    This is my first truck lettering job. I think it went quite well. Putting the letters on the doors was the easiest part. I’m still figuring out the cutter and the software. I used quite a bit of vinyl 😳 but I learned from the mistakes….I hope.

    Nice Job mate :thumbup2: Just my opinion though i dont think i would of put the pine tree where it is it seems to be a bit overshadowing i would ditch the birdie and place the pine tree there maybe, or is it a case of its what the customer wanted ? anyway as i say just my opinion…..but still a good job

    Thanks for the up.
    The design was taken from another truck in the customers fleet so I had no design input.
    My camera makes the green tree really pop out. Something to do with UV light from the overcast sky when the photo was taken. It’s quite a bit more subdued in real life. I would have put it behind the “P” if given my preference. The chick is the farm logo…they are a hatchery operation. Kind of had to keep her in there.
    I wimped out and put it on with Rapid tac. I sure hope it stays stuck on.
    The customer was very happy and now he needs a bunch of “bio hazard” signs made for various doors around the farm. I’ll give dry application a try on those.
