Not sure this counts as latest purchase, but just look at that!

Pike and Mattoc greyscale murdered out decals printed and ready...

Quality is around 80% of what I would have wanted, but deffo good enough that I am slapping them on soon.

I've been wanting to start a thread about this for the longest time.

 

Teach people how to make their own decals. 

 

Not everyone is proficient in Adobe and not everyone has access to the software either.

But I've been toying with oldschool Freehand MX. The software may be over a decade old.

But its more than capable. Its also free and quick to download and much easier to learn. Especially for those with no prior design software experience.

 

I also want the thread to be a collection of resources for making bike related decals as well.

Vector logos, typefaces, high res png's with transparent backgrounds, etc.

A place to showcase work and talk about the processes involved regarding scaling before going to print. Especially wheel decals.

 

Anyhoo. When Myles swopped forks on his Reign. I threw this together in under 5 minutes using nothing but Freehand and stuff I got from Google.

haha, tbh, I would not put that lady on my bike, but deffo very entertaining!

 

I could not find the decals for either the Mattoc or Pike in usable format, so sat on illustrator, and with the forks and ruler next to me.

[nox1111]

Finished the decals on the Mattoc in lunch, the murdered out look is spot on!

(I cleaned the areas before application - yes the rest of the fork is dusty)
