A demonstration of traditional signwriting techniques employed in restoring a vintage LMS railway carriage to original specifications.
Stunning work. Thank you.
The technical aspects of drop and block shadows are beyond me.... I am just in awe of the skill of the signwriter. Wonderful to see.
Mesmerising! 👏👏👏👏👏
Great video and for those of us who know how to do things by hand, it is a great demonstration of restoring something from the past before computer and vinyl.
I had to make another comment and it is to say wow, all that for one number, unbeleivable artwork and such a steady hand.
Simply an amazing and blessed talent! Thanks for sharing!
Awesome... it's nice to see a REAL signwriter at work...long live the brushmen..
I am just one minute into the video and WOW how i wish that I could do that !
Thanks for a great post,
Hats off to you guys who do this type of work.
Man, that's simply amazing!
what a nice job brother,
so much fun when we can get a job that requires it all be done by hand.
thankfully, still a good percentage of my work.
Superb! :) That is a skill that we need to learn in the LMS Carriage Association! Thank you for sharing your excellent work. :)
Another Masterpiece! Excellent work Dude
truely magnificent to watch well done

Wonderful Video! I have Vinyl equipment that I use but I have started to try my hand at hand painted work now, would love to see this in person being done, awesome skill. thank you for posting!
you best art 👌👌👌👌👌
ohhhhh great job...congratulations
Beautiful work. Definitely not a job to be rushed.
'My' railway has lots of LMS vehicles. We usually apply tiny dots of pink to the edge of the white bands and white dots to the edge of the pink to give a fading effect. Not sure if that was true LMS practice or just us(!)
Damn, I wish I could pull a line that smoothly
This is so cool, it seems hand painting is making a comeback.
Scot Campbell I hope so. I hate vinyl stickers!

Right now in South Africa there is no specialist store (countrywide) anymore that keeps Signwriters brushes or gear. If we want it we have to import ourselves, It's a sad old digital frenzy.
I've long wanted to learn how to do old fashioned sign writing and I looked up your site to see if you do any classes... but you're in Antrim and I'm in London!
Can you give me any kind of idea of good courses I should look out for over here - not having done signwriting before I'm wondering the best place to start.
Thanks very much
Ahh, that was nice.
Very nice
Ah, so that is where I went wrong ! I only used a Tesco "value" soup tin as my dipper rather than splashing out decadently on Heinz "Big Soup"...
Signwriting must pay very well when you are in the super league.
(souper league ?)
🤣🤣🤣🍲🖌️
whoa
Do you ever paint signs on Glass ? If so, what kind of paint do you use ?
Is that Gloss paint? Do you have to let it dry between coats?
Amazing my friend, what kind of paint is it?
Wow Heinz 58 varieties, amazing what you can do with Heinz soup these days.
Is that one-shot?
JUST GREAT WORK. SAD THAT NOBODY WANT TO PAY FOR OUR WORK ANY MORE. THEY WANT IT DONE FOR FIFTY DOLLARS
O seu trabalho é bom, mas alguem da o valor pela arte?
Admirable workmanship but the block shadow is wrong - it should go from the back of the letter. maybe you were copying what was already there though, so it isn't your fault.
I can say the same about the majority of the current graphic design industry.
hello friend i also do this kind of work i'm from brazil, a city called sorocaba in the state of são paulo i wanted to see if you would not send the press of brushes of letters and fillets like the one you are using you could do this favor to see for me i would be forever grateful here there are no easy stores that sell these types of brushes give me a return since already thank you i'm luiz marcos joaquim
You'd have to blame the London Midland and Scottish Railway then. You'd also need to go back to the 1920's U:
Of course... no offense intended
And women! :)
heinz Big cup haha
if that was old time sign writing go and play fog
cut out the crappy Yankee music not needed
Awesome!
