you should've entered it in TJ shchiller's contest, or try to sell the idea to an existing company.

but with those skills, you should make an entry for the Icelantic contest for sure.

just email armada's customer support and I'm sure they could point you in the right direction.

I'd ponder a guess that they'd be like Nordica's Jah Loves.

Dimensions? Like,  168/140/165?

Yeah I definitely think you've dug yourself out a future career, and a very bright one. Get your stuff out there, create other pieces so you can demonstrate your range.

Those are sweet. It would be even better if one year Armada had a lot of reggae artists on there skis. (promoe, bob marley, capleton, sizzla, cali P, ect...) I think that would be a sweet line up of skis if done correctly.

maybe on one ski line because if you do a bunch of reggae artists it is kinda an overkill you know?

oh btw quick question, where did you get the outline for the skis; did you make it yourself or can you find them somewheres...

also sick graphic, this would be much better than any other rasta inspired armada ski

I just used the Pen tool and outlined the top left 1/4 of the ski and duplicated it 4 times to get the outline. It is a rough outline IMO but it all depends if it will be a pow ski or park you know?
