New Truck Lettering

My old vynull was beginning to look shabby so I thought "What the heck, I'm gonna paint that thing"
So I did.
All hand-done, gal is based on a Gil Elvgren pin-up.
Took about 3 hours, using a pattern I taped to the inside of the glass.
Love....Jill

Very cool. How long does something like that hold up (car washes, etc)?

Dan...you were the reason I did it.
:smile:
This should last at least 5 years or so. Particularly since I rarely wash my truck.

My old vynull was gold glass etch Oracal, it looked good until the past six months or so (lettered in 2009)
Thanks so much, folks. I really enjoyed painting this one, on probably the last warm day we'll have for a long time.

Besides the overall layout I especially like the "Custom Signs" lettering where you didn't try to paint it to look like cut vinyl. It has so much life in comparison.

How's the green text for readability? Would be my only concern, but hard to tell from a pic.

Look awesome though! I'm on here so sporadically, but I always look forward to seeing your updates, and this is no exception. Good work :thumb:
