This sign had to cover up the old stone sign. He wanted a Racoon on it. I hand carved the racoon in 3 hours of fun. It took 1 1/2 hours to paint it. The 4x8 background took 23 hours to cut. The letters took 7 hours to cut.

No airbrush involved Graham, the letters were just sprayed with normal spray gun. You can't get enough material on with an airbrush. The raccoon was brush painted.

I really love your work...nice red background and a fantastic wood grain texture...you handled the animated raccoon with perfection...the irregular border across the top is something I would not have thought of...but it fits the overall theme well...fun sign done well.
