Some VERY nice labels here.
Much better looking than my feeble efforts, but still fun to fiddle around with making them.


made this one for the lager we brewed on Australia Day:

And this one for a beer that somehow turned out really sour/tart:
(got help from a mate at work with this one)

The latest additions to the stables. These Im hoping to add as magnets under or above the taps. May also try some specific lables for bottles.. There are some awesome lables out there at the moment. I think I need to learn how to use illustrator..

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. :ph34r:

Just use the tutorials (Help > Tutorials) and then google anything that you don't know.
 
tried it.. maybe I just wasnt in the mood to sit and work it out...
 
ok knocked up a couple of labels for a Schwarzbier... haven't decided on the hop schedule... European... all Nobel Hops... 100% Hallertau

.... or American.... Chinook and Cascade

Thoughts??
 
It puts me in mind of bands who argue over cover art before they've written the songs.

yep fair enough... probably just go for the American one anyway... cause they're the hops i have in stock.

Here's one i did for a brew from last week

purple = chocolate

Hey argon,
They're looking really good. I dig that you've got design consistency and you're doing the multiple line work like the commercial labels.

Very nice.

Watch where you use that choc label argon. Cadbury owns the copywrite for purple. They will send the suits after you!!

Yep: www.theage.com.au/cadbury-loses-purple-case

I think Cadbury changed some of the fineprint on their advertising to suggest that the colour purple, in context with chocolate, blah blah blah, was Cadbury's signature. I could be wrong.

There's a similar thing with Kodak's yellow - although a guy named McAdam who work for/with Kodak developed that shade and so it was called McAdam's Yellow. Although, I'll be damned if I can google it: too much Rachel McAdams at the Kodak Theatre wearing yellow... :blink:
