HELP: w/ graphical advertisement for tattoo shop...

[BRR]

i met a guy about 3 years ago. i was in the Canadian Tire parking lot and i saw this wicked silver bus with some awesome airbrushing on it. underneath this bus was a lanky streak of piss named wayne. it turns out his brakes were fucked and we took him over to a buddy's place to use tools and get his shit fixed. he ened up staying for over a month. it turns out he had a tattoo shop right on his bus. he made alot of money here. and went on his way. touring across canada. but allways stopped in here for a visit for a few weeks every year.

long story short. he's in town for a decent amount of time now. we got him set up with a shop downtown. all legit. healthboard approved buisness.

what i need is some help with some advertisement. something for a normal 8.5x11 sheet of paper. for flyers and whatnot. also some buisness card sized stuff.

this is an example of what someone else tried to do for him..

so i told him it was crap and that i knew some ppl that could do a better job. he gave me what he had and wrote what he wanted added to it.


the way i would like to see it is this..

any help with ideas. font styles. wicked graphics... anything. will be much appreciated.

and remember its a tattoo shop so it's gotta look wicked cool.

thanks in advance for any help.

i dont have any digital pics on my pc. he's got some photo albums at the shop. but those would be more suitable for the website. when i start that.

im looking more for graphics.. font and design ideas for a flyer.

most importantly a professional/cool looking logo would be nice.

If he wasn't so busy I'd suggest Bossa... Maybe if you paid him?? He still needs to make my cartoon which is obviously more important though lol... if you have microsoft Publisher you can make postcards and all that stuff from a template but Bossa could make an actual logo...

[So Warped]

£24.99 and this design is yours thats about 49 of your canadian dollars, if he is interested I will do letter heads and flyers for £50.
Also I will throw in a badly drawn flash animation of a pirate and a gay wizard for nothing.

I guess he's not worried about Mike Myers and Dana Carvey putting the hit on him.

Drop the shadow crap or lighten it A LOT it makes it very hard to read.

I would suggest adding some tattoo samples that girls would find interesting as well. I wouldn't exclude 1/2 the market on my fliers. My first impressions.

thats really nice but its too much..

rule #1 never more than three fonts and you really dont even need three with such a short peice.

rule #2 pick one thing to capture attention.

Its pretty decent though for just pulling it out of your ass. :)

200 hundred copies is sick... people will get sick of looking at it!! haha.. well i guess if you live in a city...

After a few minutes of play on paint shop pro 8 with my limited knowledge...

i came up with some tweaks to the dragon logo

if he didn't make this though i'd be careful becuase people DO have their logo's copyrighted and can sue for using them.

I'd actually be wary about "Wayne's World", he could def get sued for that!!


Anyway I would suggest doing a simpler layout...
