so i'm thinking about making myself a saiga sticker for my truck. nothing too big.. kind of in the spirit of those ubiquitous oval stickers. i whipped up a few ideas, and wanted some input. which one do you like best... i think i set the poll up for multiple answers, so if you can't decide between two, you can pick both.

#2 and #6 look identical. Is the difference wheather the base of the triangle points out or not? I like #2 better because I think it would show up on my dark blue truck better. I like the cyrilic "SAIGA" better than the Izhmesh corporate script. All of 'em look cool.

the diff between 2 and 6 is the size ratio of the symbol to the text.

#4,6,7 particularly, but all kool.

I'll vote.... if you send me a sticker.






I'll take a #6. Seriously.

3 & 4

#6, But I'd like to see "fins" on that arrow not just a single fat fin

8 is great.

Great idea 44! and I like 4 & 3 in that order.
Will these be rub on's?
If so then definately 4

What r u guys, nuts?

Seven, all the way man.

they'll be cut vinyl. so the negative space is actually negative space.
here's what number 4 would look like in a few different colors on a red background
the top row has fletchings per scoutjoe's suggestion.




i like seven myself. i even cheated and voted in my own poll for it.

Hell...

I just copied the image, and I can print out my own... I got sticky paper... I can laminate and put glue on the back... good enough for me. LOL


I think they *ALL* are great!

What kind of cutter you running?
Do you run "flexi"?

CorelDraw ,CoCut and an old Roland Camm1.

whoohoo fletching was the word i was looking for!

the black on red with fletching that you have there is my favorite.....like the Izmash script better....makes it more cryptic...no one will know what the hell it is.....unless they are a fellow saiga-shooter!

Definately 4 and lose the fletchings...sorry Joe...lol

I have to say #4 with fletching.

I dun like you anymore

LOL!
Where have you ever seen a Saiga emblem with those on it?

Here...this is the closest thing i've seen to what you're talking about...

However if you look at the side of your gun the one 44 did witout the fletchings looks the most like that.
That's all I'm saying.

I want the second image Cobra posted above across my trucks rear window.

i'd suggest the logo from the box for a rear truck window.

Hey 44rdv4rk,
I have been talking with Cobra about doing up some t shirts for the forum.
any way I could talk you into sending me a copy of the saiga logo in an .eps format?

I'd like to incorporate the vector logo with with a cool looking saiga photo or something.

I have always liked the Rolland cutters. (they co$t allot!)
I got a 24" panther I use for ball team names and numbers ect.
I lack the patience to do the sign work.
I can never get the pathways on multicolor to cut right.
WAY more labor than anyone realizes after you figure in the weeding and masking ect.
and then people complain about the cost?
I'll stick with the shirts man!

( would you be willing to sub out some sign work for my shop? I don't get allot.)

anyhow, I'll be glad to buy a few when you get em done. #7 all the way!

Do I see a paraphernalia shop in Saiga-12.com's future?

I like the two-tone lettered #4 meself...

Here's one of my personal favorites that would be cool silk screened.

For personal use, this is probably o.k. to use, but it is copywrited...FYI
dunno if the copywrite applies over here?

Juggernaut, I convert autocad to .wmf vector files to feed our embroidery machine.

I've been meaning to ask: Where did you get the avatar? It's very weird... I like it.

Looks like an actual saiga (carcass) holding a Saiga.

sure thing, but it might cost ya a shirt which one did you want?


yeah, its good to be able to use non-perf'ed vinyl... when i said an old camm1 i meant old... i picked it up for 3k about 14 years ago. it still runs like a champ, but the control panel is dangling, and i've lost the top cover.


yeah, tell me about it.. especialy with internet 'fast sign' places driving prices down with 10 mexicans in a cave doing the weeding and taping. i just try to bear in mind what media i'm using when i do the designs, and not have too many tiny bits to weed.


I'd be glad to, if it's something i can do and shipping costs don't ruin the math.



buzzkill. i dunno if it applies here either... i guess if i do a run of these the izhmash script is out.


annnnyyyyywaaayyyyyy....

thanks everyone for the input and comments. i'm prob'ly going to thin the herd and tweak the remaining designs a bit, before moving forward.
Of course, if i do sell these here, i'll donate a percentage of the proceeds to this site.

Personally I would like a chrome die-cut of just the triangle and arrow about 3" tall. It would look awesome against black tinted glass.

Sort of like this:

it's kind of hard to photograph chrome, but, here's one on my guitar case.
it picked up a bit of the texture, but would be smooth on glass.

That's just what I had in mind. May I ask you where you acquired such a fine sticker? I will be forever in your debt.

i made it right after your previous post.

after i watch BSG, i'm going to try to put together a 'for sale' post in the marketplace with color options and such.

Cool let me know if you need any help 44. I like the chrome too BTW.

Wow. I'll find the ad and place my order.

My 'puter just shows numbered boxes but nothing so far as what they are supposed to be. Is my computer secretly ant-Saiga?

Our Original Poster split out a while back.
He took all his post and images with him.....
