you a better understanding of designing your board and things
to consider.

Example

general features with the main board, and the SHOW and
GO features with a smaller complementary board. This is

Example
52 - One of a series of showboards used
by a custom car designer. This 1970 Chevelle display
board emphasizes the cars features, while promoting the
custom car building company. Provided with each car they
do.
|
|
Example
39 - Keeping your showboard simple, can have
a dramatic effect. The complementary colored background,
and the checkered boarder make this eye catching weather
its next to this 1932 Ford Coupe, or just on a wall.
We look for the subtle details such as the check on the
firewall and incorporate it into the design.
|
Examples 88
- 1923
Ford Flat T Roadster & 89- 1958 Corvette Coupe Roadster
- Some designs look better when they are done in a landscape
format. For these vehicles, since they sit low to the
ground the landscape is perfect. It can be displayed between
the front wheels and not block anything.
|
Example
50 - Often there is months and years of work that
goes into a car. Rather than just using a picture book,
this layout is like watching a filmstrip of the progress.
This shows the transformation of the 1933 Ford with
the OLD restoration pictures to the left, and NEW pictures
to the right.
