Top Secret Sauza Wrap

[D-Frag]

Whew, I can finally post this and get it all out. This was a custom job through the whole process. Custom photo shoot in house for all of the product shots, the pours, down to the macro lime shots. At least 40+ hours of design time. File size was upwards of 1.5gigs at one point. Glad to put this one to rest and makes for a great portfolio piece.

Couple side notes, the bodies are all custom and our template from the last race truck we did didn't have the foot steps in the body, so my logo bar on the bottom got chopped up, thankfully we printed that piece separately so they were just able to chop it up and slap it on as opposed to having one of the logos on the full wrap part and getting cut out for the foot hold.

And without further delay.....

wow, sweet work D-Frag! That's awesome!

[EveningLion]

wow.

thats all i have. thats impressive man.

[emucru]

I have a sudden urge to do some shots. Very Nice work! It will be sad to see it get muddied up.

Do you get to drive it??

[Exodus]

Sweet! Nice job D-Frag. I only ever get to do 18 wheelers, vans and certain cars.

I remember the dune buggey you did... I know it was a different ad but was it the same people?

[Virgo Nightingale]

Nice job, D! I suddenly feel like drinking a bunch of margaritas and then trying to race a truck...

[D-Frag]

thanks everyone, i don't get to drive it though, these trucks are VERY expensive, so no. we did 2 bodies for them though, so if one gets messed up in the race, they can change out the panels for the winning photo shoot afterwards ;)

exodus: not the same people as the dune buggy, I did that design at my old job actually.

[CkretAjint]

That is pretty freaking awesome!!!

[Exodus]

Cool. I didn't know since they were both for racing.

[Red Kittie Kat]

wow DF .. what a beautiful job ... really nice work :)

[D-Frag]

thanks, the funnest part about this product, was enjoying the actual product after the photo shoot ;)

here is a close up of the detail on the door, alot of work went into making the bottle transparent so you could see the background, and also making the tequila semi-transparent to reflect the background as well. along with alot of highlighting, burning and dodging!

[Red Kittie Kat]

I bet getting to have the product after was pretty sweet too :D

I can only imagine the hours you put into this DF .. its really awesome :)

[Typically]

wow that's sick man nice work! how many bottles of booze did you have to pour out to get the pouring shot?

[WannaBrie]

Excellente! Mas tequila por favor! Great job on that D-frag! How does Sauza compare with other tequilas? I can't drink it anymore, just makes me take my clothes off and do bizarre things like mooning cops and such.

[D-Frag]

typically, no tequila was harmed in the making of this photo shoot, we poured into cups and then refilled for more photos.

wannabrie, Sauza is a fantastic tequila fyi, I had to do quite a bit of research on this one before I started on it, so I ended up on there website reading about the processes and they are as extraordinary in comparison with other tequila's. tequila makes me do crazy things, ive had enough of those "crazy things" happen in rocky point mexico ;)

[Virgo Nightingale]

I had to do quite a bit of research on this one before I started on it
WOOT!! Researching tequila sounds like fun! ;)

so I ended up on there website reading about the processes and they are as extraordinary in comparison with other tequila's.
Oh, well that doesn't quite sound like the fun I was envisioning... :p

[Satchel]

That is very cool D... I would love to see this thing in person, I'm guessing the photos dont do it enough justice.

Nice work my friend!

[Kool]

That is awesome man, great job! http://koolsplace.com/images/koolsmiley.gif

[AlexNJ210]

[D-Frag]

Alex, as far as I know it will be on NBC, not sure what day or timeslot.

[AlexNJ210]

if you find out let us all know so we can look for your work on tv!!

[Cyan_Ide]

I absolutely love the layering of textures at the very front of the hood, with the plant, and the area right below the word 'tequila.'

Great job, D-Frag!

[MikeTheVike]

Thats awesome! I did a wrap recently, never got to see it when it was done, and don't know if I ever will :(

[cj2a]

Nice! Great job!

[urstwile]

Crikey, that's some good stuff, D! :)

[teniworks]

that's a very sweet design! i'm really loving it. also, congrats on getting it on network tv

[Tea]

Nice work. Very nice work. You have reason to be proud!

[Neballer]

That's pretty damn sweet. D-Frag.
Do you get any type of technical draws, schematics, bar napkin drawings or 3D models of the truck before you start, or do you have to figure that out for yourself?

[fredrich]

Nice wrap. The tequila itself is good stuff too. ;)

[CkretAjint]

I really really like this... AWESOME job!!!!! :D

[G-Man79]

Awesome!

[D-Frag]

NBC will air the CORR Race scheduled for Sunday, October 28th 3-4pm EST.
