Thank you.
I was full of joy after returning from Letterheads 40 (still am) and was so glad to have a project I could sink my teeth into.
The guy who drives the truck is not the boss :smile: The boss loves it.
In their weekly meeting of managers, the boss said they have been getting a lot of...
Here's one I did last month.
I couldn't change the logo (it's not a bad looking logo except that it used Arial)
But I added a "service guy" and with some good advice from Dan Antonelli, I snuck in Gotham instead of the Arial.
This is 100% hand painted using a pounce pattern and lettering...
Please help me, I know it's a simple fix, but I can't remember what to do.
Accidentally deleted my color toolbar.

I much prefer it with the griffin, it matches the retro looking font.
I would leave it all the same tones.
Maybe tighten the icon to the lettering a bit more.
The basic idea is OK, the only thing I really like about it is the claw mark :smile:
The fonts are difficult to read and will look dated rather quickly.
I'd go for a western style Playbill based font for Grizzly, and distress it a bit.
Try to avoid outlines as much as possible.
The laundry...
Your fonts do conflict with each other.
The big A looks real modern and dynamic, while the other lettering looks retro 1930s.
I'd go all one way or all the other.

Saw some awesome layouts at the American Sign Museum last week.
Here is an article about the Beverly Sign Company.

also a photo I took of their mock-ups.
It's just our "meet hangover".
It was great to talk with you, and your "Vanilla Ice" friend.
He got what I was trying to convey!
I am glad you like your panel!

Gonna replicate, and hopefully improve this sign for a good client.
I need to know the fonts #1,2,3, and 4 please.
Not worried about the scripts, the dreaded Algerian, or the body text, which is Footlights.
Thanks in advance.

Mine is through Hannahstown Mutual, under $500 a year but it's very slim coverage.
Pretty much covers if I was delivering a sign and it blew off my truck, etc.
Remember, regular auto insurance will not cover that.

While I can see where you are trying to go with this, it seems a bit too disjointed and you do not want people to read "assy".
Do the word Sweet as you have it, maybe drop the "weet" slightly and move it a bit tighter to the S, and then do n Sassy underneath it in all lower case.
I do not...
When my roller got sticky on the old 4E, I cut a piece of etched glass vinyl (because it has somewhat of a "tooth") to fit it and carefully applied it. Fixed it right up.

The layout is busy and breaks a few rules...no all-caps in a display typeface and too much distortion.
I would try again with a plainer font. Don't go caps and lower case if you are going to arch lettering, though.
I'm glad you added a border, it helps to add a finished look.
When I do a...
Yup, my "real job" (Penn Fence) sells those. I think we'd have to ship direct, as these things are very easily damaged in shipping.
Ask for Todd Bowser if you call.
