Real Graphics

I've heard conversation coming out of animal pens that is more intelligent than what is going on in here.

The easiest way to find the correct values for colors would be looking for the manufacturers corporate design manuals imo. You can find them all over the internet. Other than just the plain CMYK (or if you have the access to a really high end printing environment Pantone) values, you can find some other fairly interesting stuff in these manuals. The colors in there will be also be the values they use for printing their OEM graphics.

Here's the manual for Husqvarna for instance. http://heroesridehuskys.com/2014CI/HQV_ ... R_2014.pdf

Thanks, I didn't know that existed. I'll have to try to find one for Yamaha :).

This one's work in process as my customer is still waiting on his final sponsor deals. So some logos might change here and there, but I thought this was still worth a share as I "finished" them a few minutes ago. I really hope that I'll never have to make another kit on the new husky plastics as these are soo painful to design on. Still made sure to get that "Rape Yellow" color on point :lol:

Looks good lars. Only thing i would change would be the husky logos on the front fender, just to give them some breathing room.

Heres how these graphics came out. Love the design Aeffertz created. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to print hese for you!

I'm sure most graphic companies will work with you on that. It's not a problem for us. Just make sure to include the information when filling out the form.

Super clean! I've been using pretty much the same background to present graphics. :lol:

Thank you August! Always been a huge fan of your work! :D The creativity in most of your graphics designs is extremely tough to beat! :oops:

That background thing is also a funny coincidence haha :lol:

Thanks, I appreciate it man. I took a photo of the ground at the track trying to figure out the auto focus on my mom's camera and it just happens to work well for backgrounds. :lol:
