Hi looking for some Mug artwork, the ones I have seen are a dirty oil can look
ie: Texaco/Shell/Valvoline.. I have searched and found a supplier but at a cost.
They want apx £55 wich isnt bad for about 50 styles but a lot of them are random
companies ive never heard of. anyone do these and got any contacts for the artwork..
TIA Alan

I know who you are referring to, which raises 2 questions.

1/ Shell etc, trademarks?
2/ If I was buying 50 designs for £55, I look at how long would it take me to make the designs, then work out what it would cost at my hourly rate, in this case a lot more than £55. How many sales I need to get my investment back, for £55 not many.

The guys that are selling these trademark and copyrighted images are in blatant infringement of the law that governs the UK. Personally I would steer well away from these type of templates and concentrate on being creative yourself and not copying/stealing designs (please do not take offence to that, it is not meant in a nasty way).

Paul, a member on this forum does sell some retro mug templates that might be a better way to go for you. I have tagged him as I am not sure on his exact website address

Actually, when a first saw these type of prints a good while ago, I thought I'd have a bash at making a WD-40 mug for my own use. I rattled off a quick design in Photoshop that looked ok. I then made the mistake of uploading the design to Redbubble where I sold only 2 or 3 before it was taken down for infringement. Lesson learned!

Not very accurate though, that's the first thing you loose on a can of WD40!

You're right there Gary! LOL!

The guy you need is Edu Bovoline on facebook, he is the guy responsible for the designs. and his facebook page is https://www.facebook.com/groups/EduBovo ... _tn__=kC-R
