Boa noite congrats vai amén bom trabalho

[@artemaso]

This man is the kind of man you go to for guidance and apprenticeship, he has seen how it is done and he has done the way it is supposed to be done.

The man is talented and I just love the craftsmanship and organicness of doing it by hand. But then rubbing it away to make "it look like it was done in the 50's" is a little on the pastiche side of things isn't it?

Hey Jerry. Nice work. Thanks for sharing. I go up to Ron Purcells Letterhead Meet once in a while. I'm still handlettering and love it. Patrick Smith SignPainter.

[@crazymodelgarage6438]

this is awesome!! what kind of paint is this?

[@MillerWelders]

Thanks for your question! The paint Jerry uses is One Shot brand - it's more or less the industry standard in the world of hand lettering.

[@nytom4info]

Crazy Model Garage any kind of thinned oil will do... ;)
