Get the Werx

The evolution of a companies identity. Here is something we will likely be pushing for the next year or 2. Even more so If next season we can offer replacement plastics and stands. Fingers crossed for the whole package deal.

And this is me working on expanded logo ideas. Nothing official for the logo yet.
The workmark however is going to stay the same.

F-150 Wheel Rim Decals

The customer Came in with this idea to put decals on his wheels
This is the graphic I came up with. He was very happy. Even came by to give us a chance to take this photo.
Thanks you Sir.

Printwerx custom KTM graphic


Here's for the boss's bike, Steve Taylor. He will be racing this weekend, so check it out if you are there.
This design reads a little more like a billboard than some others. Having details of the business written on the shrouds. It's a little easier to have a single business focus when that is the theme (Printwerx). also featured on the kit are BST Performance (Rear Fender) and FPS (forest Power Sports) (shrouds, Air-boxes, front fender) because they supplied the bike. With a little luck we will have some photos here next week.

MotoX Race Signs

Sure, these signs don't seem like much work, but you should have seen what they were using before.

Trailer Graphics

This trailer is mostly just a list of the sponsors, but we don't get a lot of trailers, so I think it is note worthy.
Steve did the install, I just did the design. See Steve installing below.






Boat Graphics Install

I didn't design this one, but I did do the install.
the first side with someone holding the extra length of the material. The other side I did all by my lonesome.
oddly I think that side went easier and better. maybe just because it had to. but now I know I can do it, so I'm happy.

Prince George Motocross Association Logo

The First Round.(Rejected). They wanted a rider they could recognize.
This logo features not only my illustration work, (*Big Smile*) but a few of the Adobe Illustrator tricks I picked up over the years. The logo uses a very simple font choice, Impact. I chose Impact because it has become the go-to font for doing names and numbers on motocross plates and graphics. Green, is because it's for Prince George, BC. And right now (motocross season) it is green as can be everywhere. Brown is for the dirt. Grey is neutral, in an area I do not want too much attention. And the red is for contrast, impact, and some racing classed have red numbers.

Second round - Pending. Rider Featured: Dale Voldeng #137
They went with the photo and a few more changes. See below.

The Final Selection

Wood-Grain on a Garage Door



This is a vector based wood-grain texture that I created. It looks a lot better than I expected.
It is applied to an aluminum Garage door section. It was a good trial. We need to get the solution that helps it stick in the corners, or a vinyl with a more aggressive glue than the one I tried out. Otherwise I feel it went well.
