Rob, If you can't find anyone in Europe, I may be able to help. I am away from home for the next few weeks, but PM me with details ... like the font, size, etc. After I get back home, I can cut the masks for you and send them your way. No charge, but postage would be appreciated. Gene K 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozart Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 (edited) Gene, all’s well thanks, I’ve offered to do Rob’s masks. This is what Rob wanted: It’s a sign for a blacksmith’s (smederij) shop, the owner being named Klinkhamer! The larger letters are 4.5mm tall, the smaller ones 2.5mm. In this font it’s pushing the capabilities of the Silhouette for a clean usable cut but Rob can try.

panzerrob Posted June 3, 2023 Author Share Posted June 3, 2023 Sorry Gene for my very late response, I have been too busy with work and my little diorama! As Max wrote, he helped my out with the signs and I am impatiently awaiting their arrival. When they arrive I will try them immideately, and will post the results (good or bad) here. And of course my sincerest thanks to Gene for responding, and Max for the work. With regards, Rob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panzerrob Posted June 6, 2023 Author Share Posted June 6, 2023 Dear all, I want to show you the result of the work that Max did ! The letters turned out a bit small, (my fault) but I can live with that! I needed to to some small touch ups, easy to do. A big thanks to, and a round of applause for Mozart for his work! With regards, Rob 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mozart Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 (edited) It’s a god result by Rob given how small and intricate the masks and font style were, plus the fact that he’s applied them to what appears to be a rough uneven surface…..not the kindest surface for getting a good seal and sharp edge. In this situation I always spray at right angles to the mask and gradually build up paint layers with several light passes. Your feedback and thanks are much appreciated Rob, sadly it doesn’t always happen! 🙁 Edited June 10, 2023 by Mozart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneK Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Very nice diorama in the work, Rob. The touch ups give the letters character! Gene K P.S. Hope the guy looking for his head finds it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
