Blue or Gold?

Hi Gang,

Lettering and graphics play an important role in the appearance of our models. On the build pictured below, I am torn between using the blue or the gold "PARAMEDIC RESCUE" lettering. Any opinions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help!

The Blue stands out more but the Gold is the best choice and more realistic looking, It's almost reflective as well. Thats just me though.

Gold, looks more like what would be rollin out of the fire house

My choice is gold as well.

I vote for the gold!

I like it both ways but the blue more matches the stripes to me?

Go for gold

Why not gold with blue shadow?

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your input! I have decided to stick with the gold. That was my original choice, but a little confirmation never hurts. There is a blue drop shadow underneath. It just appears black in the photo... I appreciate all of your suggestions!

Hmmm, tough choice, How about leaving as is? That way you can have it both ways.

Depending on how you display it, we can only see one side at a time anyway.

Brinx,

Interesting concept! As I have a whole "Station" of apparatus for this company, I plan to take group photos. Most of this station's vehicles have either gold lettering with the blue drop shadow or plain blue...

What colour are the real ones in the states ? Here in australia the lettering is red reflective tape . The gold does look cool though .

David,

You could always explain (blame) any difference in things such as lettering on the vehicle being ordered under the out-going chief or

the different members on this year's truck committee.
