Custom Etching - Page 2

I think SnowMan can do it. I'll download and print you a couple copies of that Yoda
image with my plotter Monday. I can handle up to 22" wide with 1" margins X 50'.
I hope the image is big enough. If I have to re-size it, we'll get distortions. I could
convert it to a vector file. But it won't be easy. My time would be expensive. I don't
think many can afford it. I do know someone who can hand draw that as a stencil.
He probably would be alot cheaper than me. But it would probably take a few weeks.
He lives in France.

That is a very generous offer Slaymate

Me and Ranger have been chatting on PM's all afternoon, and I designed a little rough image for him that he liked. We have agreed on a price and I will post pics of it here. It is a really simple design. It is the star wars logo in big letters on top, and under that a profile shadow of two people having a lightsaber fight.

It's extremely rough but I only spent like 5 minutes on it. Of course I will clean it up before I start to etch it.

I left my artist a message. He may not check in for a few days. I'll get a price on that Yoda anyways :-)

Thanks for the support man. To be honest with you, you were one of my influences that made me want to try this from your silver surfer mod.

Sn0wMan · 29-October-06, 12:22 PM

Okay Ranger, here is a progress shot of your etch. What do you think so far?

Lokie · 29-October-06, 12:25 PM

That is looking awesome so far you are doing a great job on it Sn0wMan.

Okay, I got it finished in just under 2 hours. Hope you like it! My father in law is a big star wars fan too, and he almost fell out of his chair when he seen it!
