I have a dumb idea...

This is a Dinka Blista Compact featured in GTA. It’s very obviously modeled after a Honda CRX, a car which by now you should know I own.

See the white text on the side? I want to get vinyl cut like that text to put on my CRX.

Why? Because why the hell not?! It'd be fun. The problem is no one is as smart as I am so that vinyl doesn't exist, and I'm not really sure how to go about getting that design in a format for a vinyl cutter. So if any oppos good at graphic design are willing to waste some time creating the Dinka blista logos for me, I'd appreciate it. I'll help get some screenshots and send you an oppo sticker or something for your work

Ask the guys who make oppo stickers to cut the vinyl, they can do a good job.

also, here’s a low-res logo i found.

Oh so now designers are important.

I don’t know that I’d consider making a gag vinyl based off of a video game ‘important’.

He’s told me in the past that designers are useless and the world only needs engineers, but without designers we wouldnt have this sexiness:

Regardless, I realized it was a stupid fight that no one would win, If you look further down, I gave up. Ive had a long week, I shouldve had the foresight not to make that comment, I realized my mistake and moved on.

While I agree that the world does needs designers (otherwise I’d be out of a job), it also needs engineers, and they often have to work together to come to a final solution.

As for you; just ignore posts, and avoid antagonising a situation that wasn’t there to be begin with!

I agree we need both, my dad is a civil engineer and my brother is a mech engineering student. We all play our parts.

I usually just ignore stuff like that, but Ive had one hell of a week, that coupled with my tiredness (its 2am here) I lost my filter for a moment.

An example of my week: Thursday evening I had to drive from Boulder, CO to Denver, CO with my truck bed stuffed to the brim with my brothers crap (I couldnt see out the back) in the pouring rain at night (It was raining so hard, the highway was nearly flooded and I could barely see out my windshield.)

Better put some invariable valve timing on it as well.

I did a vector of the Blista font. It’s not perfect but should be pretty close. The Hyper Dynamic Sports text just became pixel mush in inkscape and I’m too lazy to figure it out.

Do you have e-mail where I can send you the SVG file?

Damn you, I just spent over an hour drawing the Blista logo!

You just really love to twist my words.

I didn’t say designers were useless, I just said that designers alone aren’t enough. My point was that an engineer is vital while a designer isn’t.

You can design a beautiful car but it doesn’t do any good if you can’t build it.

It's a stupid fight, you just don't like me and want to prove yourself by trying to make me seem like a complete asshole

Nice find! Where did you get that? A bigger image might help.

GTA wiki. As for getting better/bigger pictures, I have no idea.

E-mail sent! I used anonymous address so the mail might end up in your spam folder.

You need to use Gimp (probably works photoshop too) if you want to actually see the file as it’s all white on transparent background. Also, I just realized the drawing is very small but it needs to be resized anyways to fit properly where you want to put it on the CRX so it shouldn’t be a problem.
