Can anyone help me, I am trying to make a bottle of nuka cola from fallout 3. I have an 8 fl oz glass bottle of coca cola but I dont know how to make the label for it. I tried to print and glue a label on and it did not turn out so well.
Any advice or pointers would be very appreciated :D

Use one of those blue masking tapes around the bottle a few times, Then you draw the size of the labell on it and then cut the tape away. Then you cut the drawn label out from the tape, This will be your templet for the real label. You could scan it in the computer and then resize the Nuka label to fit.

Wow i never even thought of that....I know what im doing soon lol
 
If you could print it on a heat shrink material, you could then just hit it with a hair dryer and it would conform to the shape of the bottle.

I was thinking of that too, do you know of any heat shrink material that can be put through a regular printer? I only have limited resources sadly

I'm curious about this too, so gonna bring this back from the dead.
 
I haven't gotten very far on mine. i do know that the paint Coke uses is some really tough crap to get off there.
 
I made these labels a while ago specifically for 8 oz glass coke bottles. I was a novice at PS when I made them but I still think they look alright.

If you print them out at 100% they should be the perfect size.

I used sticker paper spray painted with light coats of Satin Clear Coat, but there is more than one way to skin this cat.

Distressed and clean.
