Hi guys

Just interested if any of you clever folk could photoshop some white 1275gt style side graphics with the words mini special or mini 1380 instead of mini 1275 gt.



Thanks
Chris

thank you!

Not sure if it works or not really

[b_sdaddy]

I'm a graphic designer, and the problem is your arches. there's just too much white going on.

 

with blue arches, the stripes & roof would work really well together. The arches just over power the subtlety of the stripes.

 

2 white components work, 3 is overkill.

 

worth a try though.

I think you may have a point with that!, would you be able to photochop the arches painted blue if thats not too much hassle?

[Dusky]

I'd try the stripes , looks fine for me ^^

[HarrysMini]

Definitely would look better with body colour/black arches. The stripe looks great!

[b_sdaddy]

very quick fill of arches without highlight/shadows...

 

but you see that the stripes compliment the roof and are no longer overpowered by the arches.

 

white arches vs white stripes.?

[danm]

Why not continue the stripes, but inverted (blue) across and over the arches?

 

Or if I had it, I'd be tempted to mark out and half spray the arches with the body blue to make them look sleeker, so the white banding of the arches matched the stripes better.

Looks loads better with body coloured arches and the White decals

If you do go ahead with the stripes, then I can do them for you. What I mean is, that I can prepare the artwork (.eps) and all you have to do, is find a printer with vinyl cutting facilities. Obviously there's no charge my end!

Thanks.. I'm going to get the wheel arches painted for sure then make my mind up on the stripes, but i do think it looks good!

Ok.. the wheel arches have been painted blue and i have the decals on order!, will post up a picture when its done!

[CPC]

Alittlle progress with this and I think it works. I like the blue wheel arches


Now I messed up fitting the decal and have only done the drivers side so far and the rear wheel arch was only part painted at this time but should I keep the side decals?

[HarrysMini]

Looks awesome like that man.
