Agree with this, remember to post some pics when you get them printed :). Do you mind me asking what you drew them up in (and is this the final design version) as I'm thinking of drawing up my own sticker design my self when I get the time!

Yeh I'll definitely post pics once they're printed...
I used Adobe Photoshop, I think the CS2 version is freeware now too so v easy to download.

Oh and yes these will be the final designs, probably a little bit of tinkering to get them spot on.

I'd have considered adopting a Warsop Marlin or Choice Praetorian style sticker with a Greek theme. Also, why the Lion instead of Hercules himself?

Its supposed to symbolise the nemean lion, which I preferred for Hercules. That's all. And I did consider the marlin style but was a bit more difficult to design with my limited skills!!  :D

If you are open for discussing names, then I think you should call one of them "strikes".

Then you can say "I am just getting my Empire Strikes Bat".  :D

You'd have to be careful on the choice of colours though!

Well, he already has red.

I'm surprised nobody has made the comment about being in competition with "Jedi" cricket.

Hope you don't consider this me nicking your thread or anything mate but would you care to give to give me your opinion on my neatly draw up stickers (these will be the actual print version) so far :). Think I posted my paint draft of these somewhere on the forum a while back but am still undecided on the back stickers design if anyone has any ideas! :

(The red box is an A4 sheet so you can judge scale)



If I ever did get quite a few sets done up it would be nice to have the grey and orange areas matte with the black glossy but for now I'll just get them printed somewhere local in all gloss.

The stickers look quality.. Not sure on the blue and blue together but perhaps they'll be more distinct in print

I know someone who was thinking of naming a bat "rebellion".

Looks good mate. Maybe have the fonts in capitals though. Think it would stand out better.
