    Default President & First Lady

    Messing around with the carver today and constructed this sign. Thought I would see what the expert think.

    Hi z-man I'm not an expert but I'm not going to BS you the font look's good but the pic doesn't, I think if you are going to use a pic it should be done as a litho.

    Default I.....

    think the pic looks great - it is a representation of an image that a lot of us know. As for as lay-out and design it is dead on - THE SIGN LOOKS GREAT.

    Pictures like that are not forgiving in the least when carved into wood. It doesn't work out as well as on a litho. That having been said, I think this image in wood turned out exceptionally well. Of course the text came out fantastic and I really like the finishing.
