Graphics
I have been thinking of putting this image on the front of my (yet to be built) 21. Plus putting "Escape of the James Gang" on the back. What do you all think? Overboard? or this

I think the second one would be cool if you could get it to fit the rock guard.

I like the second one. I'd consider getting a spare tire cover with that graphic and not even put it on the gel coat. The text Escape will do for you under the back window for free and it would work good with the tire cover.

You can stretch it any way you want in PhotoShop. I'm sure you could just give the dimensions to the place making the decal.

I did not think of the tire cover. I like it. I always thought the people on this site were geniuses.

I like the personalization ... but for some odd reason I like the one without the color - not sure why.

Me too. The silhouette in just black. I don't care for multi-colored graphics on Escapes I guess. Monochrome - with black stripes and that black graphic, would look sharp. Or, whatever color you choose, with the graphic matching the stripes.

Whatever you choose, it is a great theme! So much to work with, you can't go wrong!

Great idea.
I like the sunset background, but I think it would look good only if you have a good way to handle the edges - that could be running it to the edge of the spare tie cover, or to the edge of the moulded recess on the front (without a front window), or the edge of the rock shield (with a front window). Just ending as a rectangle on the white trailer seems awkward.

Whichever you decide, is very much YOU! Be one-of-one, not one of many

You just fade to white - no edges. Another job for PhotoShop. I just bashed this out from a screen grab. If you're going to do this on the spare tire cover, you'll probably need an oval tire.

Yes, if done well. What was the conclusion about the correct colour... Krylon Fusion Dover White?

Or more Photoshop, to extend the colours.

I like the second one, too, but I think an oval might look better than the rectangle. Just my 2 cents...

I originally thought I'd like to have my Toad avatar staring out the back window at following drivers.
Then I priced it and picked up a couple cases of beer instead.

I had "Escape BlackJack" put on my Escape 21 (I did not have a window in front which is off center) as a play on the game "21" or blackjack. In addition BlackJack was a devoted lab which crossed the rainbow bridge 15 years ago. Escape has a local shop who made the graphics. Here is a picture of the saying on the front.
For Prairie Schooner I'm installing it on my front window guard on the 19.

Hi: cpaharley2008... Maybe you should have named her "Prairie Sooner" as you'll be there sooner or later!!! Alf

#1 is an easy one cut color cut-out that ETI's graphics supplier could easily make for you (in any color). #2 is obviously multi color, and could also be made but I suspect it would be much more expensive. Either can be manipulated in any size shape, color configuration you can think of.
Another thing you could do is to have #1 scaled down and made the same color of the trailer's graphics and inserted somewhere in the side stripes.
