16' long banner - not too often I paint a banner, but even I can do letters that big. I did this one with Ronan Aquacote while drinking a cold frosty beverage and grilling fajitas... I didn't really plan it as well as it came out - I lucked out that the tree and the post didn't obscure things more. the second one was also Ronan Aquacote. I was working from a 100x800 pixel original... and blew it up to 11' x 2-1/2' (an Oce print). The challenge was to keep the original's lively sketch quality. -------------------- :: Scooter Marriner :: :: Coyote Signs :: :: Oakland, CA :: :: still a beginner :: ::

The original thumbnail sketches were done by a Pixar artist. Its always fun to work on stuff done by somebody better than oneself. -------------------- :: Scooter Marriner :: :: Coyote Signs :: :: Oakland, CA :: :: still a beginner :: ::
