Design a BRL-CAD Sticker #8BRL-CAD
Status: ClosedTime to complete: 72 hrs Mentors: SeanTags: design, 2D, 3D, sticker, artwork, concept, photoshop, gimp

This task involves designing a BRL-CAD sticker. Make it look good, something you'd be proud to give to all of your friends and family. Look over some great sticker designs before starting to work on this, including the other completed GCI sticker designs by others.

Simple is good.  Using our formal (the three circles) or informal (moose antlers) logo is great.  Please avoid any military theme (no tanks!), do not use our old eagle logo, but do put a dash in BRL-CAD.

There is no bound shape for the shape of the sticker.  It can be rectangular, circular, or even irregular shaped.  The only thing that matters is that it look really cool.

You may get some inspiration from our recent book:

Submit your artwork in any file format, but ideally with transparency settings so we can print them properly.  (png or psd work well).  Give your name so we can credit you if you like as well and join our brlcad-news mailing list to hear if we use your sticker design.

Sean on December 21 2013 10:22 UTCnot bad but

I think we already have one ore two design submissions that look very similar to this design.  They do say great minds think alike, so there's that.


As for the design itself, I see lots of wasted empty space (the background inside the circle).  The font on "BRL-CAD" seems a bit lacking, uninteresting, and the kerning around the hypen is too much.

I will do it again. Thanks!

Sean on December 23 2013 08:38 UTCgradients do not work

Gradients do not work for a sticker design.  They will not print well.  Without the gradient, there's not much left to your design, so back to the drawing board?  Again, see some of the closed GCI tasks and search the web for inspiration.
