Visual anatomy & craft review

Letterform structure
of Grime Slime.

Grime Slime is a two-style urban graffiti family in a solid and a melting-slime version: fat interlocking letters with a hard keyline, and a second cut where the bottoms of the letters sag into drips and pooled slime. The melting cut grows the word downward and needs extra leading, and the drips are the finest element. The solid cut needs roughly 28 mm and the melting cut 32 mm for their detail to read, and both work as a one-colour vinyl cut or a flat two-colour print.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Grime Slime’s stroke geometry.

Halloween

Fright-night poster, ticket and door sign

A melting slime face reads as a toxic spill rather than a cartoon monster, which is what a themed night wants at the gate. The drips hold at 120 mm on a poster, and two flat inks print the poster and the tickets in one order.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Poster A2, word 120 mm with 16 mm drip clearance, details 40 mm, 20 mm margins. Ticket 100 x 50 mm, word 12 mm, 4 mm perforation. Door sign 250 x 350 mm, word 60 mm, 24 mm margins.

Pre-production check

A 100 x 50 mm ticket at 12 mm merges the drips into the baseline and the word reads as a smear. Raise the ticket to 18 mm, and print one ticket before the batch.

Birthday

Slime-party invite, cake topper and cup wrap

A slime face announces a messy party through the lettering alone. The drips hold at 44 mm on a topper, and two flat inks print the invite and the wraps as one set.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Invite A6, word 44 mm with 12 mm drip clearance, details 8/11 pt, 12 mm margins. Topper 130 x 110 mm, word 48 mm with a 6 mm stick slot and 12 mm clear. Cup wrap 200 x 90 mm, word 20 mm, 12 mm from the rim.

Pre-production check

A 130 mm vinyl topper cut at the drips leaves 1 mm tails that snap on the stick. Weld the drips to the keyline, and test one before the party.

Brand & packaging

Skate-shop identity, sticker and window decal

A slime graffiti face reads as a printed sticker rather than a corporate mark. The drips hold at 30 mm on a sticker, and two flat inks print the sticker and the decal in one order.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Sticker 90 x 60 mm, word 30 mm with 8 mm drip clearance, 5 mm die margin. Window decal 400 x 200 mm, word 60 mm, 25 mm margins. Card 85 x 55 mm, word 20 mm, 5 mm margins.

Pre-production check

A 90 x 60 mm sticker at 30 mm closes the drips into a solid edge and the name reads as a tile. Raise the sticker word to 40 mm, and check one sheet before the run.
