opinions on what style of font yous would use for the hailing port.


I'm thinking a lot thinner font to compliment the Valentino.

 

[Jillbeans]

What you have looks good to me.
Alternatives might be Chesham Sans Regular by LHF or Sign Gothic by Signfonts.

[Shovelhead]

We agree....

 

[Jillbeans]

...of course!

Love....Jill

 

[Shovelhead]

Interested in what....

is the going rate in everyone's neighborhood....

8" x 31" (2 color cast)

I'm hitting him for a Hunge installed!!!
Have to walk across the street to bang it out.

Although the two styles go well together, I think it's a little too 'Wimpy' now.

Needs a little strength on the bottom. With or without those dots, it's a little top heavy.

Thought the original CLEARFACE GOTHIC.....

was over-powering.

you need an inbetweeney stroke....

 

[Gino]

Your Call,

just an observation.... here's another... try inserting a little more room after the comma. I know its a style, but it looks a little too close.

 

[Shovelhead]

what's....

you need an inbetweeney stroke....

that mean??

 

[Rick]

Thinner strike than the first pic, thicker stroke than the last pic

I agree about the comma. (on the second one)

 

[Shovelhead]

Makes sense.....

I didn't notice it.
Change made.

"yous" lol ....... it's rubbing off on you ....... being up there .......... Hey SH ... just wanted to say thanks .... you said 2k on a past post regarding a 16' truck .... sold at 2300 with tax AND checked out all your boat stuff and got R first boat job this week. Came up with a design and will post when done ... used some of your concepts for inspiration ......... don't get all soft on me ........... just saying thanks!

Hey Shovel,
One thing I would suggest is to rotate the Motivation script a tic or two up on the right side. Most Script tends to look like it running down hill even though the text baseline is level.

 

[Shovelhead]

Never thought of that....

but the boat will be rocking up and down so I don't think it will matter.
I will keep that in mind on a stationary object in the future.

Mike, that is a good tip.
I usually do the same thing.
Shovel, is a "hunge" $100? I'd say that's about right if you only have to walk across the street.
(I only speak Pittsburghese)
Love....Jill

 

[Shovelhead]

Yes.....

a "hunge" is a "hunge" less than two "hunge"....
and two "hunge" less than tree "hunge".
Not to be confused with a "hun"...like in a-"hun" fourty ninth street.
