Bat stickers
« on: September 08, 2012, 02:22:04 PM »

Hi Guys,
Having a go at designing my own bat stickers, as a little project, and just wanted some thoughts.



Just been playing around with different font types for the back of the bat, but the name and logo are pretty much set in stone

Cheers,
Adam

Personally I wouldn't buy a bat with those stickers on. I think the design could work but is a little raw at the moment. Maybe see if you can smarten them up a little but still keep the theme? That's my thought anyway, can't make stickers to everyone taste though so not necessarily a bad thing.

Not my cup of tea but nor are some of the more custom bat stickers around that are popular. I agree with johners, clean it up a bit and make the main emblem more crisp. Not sure how the fading yellow will look on a bat

I actually think if you take the background out and just have the wrist it might look nice. think it will be too much with the black and yellow though

Look like something you find on t-shirts on a seaside resort. Not for me.

Cheers for the responses guys. I know they need a bit of sharpening and cleaning. If you take the backgroundaway, the logo doesn't really show up properly once it's stuck on the bat. It prints out a lot better than tge image i uploaded looks tbh.

If you had like say a v sort of shape behind it so it just overlaps the hand it would show up better? instead of a full block colour
