    Nicely done, guys.

    Bob: That's a really nice font.

    John: The Time Tunnel? I certainly remember watching that as a kid.
    The Black&White top - I like it, but, the font that's in colour, takes it away from the rest of the drawing, in my opinion.
    What do you think?

    I probably agree with you Rik, the colours could be muted and still imply "bursting with taste" ... or summat like that

    Another one from me.

    That's actually a font called Modern King.

    The font is free, for personal use.

    I remember Frank's thread. Neat fun, Rik.

    I often draw out beer bottle labels for fun. This one I just finished up the other day that I had started a couple months ago. I had snapped some pictures of the label and used them but then found some flattened images of it as well and so used it to tidy up the drawing the other night.

    Unfortunately, the beer is long gone and I don't have a bottle cap. Looked for one on-line but didn't find it. So until I make it to the market to pick up a six-pack, the label will have to do...hope this is OK.

    That's a goo done, Roly.

    The text at the top looks a bit skewed, rather than going round a curve?
    Was that deliberate?

    Strange as it may sound, Mike, I too had been thinking about labels as well.
    You and anyone else are welcome to post their beer bottle labels here.
    Even though I started off with a bottle top!

    I have had a look on the net, but, cannot find a bottle top to go with that label.
    However, I did find something that might be to do with Hopvalley, and be a bottle top.

    Well, the good news is my wife brought home some beer (I cannot drive yet...). Bad news is she bought a different brand. Gotta get her to take me to the store!

    I recently installed a new drive (larger and faster) and all my other labels are on the former drive. If I can pull them off later I'll see about posting some.

    All wonderful designs.
    Here's my version. Not a real product, but there are boars head products from different companies I've discovered after creating this.
