Hi
Just wanted to share my first lettering job, didn't expect to get any hand lettering jobs, as they are very rare here in Denmark. Great fun to do, and getting a lot of attention, from the people passing by. [Smile]

Nice clean edges on what looks like a pretty rough surface.

Nice job (good to wet the brushes once in awhile).

Joe,

Makin Chip$ and Havin Fun!

Very nice job.. you made a good pattern and it works easy then on a surface like this.

Mounting a sign up there just does have the elegance
of Hand Painted lettering on a surface.

Looks great. Did you have a template? or did you just sketch it up there and just start painting? If Template, how did you transfer it to the building surface.
Good job painting on such a rough surface, thats tough.

Thanks, for the comments.

I used an template made with a ball point in the plotter. Then going over the outline with a pounce wheel, and transferring the text to the wall with charcoal dust.

A fun little project and it turned out great. The pattern method you used is exactly what I would.

Perfect!

The letter style fits very well.

Peace,
