Default Sig Request

I got myself a new car and would love if one of you skilled members could take a shot at making me a new signature. I've been hesitant to have a new one made as Xeno did an awesome job on the one you see below. I wrote some guidelines so you guys have a good idea for what I want and don't waste your time.

Guidelines:

  • I'd like the "style" to be be the same as my current sig. As in, the photo of the car more or less looks like a painting. Not sure what that's called as I'm pretty ignorant as far as this type of stuff goes.
  • Should contain only 1 photo of each of the cars. Below are photos to be used.
The '83















The Three 7

















  • I want the signature to have some what of a black and white theme to play off the fact that one car is black and the other is white.
  • Include a Yin & Yang symbol or a ying/yang general theme.


  • Incorporate one of the following Grateful Dead symbol to add a little color. They should be on the smaller side. The first one would be great in the top left corner.



  • Again to add a little color, this SF Giants logo would also be incorporated in a small section of the sig.



To whoever takes on the challenge and follows my **** directions, thanks so much. You have your work cut out for you as Xeno did an awesome job on my last one.

Brian

Don't know if I have the skills required, but lessee..

current sig style looks to be 'poster' 8 color filtered.. not a problem

the font is "Hendrix" which never got made into a full set, it looks to me like Xeno custom made your 8 and 3.. I have however found someone who completed the set out so the 83 looks different than what you have.

umm.. would you like fries with that?

wait here... I'll be bach!

or beethoven.. I'm not picky..

lol.. gotta love typos..

well...

I started out making the ying yang the center of attention and having the cars coming out of their respective ying or yang and there just wasn't a good way to put everything you wanted into the pic, and leave room for your name that is.. after spending most of the morning playing with this.. heres what I've got.. a couple options..
SF in the ying yang a couple different ways..
a "clutter-free" version
a non-dead logo center ying yang version...
a dancing skeleton version.. gotta love skeletons..

I tried to keep with the overall feel of your one you have now, which is kinda hard to do when you specify so much to be different, and the pics aren't the same..

but here we go Brian, I hope you like at least one of them..

Also, I don't know if its possible, but can you darken the tint of the '83 photo a little? The photo I took is not the best since it was a sunny day and therefore the color looks a little washed out. Thank you so much!
