    Im getting paid next week, so I'm thinking about getting a ESP M-II Neck-Thru and sending it to Bill to get some graphics on it, so I was wondering what you guys recommend I should get on it? The Kirk Hammett Mummy or Dracula?

        I say, Dracula - the mummy is kinda common now. Just make sure you have good high quality pics of the Dracula they can work from.

          Can you get the Dracula as accurate as the Mummy nowadays?

            I have the Dracula decal all done...it's pretty accurate from what I can tell.

              Keep with the retro horror theme and go with one of these:

              1. The Blob
              2. Creature From The Black Lagoon
              3. Alfred Hitchcock
              4. Norman Bates (my personal fav!)

              They would all look good in a black/white/gray paint scheme...

                Exactly what I was thinking. You gotta have the BATES MOTEL sign too. I'm already looking into it.

                  I agree with the few that said it. So something original. You'll enjoy it more in the long run.

                      The Dracula type isn't skewed like that, strngth. You can see how it is on the original poster if you track it down on the netz.

                                    I believe there will ultimately be 4. Two of each version.

                                      I'm not trying to start anything here but hey, no matter what, it's still cool as hell and I am definitely going to find a somebody that can do something like that for me with a different character.

                                        the best image would be one straight on of the body of the Dracula guitar. From the pic of KH I could argue that it is one size and not skewed. You have to take into account of the forearm contour and the angle that he is holding the guitar. Just my 2-cents

                                          I was thinking that too, but it is a pretty drastic change in size from "DRA" to "CULA"
                                          I guess I'll make it both ways, and see which looks best.

                                            That's just the perspective throwing you off. It looks that way due to the angle and the fact that the first letters are on a different visual plane due to the contour. You can see how drastic it can look in your own photo of your mummy.

                                            Again, I have front photos of this guitar. Kirk didn't request that the logo be skewed in any way different than his original poster. A mockup was even provided with straight lettering. It was very important that it be faithful. I don't know what else to say...
