Iceman 5 design troubles

Well ive been working on mock ups for the decal designs for my next project, but im running into snags
Either the design would be upside down so the control holes are not cutting into it,
or the controls would cut into it.
But im now trying to get a copy where the main feature is just under the control knobs, but im having trouble doing a good mock up
So does anyone here have or can make a like black and white outline of the body,
As im no good at doing that.
And also does anyone with an iceman or that knows of an iceman know if theres plenty of space behind the bridge.
Ill include one of the better design mock ups
it would be a black coloured guitar,
This is for a five string bass with a takeuchi 5 string bridge, a music man sweet spot pick up, hopefully with its controls condensed down to two concentric pots if i can, active, like volume and tone, middle and bass or whatever the other two are called,
Thanks

P.S The name in the bottom right hand corner of it is my girlfriends name, who is going to be doing the actual drawings for this.
Apart from the abbey which i took on holiday, i dont have any ownership of the other pictures, they are generally just there for designing purposes.
But you can tell where the girl is at the moment her legs would be where the controls are.
So im hoping to redesign her to lying down along the body contour, so i can move the knob controls higher up in the cavity than warmoth do them.
This is a mock up so the design is no where near complete at the abbey part, as it extends further down. and other places.
I got the bridge location by making the black holes for string through invisible and then sizing it up to the black holes on the body picture as it was routed for a takeuchi 5 aswell

Won't that be just like getting a tattoo with a girl's name?

Will you just refinish the bass if you break up with her in the future?
 
Weve been together for 2 years now, and niether of us see that changing anytime soon, nor want it to.
Plus to be honest i would still love it even if the worst happened,
But the signature is in debate, she doesnt mind, but id like it.
and hope someone can come up with something to help me with this. cause im no good at drawing programs  :help:
