Calling all graphic gurus! I'm getting a new frame from Ken Mayes that's going to be ALL BLACK. I wanted to make my own stickers to throw on the frame....

The Bike is a Gladiator Cycles Argento....so I'm looking for something midieval....

Here's some stuff that I threw together:

I'd go for the second one for sure. Also, I don't know if you could pull this off, but some thin white pin striping, kind of like on a hotrod or a chopper would look sick on the toptube and down tube.

Oh, my bad, I thought you said design something. If you just want to type the name out in 100 different fonts, that's cool too.

no way man....anything goes! I'm not much of a graphic designer so that's all I did just to throw out some ideas.....

But yeah, I'm going to try to think of some other graphics to go along with the text....but I just need some ideas....

Gladiators predated the medieval era by at least 300 years.
Think ancient Roman.

I like the idea of pinstriping. If you got a pinstriper/sign letterer to do a custom script rendering of the company name, like first word above the other one, and put it on each side near the head tube and then some clean pinstriping back along the body of the frame, and then additional embellishments to the pinstripers taste.

That would be the person to ask for sure!

Yes that would be sweet.....I wonder how much that would cost though...

Hopefully you learned more then you did in spelling class. Just kidding!

Good start but be careful. It will quickly look like a k-mart special with all kinds of stickers and cross bones and skulls. How about something more tones down like a black frame and some dark gray flames or tribal art type of graphics.
