Labels designed in Photoshop and printed on waterslide decal. I may sell some of these on my Etsy shop in a bit once I find a better supply of bottles.
My imagining of what the vehicle ID plate for a Spinner from Blade Runner might look like. Spinner logo created in Illustrator. Plate designed in Illustrator and printed on clear clear label sheet, then mounted on an aluminum plate. The ‘weathering’ was actually a printer glitch, but I liked it and left it as-is.
