Well well, It's been 1 hour in the making and my HUGE cv's are finished. The size is a bit dodgy I'll get a photo when it's not actually cut out. The base Idea was to a get my CV and make it look like a swiss poster. Since a large number of the CV's I've sent out are in Swiss type. And besides I wanted to see if I could make something look Swiss, does it?! It was originally square, but then it wasn't - I did want my name and the CV handdrawn like old school design was, but I didn't have the time nor the patience to actually do it. There are 8 of them, I wanted 10 but didn't have the cash on me when I was at Sigma getting them blow up. 8 is a nice rounded number though. Anyways, the idea behind them was 'the bigger they are, the more people would notice them, and therefor the quicker someone would employe me' Wishful thinking I know but hey, it might work out :). The scalpel there is for size reasons, to give you something to compare it to. I havent donethe measurements, but the original one was 30cm x 25 cm, and that was blown up from an a3 sheet to an a0 sheet. enjoy
