As race season is getting closer - I would love to make a few shirts for my family to wear in support of our friend and driver. I have spent months trying to get this to work - but ready to throw in the towel. If anyone would be kind enough to help me - It would be greatly appreciated!! Here is the photo that i have to work with. However, I just got word that he car number has changed to 62 this year - and I will need to figure out how to change it as well. I can show my efforts if anyone would like to see them - I just don't want anyone to think that i didn't try to get this done!! Thanks so much in advance!! Patty

Here is what my attempt looked like. The front of the car is messed up - the rest of it turned out pretty good ( I think - for a beginner that is).

I tried to include enough detail to make it identifiable. I also attempted to create a number 2 that is similar to the 6. I tried to keep in mind that you will be cutting this in vinyl and made it a one piece cut - except for the center of the number 6 which you will need to keep.

I hope this helps!

Can't wait to open this one up and look at the details. (It helps me keep learning.) It looks great!

I didn't use auto trace at all on this - I started first by creating the outline of the whole car and then just kept adding parts and combining, excluding, etc. until I got something that looked pretty good. It was a little bit of a challenge - I probably spent about 2 hours on it.
