Vehicle Wrap Color Change
A complete vinyl color change on a vehicle is a great way to change things up without the huge expense of repainting. There are so many color and texture options to choose from making your combinations almost endless! You can full wrap or just accent your vehicle with a huge assortment of colors, metallics, matte, carbon fiber, even chrome! This wrap began as a red ford fusion sport. The materials chosen were the Avery SW 900 Supreme Cast Garnet Matte Red and Carbon Fiber as accents. Once again great job to Rad and Greg! – Steve
Main signs finished at last
One of the first pieces we designed and routed for Scallywag Bay Adventure Park was in fact among the last to be finished. I designed the hull shape for the small ship and posted it back in May of 2014. Here’s the two step by step entries of that process… Entry one Entry two The sign was designed as always by hand and with the computer to create the vectors.
Hells Gate revisited
Almost ten years ago we built a new proscenium for the Hells Gate Airtram attraction. The airtram is situated in a spectacular river canyon and features a 500 foot drop from the highway to the far side of the river. The canyon narrows to just over a hundred feet wide at that point and is well over a hundred feet deep. More than twice as much water flows through this narrow canyon than over Niagara Falls.
At The Movies.
A while back, I remembered seeing a Han Solo in carbonite sculpture that caught my eye. It was made by a well known sign shop on the east coast and all I could think to myself was ” I could do that!”. Well, months went by, and I still never had the time to mess around with it.
Cultus Lake Adventure Park finished!
The Cultus Lake Adventure Park project is now wrapped up and operational. After so many months of work on the project it is great to see the park in operation. The signs look great in their intended setting! The rides in this section of the park are much more extreme and the theme work is a little more sparse.
Denver Workshop coming fast!
We are now putting together the agenda for the three day Denver Workshop in mid-September where I will be presenting along with Jeff Harman and Thad Staples. We’ll be covering everything from basics through fully dimensional pieces. There will also be plenty of hands-on in the evenings including how we finish our pieces. It promises to be a great workshop.
Why not in the real world too!
In the last four days I’ve grabbed more than twelve hundred photographs of everything Disney. What I’ve seen is nothing short of breath taking. Such wonderful attention to detail and story telling at every turn.
