Popular Post johnnmitchell Posted February 4, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Scott recently asked me if I would do the graphics layout for a new REV indoor he needed for demonstration this week. Being a good friend whom I have known for over 15 years I said yes. I was provided a photo of a falcons breast with the wings spread. Scott also provided me a sketch of how he wanted the falcon on the REV Indoor. So this creation is Scott's. I just brought it to life. I converted the photo from pixel (.jpeg) to Vector graphics. The interest was to show the breast and wings of the falcon on the REV Indoor. First I had to create the layout and proper dimensions for a REV Indoor, which I had never done before. The graphics were placed on the REV Indoor layout. Then the graphics where sent to the Gonzalez brother in Gandia, Spain where they were printed on Icarex Polyester. The printed material was sent to Revolution In San Diego where the REV Indoor was completed. This is the finished REV Indoor in photo as sent to me by Scott. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

makatakam Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Awesome. I think I know what it's for too, which makes it even more awesome. Probably to scare off pigeons and/or seagulls. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antman Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Really nice a great detailed sail that has the bird floting in the sky look Scott is an indoor master so if he is behind this I will be a true new life to the rev collection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnmitchell Posted February 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 Just wait and see what I am working on now. It will be a while if and when it is ever finished. My next one, which is for me, has been printed and is probably in sewing now. Since this time two more designs have gone into printing for some REV fliers whom I won't say who they are at this time. Another is being thought about. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnmitchell Posted March 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 My next one, which is for me, has been printed and is probably in sewing now. Since this time two more designs have gone into printing for some REV fliers whom I won't say who they are at this time. Another is being thought about. The next one and following designs were delayed due a unforeseen accident. They will be following later. However the Cat is out of the bag. The third design, this is for Ben, has been printed and appeared on Facebook today at: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=851938161489635&set=a.189482351068556.55037.100000203770190&type=1&theater I'll write up some information this in a separate thread here today.

johnnmitchell Posted April 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2014 I receive my new Tiger REV today. This is the one and only(hopefully) Tiger REV using one of my personal © photos. The resolution of that photo was rather low thus if printed as a photo on a full size REV 1.5 it would look very blurry and pixilated. This photo was taken by me at the zoo in Munich, Germany in 2005. I chose to convert the photo to vector graphics which gives it an applique effect. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
