I have noticed in the past few issues of MR some really nice looking building signs on the featured layouts. They are mainly on brick buildings,have black backgrounds with white lettering. The signs on my buildings are either decals applied to the brick and coated with decal setting solution or I printed them on my computer,mounted them on thin styrene and put them on the buildings, however they don't compare to these signs. <br />Does anyone know how these signs were done? Is the lettering decals or rub on dry transfers? If they are transfers can they be applied so as to look like they conform to the brick and not just sitting on the brick? I have also seen various advertising signs on buildings that look really great. Is there a sourse for these? Also my buildings are already set in place. Will I have any problems putting these types of signs on my buildings? <br />Thanks for any help and ideas. <br /> Bob
