Madness Posted December 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 problem? Quote Link to comment
Bob3 Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 I like it. I think you should add some more color, like maroon or red, just a little accent around the white stripes But . . . I'm no artist. I just think it would make it "pop" better. Quote Link to comment
503Alex Posted December 15, 2010 Report Share Posted December 15, 2010 I would move the email and phone # to the right a bit so they don't interfere with the shears. I like the fonts you chose though, looks good. Quote Link to comment
Madness Posted December 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2010 The bleed screws up placement of things, thats why the e mail is running into the shears. ill see what i can do though. now i just need to find a good company to print them. Quote Link to comment

Madness Posted December 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 My father collects antiques and brings a lot of random stuff home from auctions, garage sales, estate sales, ect. I went out behind our garage where a lot of the things get thrown that didn't make the cut. The shears were the most obscure, rustiest thing i could find with the most amount surface area. After i striped them i took an artsy picture on a pile of rusty junk. When i was looking for a picture for my cards that was the first one in the album named "a" Quote Link to comment
makya Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 I know this is going to make me sound like a dick, but there isn't enough emphasis on the striping, IMO. It's a card I would toss, since it is an artists' craft (pinstriping), and anymore, sepia-toned rustic pictures scream "stock photo" to me. the inside of a headlight bezel, HEAVILY 'striped would be awesome. or just a picture of anything you've done that is intricate, to show off your skill. remember, you are showing off your ability to do intricate line work, and people need to see it.

Radim Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 Looks awesome, but i agree you could have used a little splash of color . Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 Wat? I see ivory and cream, saffron, umber and bronze, rufous rust and reds, ebony and silver. Lots of color. Quote Link to comment
Radim Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 Those are all a variety of Red. I meant on the pin striping itself, maybe some yellow or something to make the design on it pop. Looks great though, i'd save it in my business card folder. Quote Link to comment
