Re: Another BTTF Pepsi Perfect Build Thread.
Yeah I was surprised as well, although its enough of a difference to notice compared to the screen used one.
Milling will begin next week and I'll get some test stickers done of the pepsi perfect logo. I'm looking forward to seeing the results!

Re: Another BTTF Pepsi Perfect Build Thread.
I had a go at correcting the distortion from the bottle in your logo. Let me know if you want the image removed.
The problem is the orginal looks to have been placed by hand so it has a few imperfections. The 'mandarin' font is Chancery Script.

Re: Another BTTF Pepsi Perfect Build Thread.
nitrox, Where did you get the screen used measurments? I have an old 3d model I made but just from dimension guessing.
I have the capability to 3d Print a model that I draw but I dont want to waste time printing non screen accurate measurements.

Re: Another BTTF Pepsi Perfect Build Thread.
I missed the second page of this thread where gary posted a trace of his bottle. I ended up drawing it in CAD as well and am in the process of 3d printing it as we "speak" I will post a picture in a few hours when the print is done.

Re: Another BTTF Pepsi Perfect Build Thread.
You are going to run into a slight wrinkle with printed labels for the Pepsi Perfect - literally.
The shape of the bottle and the location of the decal will cause the decal to compress at the bottom. On a printed label this will cause the vinyl to wrinkle up. When you first apply it, you can flatten it all out and it looks fine, but in a short while it will start to bubble/peel again where it should be compressed.
For the screen used bottles, they use cut vinyl and applied the three colors seperately. The silver backing was applied first and a "pie slice" was taken out of the bottom of the silver part so it would fit correctly without the wrinkly. The red and blue were then applied over the silver.
You can see the cut in the silver backing on my previously posted rubbing. Here is a pic of the production logo as well - look near the bottom.

Re: Another BTTF Pepsi Perfect Build Thread.
I would need detailed pictures of the top parts, I plan on doing that. I actually made a thread of my own so as not to clutter nitrox's build thread.
