i think it’s vinyl. perhaps touched with paint (?) , i’m sure i can see a white border (barely) around the yellow text,

looks nice n clean though 😀

cool, i didnt notice the digger first time around, very subtle !

the yellow text looks to be two colours, i’m guesing its a chiselled font ising two yellow shades ?

Very Nice Jill!

What colors did you use on the chiseled font… Canary and Sunflower… or is it shadow vinyl?

Was wondering the same about the colors – the yellows

looks great Jill
I like how the backhoe (? whatever that thing is ? 😉 ) is incorporated into the grey….Great look!

and show us what you’re painting!
pleeeease
(what? I said please :lol1: )

we are going to be working on a farm sign, painted & vinyl MDO (custom cut) with added HDU rounds….I may have some questions for you regarding paint etc. 😳

Steve, what do you mean by ‘shadow vinyl’?

It’s a tinted vinyl, kinda like window tint, that makes whatever color you’re putting it on slightly darker.

Works well on some colors, but not all.
here’s some samples….
one that was posted onthe forums a while ago, and one that i just did.

Thanks for that Steve, perfectly answered!

I love the Motorcycle van, and I really like the shadow effect. I want to do some!

I see it’s made by Avery, but does anyone know of any other makers of this type of vinyl, as I don’t use Avery.

Thanks

Thanks guys.
It’s just Calon II HP vinyl in Primrose Yellow and Yellow.
Looks almost neon in person.
Nice work Steve.
Love…Jill

I think it looks great!!

Nice, clean, highly legible with just the right amount of lettering effects to give it a bit of flavour.

Don’t always need all the photo effects, fades, etc. to make a nice looking design.

Glad the customer was happy too Jill!
