Meats Label

elton72.jpg

Hey guys, I figured it's time to tell you know...I married some guy named Elton...and we sell smoked meats for a living. Here's the sticker I designed to put on the meats after they've been vacuum sealed. Let me know what you think. I feel it's missing something....

It may look like I scanned in a wrinkled piece of paper...but that's actually on the sticker. It's meant to look like butcher paper.

is this for real?
i like the illustrations i just wish that the negative space in the cow made the pig and the chicken made the negative space in the pig. get it, i just wish there were no lines and it was all shapes.
ahhh, andalusia, it has been too long, i must go back again sometime.
and may i ask, how did you get this job?
also, i would watch the space between the L and the T in elton's
let me know if you need an alabama office to tackle these accounts here. (GKS (gold krush south))

maybe you should have blood spatter instead of just crinkled paper. i really don't know if i think there is anything missing or not, if i come up with something i will let you know. i would just say work on the way the animals shapes work with one another.

Yea...this IS for real. I know it's a random project, but it's really fun. Elton is a guy that my dad knows. I also have another project I'm working on where I'm designing BarBQ sauce labels (and picking out the bottles) for another friend of his. My dad is hookin' me UP! Plus, he (dad) is opening up a motel in Florida and he wants me to do the branding. I may have ColeSlow handle that one. :)

Blood spatter?? Ew. I don't think that would be very appetizing.

No, I'm not married. Sorry, part was a joke.

For some reason my pics don't show up in Explorer. Try Safari. But you can still "download them to disk" in Explorer. Just drag 'em to your desktop.
