I know I don't have much input value being new to the group, but this doesn't do much for me. I like it, but for a badass shirt I wish it could be more. I love the concept of extracting the outlines of the rig. I would like to see how you did it so I can develop some concepts and contribute. (do you have a link to a guide?)

I don't have the elite photoshop skills, but if someone is capable how about embossing the SDRCRC logo into a rock and having the crawler climb down the rock. I would think this should be possible with keeping it one color.

Right now it looks like a random vehicle floating on a different plane from the logo. One doesn't tie into the other.

The crawler has depth, but the logo is 2 dimensional. Thats my constuctive criticism, please don't take it as anything else.

cheese!, You go thru tires like I go thru rigs Can't we just pick one and stick to it? Let us know how you like em. At this point I really don't care which shirt design, Just pick one and get em on our backs.

Sooner we decide/agree....Sooner we get em Made and on our backs..

Also.. To all club guys that need weight for their rigs.. I have 1/8" sheets of lead in 2'x3' or so chunks. It cuts with houshold scissors or rose trimmers. You can cut it into whatever size or configuration that you want.

I slice it up for wheels and chassis weight.

If anyone wants some or is interested in some.. Let me know.. I have plenty. Its alot cheaper than than the tire store. $Free.99

I don't see the diffrerence. Looks funny to me, Kind of weird. Idea, How about you have the rig alone on the back near the shoulder area. As if it were crawling down from your neck and just have the SDRCRC logo on the front dead center. Try it.

how do you not see a difference charlie?

original:


updated:


also for stickers,
is the current logo something everyone wants?
i was playing around with fonts today at work and came up with some other stuff aswell



anyone have any preferences? i think we should use the current logo as the generic club sticker, but we need to find something different for the club members

Who has these stickers, that is on the top of this guys rig?? I'm still waiting to get my share. Or is everyone just going out having them made for themselves?? I think the guys name is vegaracer, not sure. Anyone have any info on who has these stickers?? It was cool to see them on their rigs, now maybe I can be cool too? or not!


fonts, fonts, fonts galore.... so many to choose from.

carver I see a difference, I like the idea you mentioned too.

It looks better when its solid over the font, but what happened to this one? http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii106/huffpie/Axial.jpg
This one is great! If the back left tire were solid over the font like you did with the new one it would look even better.
