I don't normally post ugly signs, but I have to wonder why somebody would choose to hand paint a sign like this when they sell vinyl lettering? I would think that vinyl would have looked better? You think this might be a temporary sign for their business? A pinstriping buddy of mine spotted it...

Nice style and finishing. The only thing my eye picks up immediately are kerning issues along with a little crowding to the borders of your sign. The only other last detail is on the Woodhaven resort sign, I would have matched the angle of the peaked roof with your lashed wood frame surrounding...

Me personally? I started out hand lettering long before computers were even invented. A natural progression from flat to dimensional just by being passionate about wanting to learn more and more. Made a lot of expensive mistakes. Stubborn hardass that I am, kept learning everything possible. And...

Thanks Jim, I respect your work as well!!!

LOL. I'm still learning myself :Big Laugh

Some are. I have one in EPS, another is welded aluminum, and another enclosed PVC.

I'm kind of digg'n it.

Flat out saying no to a client has been a better long term investment than taking their money and running. You can choose to do only good work or you can put your name to crap. Easy choice in my book.

I really like it!

Send Neato a check. He nailed it!

Like the color choices and overall layout. I think you could bump up the size of the pump handle a bit more so it becomes a little more obvious? Only minor tweaks but great design!

Awesome school logo:rock-n-roll::rock-n-roll:

I have in the past used my cnc router table with a 60 degree bit to score the mag then it tears apart nicely.You could sub that out I'm sure.

Here are a few different profiles I've done over the years.

I use an exacto knife or utility knife. two passes at most and a steady hand on the curves. Straight edge as a guide on the straights.
