Traditional Sign Writer methods used for these wall signs.
As you may notice from the photos, the wall is not flat! :-) ,this is why this sort of project is best done the traditional way, hand painted with brush, paint and the good ol' mahl stick for support.
The end result is a unique bespoke sign that will stand out for years to come.
A Classic Traditional Sign for a Modern Business.

Bit of a close up of 'work in progress' :-)

Great fun design this one!, and a bit of a challenge as it was such an old wall.
Really well chuffed with the end result though, looks great from the road approaching the pub!
Thanks to the lovely people at The Spotted Cow in Holbrook, Derbyshire for the commission :-)
All Signwriting done by hand direct to external brickwork/wall.

Cool simple yet stylish design on this one. The lettering was signwritten onsite, using signwriters external satin white enamels. All done with brush and paint ( no stickers or masks here! lol ) .. old school methods for a modern sign in 2020.
Nice to get out onsite up a ladder in the fresh air while the weather holds off !! :-)
Thanks @pomponettehome !

Nice commission for a bespoke family sign recently left the studio.
This one roughly based on a supplied photo and then designed exclusively for the client with their supplied wording and text... love the colours in this, very striking.
All Signwriting hand painted using 1Shot Paints lettering and scroll work hand sketched and then painted direct to the board.

As it looks like we have to live with this Pandemic and sadly doesnt look like its going to disappear anytime soon, I have been producing, and being asked a lot about Coronavirus Covid19 Signs, Signage and Graphics. If your interested and need these for you business Just give me a call, or send an email and we can discuss supplying and installing floor spacing social distancing signs as well as notices and guards.
They can be installed in most places and premises no problem, and can be bespoke to suit your needs.

What strange times we live in, been a few weeks since my last post so thought it about time i was active on here, even though we are all in lockdown i thought i would share a few pre-pandemic photos of recent jobs, hopefully we can all get back to some kind of normality soon :-)

The below is a mix of works including Traditional Signwriting, Honours Boards, Van & Vehicle Signage and Large scale internal business Murals.

Best Wishes to all, especially all the key workers and the NHS!. #nhsheroes 

Keepsafe!, Al Scott.

Time waits for no one, and when theres a deadline of a business opening in the winter months, its sometimes a case of wrap up warm, gloves on.. and drink lots of warm coffee to get the job done.
This being just the case with the newly opened Bridle Lane Tavern, now called just 'The Bridle Lane' in the centre of Leicester.
The old wooden signs were removed and replaced with the new Signwriting painted direct to the external render on both sides of the Pub.

Work done in Febuary 2020, Leicester - Al Scott Signs.
