Summary
This clinic explains how to go about using poor prototype photos of building signs to create clear, usable signs for use with models of all scales.
Description
We will use basic tools, like Corel Paint Shop Pro and Microsoft’s PowerPoint, and their equivalents to recreate prototype signs, poorly captured in vintage photographs. Such photos are common, and offer their own challenges for the modeler, including origin identification, perspective distortions, color variations, and unique fonts and graphics.
