Is it worth it to keep trying for a potential client?

For a $300 job? No.

Clients should be respectful of your time; especially when it's "free" time for an initial consultation or meeting. To me, it's a red flag when they can't show up or show initiative to reschedule within a proper amount of time.

Nice work!

Side note, every time I hear about an NFL player practicing with a high school team, this is all I can think of: http://www.hulu.com/watch/1603/saturday-night-live-snl-digital-short-united-way

Can't un-see.

That's my guess. I know NASCAR has regulations about number size. Probably no need to worry about that for a clay model :)

Well said! I might have to use this if I run into that situation again :)

I don't mind seeing the #3 on the track again, and I used to be a big Sr. fan. The only thing I would like to see Austin have his own style to the #3 and not Dale's. It's good to pay a bit of a tribute, but I think he could benefit from having his own identity on it as well.

For the most part, it looks good. The number just feels a bit awkward- seems like it could be larger, like the current car.

Totally agree.

Another thing they need to consider: recruits are just one small part of what their NASCAR sponsorships are doing. Let's talk about brand awareness, troop visits, and the entertainment value of bringing troops to races. It's a multi-dimensional deal, not just "here's $20 million; go recruit troops."

The Julius Report website had commented on this last year, and I thought the data was interesting. The article I linked details the first third of the 2011 season and the exposure Dale Jr. generated. The $20 million or so they spent on sponsorship was returned in exposure value through 12 races and I could assume that the end of the year saw them getting around $50-$60 million in exposure value.

So with that, would Congress rather spend $60 million to get the same message out, or save $40 million to put their name on a race car to get the same amount? I know I'm not pulling recruitment numbers here, but they have to get the word out somehow. What they do with the number of interested possible recruits is on them, I think.

Especially when the heading inclues the words "clean", "minimalistic" or "semantic". Makes me want to punch babies.

Upvoted for WhatFontIs.com, too. I don't even use WhatTheFont.com anymore.

That is- but fun to know!

Anyone else surprised that the infield grass doesn't look very well kept up?

That was the first thing that crossed my mind! I wonder how long it took to create the entire set.

In all fairness, if I want to let gravity do the work, I'll use my pour over.

Came here to essentially say that. It seems like we're all answering this question based on how we think now and not how an athlete who has dedicated literally every waking minute of their life to playing football and nothing else.

Not F1, but probably answers your question in general:

A few years ago in NASCAR, Tony Stewart wasn't feeling well during a race and well... had to change suits before he did his victory lane spiel (he won the race on top of all that).

I've been running for years and still have a small beer gut... it might be that I hang out with a group that drinks after we run.

I have an ankle one and love it.

If I'm designing a car wrap that's got multiple logos on it, rather than name each layer with the same name, I'll toss 'em in a folder and name that. Otherwise, no. Most of the time it's just me having to deal with my own crap lol

Also, in Photoshop, I've gotten into the habit of hitting the v key, then CTRL+Click on the item to get a popup list with potential layers its on.

I usually get by with a nice button-up shirt and jeans. For day races, I don't mind it because I'd rather not be getting sunburned all day. For night races, I wear a zip-up or something to wear for if it gets cooler out or not.

Bemuzed · 15 days

Yeah, that's about where I'm at. The left keeps going left, the right keeps going right, and I'm standing in the middle wondering who is still near me.

Love your work- I actually went out and got some grid sketch paper after seeing some of your work. Hoping I can be half as decent some day!
