    Nice work Steve,

    what are the letters made of, its hard to see in the picture are they mounted separately or are they printed/painted to give a relief effect,

    If they are separate what have you made them in Forex ?, HDU ?

    very smart steve as usual mate 😉

    like henry has said what are the letters made of, is it gold leaf or a gloss gold of some sort?

    strikes me that must be a nice little earner of a job Steve – what with all those panels… 😉 😛 😎

    It should be too with all the work that’s obviously gone into each one – I like the colours too, very rich and traditional.

    thanks for the photo…

    more soon

    Henry the letters are 18mm Medite painted then gilded, they where hand cut with a fret saw then a 45 degree edge with a hand router.

    Martin the layout is mine, why?
