Tricky

If there are any photoshop wizards out there, then I think this //http://graphicriver.net/item/seamless-snowflakes-texture/68160 would look rather fine.  Possibly with a graded tint over the top.
It's a seamless pattern, so simply stretching the pattern size slightly should allow the repeat to fit any circumerence perfectly.
I'd have a go, but I don't have photoshop... :(

I'm too geographically challenged to participate, but had an idea I would have submitted - something resembling white hot circuitry, sort of a cross of Tron and Def Leppard's Hysteria cover, utilising the EIMA cover microphone Frosterisk throughout. Feel free to steal that. Or not.  :D
...and I can feel the world is turning...turn around

Damn I was gonna say that Frosterisk Microphone mesh as well. Its in teh toys section I believe? One of the wallpapers. I realise I wouldn't win with that contribution but ho hum.

Just a quickie q, Mr blunders but what are the cymbals that'll be in use?

And not meaning to steal the thunder of the competition but is the gig section going to be updated soon?

rather retro slogan in the fast paced Frostisphere!  not sure it would wrap round a drum, but hey ho!

That was without doubt the most hilarious gig I have every been to.
And one of the most enjoyable evenings I've ever had, fullstop*.

Did I get away with that?

Keep sending them in guys, were getting some amazing ideas !

Mouse

Holy helicopters and juice, what a fantastic idea, Blunders! I might have to have a crack at this later, I'm already starting to get some ideas through the void...

Oh, by the way, does anyone have any recommendations as to what dimensions would be good for a high quality JPEG? And when would any/all ideas have to be sent in by? And can we submit multiple designs? And is Kia-Ora really too orangey for crows...?

Mooncat

I wondered whether there was any scope for different designs too.
Both Neil Peart and Nicko McBrain have had custom kits where each drum had different graphics, albeit all based on one 'background'

Hi all, I've just spoken to pimpco, yes you can design the individual drums if you like but keep it with a running theme, we really want to create something very special that's never been done before which looks amazing

Someone should do something with a Lion or Biscuits :lol:

V. Nice.
But, just to remind folks, we are talking about design(s) that will be printed onto wraps that will go around the outside of each drum. Not a circular design for the kick drum face.
