I have a job framing a signed Playboy magazine. The customer wants to add bunny logos to the mat in the 4 corners. So the total logo size shouldn'e be over 2-2 1/2" high
I can design this in Pathtrace, but i am having trouble getting it cut out well. My trouble is in the bow tie and the collar. If I follow the logo the bevels don't allow for enough room and tear out. If I move the bow tie and collar the design looks off. I am not going to worry about the bunnies eye.

OH Btw this is a rush good that has to be picked up tomorrow.

I don't know nuttin' about CMCs but if I were in a hurry and had to do this and could get the machine to cut the wabbir - I'd but the bowtie and collar by hand! Try it - it should be easy!!! Sketch in under the wabbit head and cut from the front - should only take a few seconds to do all four! Collar would be like a V-groove for that scale.....

Have fun!

Or - you could CMC the wabbit and draw or paint in the tie and collar with paint......
 
Maybe do the bow and the neck tie as V-Grooves?

Or cut the whole thing as a Drop, and adhere those to the matboard?
 
I got it done.

Very nice! I like it (despite the subject).
 
I made it a bit bigger then I wanted it. The bunnies are 3" tall.
I had to keep tweaking the placement of the collar & tie as well as some tweaks in the blade depth settings.
 
Paul, Your link is dead.
 
Paul, that is just a link to PhotoBucket, not your account or an image. To copy an image click on the IMG code.

Opps, I missed Freestyle's comment.
