Concept Wrap Ideas

[I.Vegabond]

Used MidJourney to create some concept vinyl wraps for my Green 2-door. I'd love to get some feedback - I'm trying to go with a Galaxy design that isnt literally Galaxy print.
The biggest challenge will be to find a graphic design that can make the concept reality (I'm already struggling with this).

I think the first one looks ok. As concept art, it gets the point across. Getting it on the top or fender
flares is probably going to be difficult. I'd contact your local XPel shops and see if they have any recommendations for designers.

Not really interested in getting it on the top or fenders, I'm ok with leaving those MIC. That's a battle I already know I'm going to lose

Each have their own likeable qualities.
I think I like 3,2,1,4,5 in that order.
I Really want to like #1, but it may give off a bit more tie-dye vibe vs. galaxy. I like the vibrant colors and contrast.

I've actually done some of this galaxy effect before with dry pearls and an airbrush. It is a blast to do!

Thanks for the feedback! I really love 1 because it gives me a northern lights vibe and 2 because it has a little bit of almost geometric lines on the front. I'm also a fan of darker moody stuff with pops of color (for the contrast).

You've done this with an airbrush, so body paint? I'm almost afraid to ask what that costs

On a 4 Dr. Bronco-sized vehicle probably about $8-10K ballpark. And that's on the "cheaper" end because of the fun artsy stuff I'd get to do on it. Not cheap materials, though. Full repaints typically start at that cost without the artistic effects unless you to a Maaco, and you are not getting the best materials or job, and no artsy stuff.... Should be no dents or rust to worry about so the labor time is down considerably for the prep part. All the labor is in the multiple applications and layers of work.
A green vehicle would have to be sanded down, painted black base, a good coat of clear to lock that down, then sanded again smooth. Airbrushing of planets, stars, etc, then dry pearls added in random (but with intent for effect) areas to simulate the nebulas and such. Another 2 coats of clear. Sanded again, another 2-3 coats of clear.
Of course one would want to continue the effect into the door jambs so that with the doors off the effect is that much cooler and cohesive.

edit: a few pics of a Mc’d’s table I did for fun. My 1st attempt at the “Galaxy” look effect. Other effects for fun as well.

Just a couple of ideas. Have you considered fading from a solid color to a galaxy print or doing some sort of “tear” design where the galaxy print shows thru? It may break it up a bit from being too busy.

Also, I ran across this. They call it their “ACI DYNAMIX LAMBORGHINI HURACAN PERFORMANTE GALAXY ORION NEBULA CUSTOM VINYL WRAP DESIGN SKEPPLE WRAPHIC 6”.

Or “galaxy Camo”?

The fade Option I think is the best one - the problem I have with most Galaxy prints or printed wraps in general, is they always seem to be the same design over and over and there is never much "pop" or or contrast. I also have a green base color and want to incorporate dark blues. Having a cohesive way to use both colors in the design allows my jams and pillars to not be an eye sore when the doors and top are off.

OK that's pretty awesome.
Gives me some serious ideas...

Mclaren has done a few fade options ... latest is the spectrum option:

So many different ways to blend, fade or highlight the colors even before you start putting whatever galaxy/star/space theme so pick what works for you.

Have you thought about a tribute?

Nice! Protection and will hid the battle damage (branch pin stripping and rocks) from the trails....

1-2-4 then I saw other wraps...
That's a tough decision. Goodluck🫰

Definitely understand. At the end of the day, I think your best bet is to find the right installer first. They will know what print can/will give you the variation you want....and vinyl wraps can be custom ordered (maybe you find the right design, but want different colors, brightness, etc.)
