Hey all,
I pretty much got the roof sign finished using the Matte medium transfer method. The sign came out perfect, than I took some 300 grit sandpaper to it, to chip it up.

On a side note, I was in Michaels the other day, and came across this paint/stain. Thought I would see what it would do. I am always trying for that old aged look. The first pics go in order, the ink stain, followed by an application of the driftwood pickling (which you wipe off after application), than I highlighted with regular driftwood paint. I gave it a very light black paint wash to bring the grain out a little more. The last shot is a piece that I really beat the you know what out of....Still working on sample, and other methods, but might be something someone out there might find useful. Till next time, the Mad Scientist is going back to work.....

Nice job, Loren.  Nice finishes, great signs.  The peeling paint technique is very effective.
