Another Race Track done.

[jbrowning]

So I cut out another race track that the MRA races at. I'm looking for suggestions on the lettering. I like the H and P doesn't look to bad but the R I don't like at all. I'm wondering making the P and R a little fatter?

well you yourself found the weak spot.looks fine to me BUT Trial and error will get you where you want to be

let the computer generate the letters for you

Looks good.  As a newbie - I am afraid that lettering is not something I can provide real insight on.  However, I agree with Kevin - if you can generate the letters using the computer that will probably help you feel that they are the right size.

How did you make the pattern and letters? Maybe that would help members suggest alternative methods? Putting the letters inside was an interesting approach.

 

That must be High Plains Raceway, right?

Hello, this was all drawn freehand. The track was from memory, so it might not be an exact match. The lettering I did freehand also.  I wanted to put the letters inside the track so they were secure and would be less likely to break off.

 

Correct this is for High Plains Raceway here in Colorado.

Lettering is tough.  I think you can still salvage the R in the design with a little re-cutting.

Thanks Jim, I will give it a shot over the weekend.
