Hi guys! Well we survived Frances but Ivan has decided that Florida is the place to go. This really blows! They will have a more accurate forecast once Ivan gets past Cuba but it isn't looking good. We had people waiting in lines for gas today and many gas stations are now out of gas.
They just seem to be coming ur way Lynn...think of it this way..after al the rain, aren't the skies all Blue and clear? Kinda nice to think you can actually start over! Im glad you peeps are safe...Keep us posted!

It looks like Ivan the Terrible might just give us a break and stay far enough out in the gulf to just give us tropical storm wind and rain. We're keeping our fingers crossed the path doesn't change between now and Tuesday.
Anyhow we get to go racing tomorrow, the weather is always real nice before the storm.
glad your alright-your body you posted in the custom paintjobs is real nice like charlie said those shadows are real nice i thought i still had my 3-D glasses on still

just thought i might ask here since there might be some professional graphics designers on this thread...
I would be really surprised if HPI used a font as is from a font factory. Typically, in a logo and particularly with a company of HPI's size the designer/artist will use a base font and alter it, not too mention there are literally thousands of fonts that may look similar but the metrics just slightly different. In addition, a font on windowz and the exact same font on a mac will align and kern differently (yes, the exact same font).
Basically I would doubt that you would be able to match exactly what HPI has logo wise but because there are literally hundreds of fonts that look similar you can match it close enough without it being really noticeable.
Hi again everyone! Phew, finally I've finished w/ my painting, Guernica.. It took me almost 2 weeks to get it done.
This painting was assigned to us by our color theory instructor. All we had to do was to apply all the color harmonies on this piece to portray the history of Guernica, etc.
So it was a group of 4, and the measurement of the piece was about 20" x 60". It was divided into 4 sections and each of us had to choose one and paint the entire section.
I painted the second section which was the horse. I'm not really a good painter, I've never painted before, this is my first painting class btw!
Do let me know what do you guys think!! Thanks a lot
LOL...girly..you had it easy....When i had Burner, we ALL had to do this project INDIVIDUALLY! You guys had it easy...my class were just guinea piges for teh animation program.
Looking good though! Is he still making you guys buy those paints from downtown LA?
