Default Sexy High Kick Brown Ale

Being a big fan of vintage pin-up art, classic airplane nose art, etc. and not such a big James Brown fan I though it prudent to create an alternative label for my brown ale. Well here it is... and if you don't get the james brown fan reference check out a label I just posted a couple of mins. ago.

I'm curious as to which one y'all prefer?



Schlante,
Phillip

I love it! I also want to use pin-ups on my labels. Very vintage and fun to look at!

Clean looking label, but can you really say that about the girl?

Thanks for the positive feedback. The only thing I wish was different is that the gradiant pinks/browns in the background were continued onto the left side. Otherwise I like. I imagine I'll have vintage/pinup art in atleast half of my designs. It just fits so well into bier culture. Also it's sexy and playful without being too trashy or overly sexy.

Schlante,
Phillip

If u spend the time in photoshop you can kill the background then recreate it and give it that old look. But I like it for the text..... keeps it easy to read... busy backgrounds of text can make it difficult to read.
