It's done!!
I need to get better pictures, but this is the gist of it... I know the letters are hard to see, that was intentional. I want people to have to look closely to figure out what it says and what it's made of. This is actually pretty close to what I had originally envisioned. I love the look of rusty metal and peeling paint, and I wanted an aged, neglected look to the paint. There are some changes in the process that I would make if I did it again, so I may make a series of ones like this or smaller, experimental ones. Would love to play with the colors and the streaky/smudgy effects.
