Title: Artwork thoughts - my marquee
Post by: leapinlew on April 19, 2007, 10:04:35 pm
From my Project Announcement. I figure some of you arty types don't check there, so I posted it here as well.

Potential artwork - I'm looking for some feedback. The marquee is 16" x 2.5".

I usually prefer the more simple stated marquees, but this one seems a bit too simple for me. The problem is, since there is very little room on the marquee - I can't really think of what else to do. I could outline it or something - just unsure.

Fine as is or.... ?

Are you interested in putting some kind of logo on it?  Maybe if you sized the text down a bit you might have room for something else.  A Black Widow spider in place of the 'O', maybe?  Just a thought.

What is the color scheme of the cab going to be.  Paint?  Laminate?  T-molding?  A black trackball with a big red widow mark might look pretty cool.
