Very nice OP! That's actually one of the nicer things I've seen you do.

Did you freehand everything? Or did you use some sort of template for the image?

Looks great! [Smile]

I'll never forget the Sinclair station across the street from my church when I was a kid. The "C" in Sinclair fell off the sign, so right across the street from the church it said Sin lair.

Reminds me of the 1964 NY Worlds Fair, all the great stuff there and the two biggest thrills were seeing the Pieta and getting a plastic Sinclair dinosaur at their exhibitionn.

Love it, but it needs a little dirt, crackle and rust paint on the edges to give it the antique look !

cool sign............and the background is fine like that !

I loved Sinclair stations as a kid because I could get plastic dinosaurs there. I've heard those dinos are really valuable now. Mine wouldn't be, since they lived a hard life, putting up with my digging fingernails into them on a regular basis.

this is a better pic taken inside without a flash, so it doesnt wash out the background. i tried to make it look a little old by takenin away the bright white, and dulled the gloss of the colors.

The letters look a bit dinged up there, but that is typical of some of the old "snappers". Fitting I suppose.
