Love that bat profile, stickers are nice too. Really like the shadowing on the 'R'

Cheers mate, the R is actually clear which is a nice touch. Originally it should have been white. But a nice accident I think.

just get a decent cam and any monkey can do it :D
-
Awesome stuff!! Looks really good; a big thumbs up!!

Simmy took those with a SLR camera so that's why there decent quality. He has his uses :p
-
6mega pixel 5 year old SLR :D

So are you guys looking to sell some of these in the future or are doing it for fun? Good luck either way though.
To me the stickers, finishing (seeing from a distance though) and even the profile look very very classy--- honest opinion.
-
Bit of both to be honest, more of a hobby but happy to custom make for anyone. Think the stickers need a few changes but overall happy.
-
Looks a lovely bat :) - Got your PM thanks for the quick reply - all sounds good mate :)
-
I think they look good but could be sharper - the curve of the 'R' for example.
I think it would be cool if the toe sticker read 'Made in Yorkshire'. Proper. ;)
-
like we said these are just sample stickers and they may be fine tuned/changed
-
They look very classy
-
Everyone's a critic Simone!!!
(Wait 'til you see the retro-baby's I'm working on! They'll roll back the years.)
Personally I think they are a good shape and a nice design - if only people appreciated how hard it is to get stickers designed and printed how you actually want them.
-
Love them a lot!
-
i personally thing the black carbon is a bit to plain and needs a better gradiant like the detail in the new saff stickers

Agreed, overall happy with the design but think it needs a few minor changes which will improve the overall quality.
I'm happy to listen to any suggestions.
-
Keep the outline shape and the 'Kelsall' where it is. Move the 'R' so that 'Kelsall' it is left-aligned. You could perhaps put a spokeshave graphic in the centre of the 'R' so there is some added depth?
-
They remind me of the instinct stickers...
They go well with the bats, nice a subtle

Much better, would look awesome with shadowing on the Kelsall and a different font on the rk
-

Well done simmy, little classier I think. Just need a few small changes and think that's the way to go :D
-

May have to employ you for some designing myself sim as these look good

Personally I much prefer the originals
-
really johnny?
we thought we would go down the classy route as the 1st ones seemed a little in your face. We will probably add some colour to the labels once the designs finished.
-
I said to si earlier that you see this design on loads of brands now, yeah it's simple, clean and oozes class but.... It's a bit common as well mate. Don't you want to stand out a bit, be different, Make a statement if you can??
-
From a distance Newbery, Blackcatesque?
-
Old salix, Woodstock, newbery, bit of the new SAF....
-
true but you havent seen the final design yet. Hopefull that should be uploaded by the end of the week.
-
I like both sets of stickers, good job

Which would you choose if you had the option?
-
i like the first ones more!
-
i like the first ones more!
i agree with peps
-
I like the RK on the label, but not sure about the custom and all the stars. Would look classy with just the stars somewhere on the label.
-
I personally prefer the first set, However I would like to see the back sticker transparent and only the R being visible
