Hi,

I am looking for a kind of curvy wave (tribal kind of design) that i can use to present text in. It is seen in recent ads for nokia and mcdonalds…kind of 60’s curve

The following link shows the kind of design i am talking about (in center of pic).

http://www.empiremovies.com/posters.php?id=4116&hustlean dflow.htm

However i can not easily extract the design from the above poster so i am wondering if anyone knows of a similar looking design and could send me a link to it so i could use it. i have been scouring the web for ages and can not find anything that looks good.

Thanks.

It doesn’t look very "60’s" to me–are you sure that’s the correct link?

Hi,

this one doesnt look very 60’s but the kind of curvy wave idea i was talking about reminds me of a 60’s look.

Heres another example of the sort of style i was talking about.

There’s nothing at all tribal in the image above. That’s pin striping.

Again, nothing tribal at all here.

there’s nothing tribal in here but seems to me as a sort of revival of "Art Nouveau"
like this:

(except if you think Prague is inhabited by Vandals).

Buy a dictionnary of design styles or this book:

Give Adobe Studio Exchange a try http://share.studio.adobe.com/ Select "Custom Shapes" in the downloads dropdown list. Then have a look at the second page (aprox) there are some shapes called "tribal tattoo art" listed on there that might be of use. If not, have a look around as there is also lots of other stuff on that site that might be of use.
Good luck
