What's on the drawing board? 🎨🖌️

Oh yeah.... there's tons of room in this build

New Logo Im working on for Chicken Wing Audio. Im thinking he will be stamped on the corner of every pedal either by himself or with text. Im not an artist....

Nice!
The Deflector is one of my all-time favorites.

Funny- we both named our builds after moons.

@dawson - I love your deflector build. It inspired me to make one. This etch will always be my favourite of all etches I’ve seen on here.

Since it's spring break this week, I'm finishing up a handful of graphics for various builds I've been wanting to get done for the past few months. One thing I have that somehow never got built is a Fuzzdog Harmonic Energizer kit that I got 5 or 6 years ago. I had done up graphics in inkscape years ago, with plans of doing it as a decal, but the graphics were super messy and bad, so decided to use the little bit of photoshop skills I have from my digital art class this semester to recreate the graphics in a much improved way. Still have some tweaking to do, but here's a snapshot:

I'd label the knobs Don't, Touch, That and Dial

It’s supposed to be a chicken lmao I’m not an artist I tried my best

Oh no I might have to change it

It looks like someone was choking the chicken..

My brother said the same thing that’s it it has to change

I've been working on face plates since UV prints are killing my budget:



Really enjoy the Font Monkey fonts. They're free to use as well, so that rocks!

 

[steviejr92]

Ive been wanting to go that direction as well! I think that’ll look really good!

Neato! An artwork thread. My favorite part of pedal building. Can't believe I just found this thread.

I've been collecting and working with several "potential" bits of artwork for pedals for over 5 years and now here's a chance to show some of them before the pedals are actually built.

Im really digging the Model T one! Although all of them are awesome!

Do you have them made on metal/plastic locally?

I thought he was talking about PCB face plates. That would be awesome!

Testing them on PCB, waiting on the first prototypes now. I love me a finished enclosure, if I had scale then I would look at some sort of engraver to make my own, but I'm just a hobbyist.

The guy who just designed something for my open source project does his on PCB. But the ones he showed me were just basic silkscreen jobs, and JLCPCB does a pretty rudimentary job with that IME. The possibilities seem way cool though, for instance: https://hackaday.io/page/6556-pcb-art-with-oshpark-after-dark

Wow i didnt know you could get such color and clarity with this. That pharaoh looks insane! The pharaoh wasnt done with JLCPCB right?

EDIT: Duh its done by Oshpark lol

The after dark boards are beautiful, but pretty expensive.

Another option that seems to work well with JLCPCB is having exposed copper instead of silkscreen:
