A friend of mine put this together yesterday. I want a sign to put in front of my truck at car shows. Details of the truck will be updated for the final layout

Show signs are fun, especially if your build is at a "static" place where you won't have to change the sign every few weeks. I did a handful of them as well when I was in design school. Its nice not having to explain "whats done to it" lol

Tell him to ease up on the brick red drop shadow under the truck, or at least change the angle of the shadow a bit, the big shadow under the tire give it away too much.

Observation... why have pics of your truck on the display when it will be in front of your truck?

Good one!!! He asked for pictures.....I guess its redundant huh? I'll hang this one in the den and actual sign will have more details and history and less pics

Photos of it going through various stages of restoration, and/or before and after photos are always kind of cool. I've seen a few like that at local car meets.
