Phil,
when you come up here to beat the living *** out of him, call in for a cuppa 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
I thought it looked good too, little bit different from the usual “singing fish” 😀 😀

Gray, probable because there’s no cod left in the north sea all they have is Monkfish 😀

He’s a Friar Gray 😆 (as in he fries fish and chips)

now then boys & girls! the sign is a copy of one that was originaly there
& the customer wanted it re painted, so my dad took a photo of the sign,
then i painted it out, gave it back to the farther & he did the picture
from a photo, looking at it now, the fish & chips is a bit high!

Eddie, did your dad offer to paint it for you or did you have to bribe him?
Is it just a hobby of his? Its handy when you know someone who can help you out with jobs like this, if we get asked to do any work like this it gets passed straight over to Jon that works with me. I cant draw or paint like this to save my life, luckily Jon can. -
hi martin, my dad is a full time artist, & does a lot of commercial work
like hotels & bars ect, he useally takes a picture of a business premises &
workes from the photograph, he travels all over the country
he sometimes paints landscapes as well, oh by the way
i gave him €100.00 for the two sides -
Hey Eddie, I used my dads help in the past, he usually says “am I gonna get paid this time?”, my reply is usually “don’t be daft, I’m doing you a favour getting you out of mothers way for a few hours” 😆 😆

nice work eddie, as ever mate 😉
you dont seem afraid to dabble in unfamilure grounds.. painting i mean. i know it was your dad but taking on the work in the first place. deciding to paint as opposed to vinyls and subbing out work for the “coopers” router cut job.. well done mate.. get stuck in my son! as they saying goes 😉 😆
thanks for sharing 😛
