That looks great. What is the material?

[Keith Oates]

Thats HDU!! the front panels, spine,and page pieces are 1.5 and the grid incerts are .75. If im not mistaken i believe its called duna board. I love working with it compared to sign foam brand.

if 50 years ago i would have said " with one click of the mouse i could see something wonderful"
they would have thought me mad to click a mouse
but you know the rest of the story as you see this beautiful job.

If thats a first sign then you're already a pro:D
I like the paint job it really makes the sign stick out

"you have learned much young padawan":rolleyes:

[Keith Oates]

Thats not a sign its a piece of art thanks for sharing all photos
I also think a sign has to turn heads stand above the crowd.By doing the book it looks so unique

Any tips on the painting was it done by hand ? If done by hand how long

[Keith Oates]

Thank very much!! Yes it was hand painted, i had to try and match a painting inside the library, luckily for me the artist came in and helped pick and mix paints. It took me and another guy about 2 weeks to paint it....NOT FUN AT ALLL lol but it turned out pretty good for a 2 guys who dont paint lol :D
