Title: Daly 32 Ideas and Help for Matt Carter
Post by: SIGNGUY on March 28, 2013, 11:00:38 am
Matt asked me to post this for him:

sorry the image is pretty small,, can't get it any bigger.. Matt, can you resend me a larger file and I'll get it to fit better:


From Matt:

Guys,
I have been working on a Daily 32 ( General Vending Midget ) for a few months now and I need you guys thoughts on the lettering that I want to put on it.

That looks ok... although not sure how the orange paint of the machine will look with the orange of the decal...  It doesn't seem to "pop" out .
I like the blue on orange "ICE COLD" contrast.

maybe more of a white edge to the oranges to give it a break to the orange of the machine? Either way it's a nice looking decal.
Just my 2 cents.
That is a VERY cool looking machine.  I like how compact it is!

But General Vending should get with the times and change the name of this machine to "General Vending Little Person"  :laugh:

I would do white, off white or something very light to get the lettering to pop off the machine...
the white outlines, to me, doesn't help and looks like a decal... I would also completely
surround the oranges with leaves to get them to stand out!
Almost there though!

I like it.  Are you naming it after Harrison?

got to go with some kind of off white and maybe trim the edges with the orange,

I'd vote an off white/alabaster or even a little more yellowish with an orange pinstripe

Brian yes this is for Harrison - Its his machine.

I did add more of a outline of the decal. The sign I am going off of looks just like this logo.

More pictures to follow after I get more done.

Well I am finally done painting this machine. I did all of it in about 3 months. Thanks for everyone comments on the decals. I did make some changes but I wanted it to look like it did back in the day.  Hopefully I can finish before summer.

Thanks again
