Sol thewall Bamba Posted 18 June 2016 Posted 18 June 2016 Not enough gold on them imho. The back to the future one is tosh tbqfh. The idea is great but Marty just looks like a melted wax work of himself. Fair play for giving it a go. The Italian one is one of my favourites though Given that he's painted it himself, I reckon it looks awesome.

Fair play for giving it a go. That's solved that then, it won't be going anywhere near the kop.The idea behind it was, in bttf2 when Marty is in the square at the start, he sees the Cubs have won the World Series on the screen, a bloke behind him says 'yeah a 100-1 shot', Marty then goes on about how they played Miami in the final (in 1985 Miami didn't have a team) and the old boy says 'I wish I could go back and put some money on the Cubbies'. Hence Marty buys the almanac. The pedantics will notice the line was from the second film, the picture from the first. It started out similar to Danny's flag in stencil form, didn't work so went full colour. Hey ho, it was only a 3 quid flag so I've lost nothing. 2 from me then for the kop. ETA. A close up of the melted wax work lol

LCFC FOX 1884 Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 Going to get one of these made for next season. Any thoughts on which one would look best?

And the fact they take bloody hours on end to make, you should be proud mate! Just finished a hand painted one myself, will post a pic later.

VLC86 Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 Had a boring morning so thought i would knock this up, I need to edit the pics a bit better and wasn't too sure on the font so just cropped an existing picture.
lcfcolilcfc Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 Do you guys think this will make a good flag? thinking 3m x 1.5m!
Ian W LCFC Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 Do you guys think this will make a good flag? thinking 3m x 1.5m! andy king.jpg Like the idea, but might want to ask one of the lads on here to make the writing look a bit nicer.

Soup Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 That ' Back to the Future ' inspired one is the best idea for a flag in ages. Get it up!
promised land Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 That ' Back to the Future ' inspired one is the best idea for a flag in ages. Get it up! , where's that art critic who said it looked like a shite wax work now?Just been back to the palette for a dabble. From this.... To this.... Any better?
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 image.jpg Like this? Yeah spot on in my opinion! When photos like your original version get printed they don't come out very well, best to use big blocky shapes with a lot of contrast imo. image.jpg Like this? Yeah spot on in my opinion!

Is Ultrasshop the best place to get a flag like this printed?
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 Is Ultrasshop the best place to get a flag like this printed? Yes in my opinion. I've ordered 10 or so from there and the quality is spot on every time. No issues ordering from abroad, you can email them in English and they respond straight away. The price can't be beaten, the equivalent from Football Flags in the UK would be at least twice as expensive! And they're all B2 fire retardant and you get a certificate with the order.

Cheers pal, just ordered it.
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 6 more ordered this weekend, space will be at a premium
Soup Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 6 more ordered this weekend, space will be at a premium I might go down tomorrow then and get mine up first
Guest CityFan 06 Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 6 more ordered this weekend, space will be at a premium 6 ordered from yourself or collectively from others? I presume you want them in the current gaps at the back of the Kop?
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 I might go down tomorrow then and get mine up first Haha you've only just taken them down!
Soup Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 6 ordered from yourself or collectively from others? I presume you want them in the current gaps at the back of the Kop?All flags are down mate. They'll go up in a different order so we'll do our best to minimise any gaps.
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 6 ordered from yourself or collectively from others? I presume you want them in the current gaps at the back of the Kop? 6 flags for 5 different people. All the flags got taken down and will get re hung hopefully a bit more space efficiently before the start of the season!
Soup Posted 19 June 2016 Posted 19 June 2016 Haha you've only just taken them down! I miss Saturday morning flag duty. I can wait a few weeks I suppose
