I dig 5, but would like to see the RC a little more in the tallest part of the state, about so Richmond is in the windshield. Also I'm thinking maybe a less specific vehicle perhaps, so it dosn't look like it's a Jeep thing.

Appreciate the feedback. Still trying to come up with something. Here is the latest. As requested, increased the size of VARCOR up top, moved the Jeep over and made it bigger. I also and added the TX back, not sure what else to put but the TX, too much empty space without it and it does symbolize RC instead of 1:1 at a glance without reading it. Some people asked for a little guy holding a TX, I don't have the skills to do that and I can't find any graphics so here is what I came up with. LMK.

I don't know if we can or not. I would think so with all those pissing Calvin images. I can try to find out for sure though.
I'll try to shoot Bill Watterson an email, he created Calvin and was also born in DC and is a patent attorney, which I work at a patent firm.

one with Calvin would rock.
if we do the treads can they match the tires on the rig?

The tracks would be cool if they matched the tires, and maybe wind down a little and look like a trail.

i like that one but the tire marks are different than the tires, so change the tires or marks and it would be sweet.

Here it is, this one might be the one. Not sure if the colors will be staying, black lettering will be just fine if no colors.

LMK.

Black letters or maybe just outlined. The end R in VARCOR looks a little ascew from the rest. Other than that it looks sweet!
Well maybe Calvin ought to be a bit bigger or the RC a bit smaller.
God I'm a picky bastard.

It looks like the guy is back further and the jeep is closer to us. PERFECT!

I'll fix it so that it's not like that, and see how it looks with black lettering.

Look at the spacing above the V and R it looks different.
Other then that it looks great!
