exactly what I was gonna try.
The transfromers would look great on the side of that cab.

I was thinking the Bowser and DK ones might be good, but all of the other characters are console-specific (why can't they just have a plain Mario). They look pretty nice and the price is defiintely right.
Vidmouse--why not do a simple grid behind the characters? You could probably Do it with a straight edge and a silver paint pen. Simple graphics are sometimes more effective. It's pretty much to scale in the Photoshopped pic. I can't believe the Transformers are 18x24.
EDIT-The graphics are on an 18x24 sheet. Bumblebee is still probably almost 18" tall I would think. Edited pic has been added.
