signage on doors

[414banger]

can someone give me an idea on how to go about painting signage on door to look weathered and rustic

Not to be a smart azz,but have you tried a search using "how to paint door art"? There's a lot of threads on it already. If you can I have a friend on here that goes by doubles69 he does pinstriping and paints door art.


Some of the threads have a step by step tuturial on doing it. Good luck on your art I think it's neat on the right truck

I sprayed red primer,lettered with flat black. Sprayed over it all with thin coat of grey primer then sanded in select places sparingly. I also used some blue under the grey in some areas to highlight raised spots that needed more weathering.

Try model railroad forums. They are good at making stuff look like it was there 100 years ago.
