I don't know if you're set up for blasting, but Paasche has some affordable abrasive airbrushes and guns...The Photo Resist method could be done without investing in the printer if you can find someone to print out the sheet for you. I don't think it would be too hard to get it to roll over the bridge cover.

Here's a quick demo...

I've done a version of that process on a neck plate - it's how all those etched image neck-plates are done.

ok, back to topic… I have a request - I would like a hs decal made for the re-defined Superenova. Here is the design.

I need the sketch formalized and made into a decal. The "S" is an appliqué that I'll glue on when it's back from the finisher. (the one shown is an imperfect/reject only for placement - the one I will use is perfectly round) The height of the lettering is 1/8" and length from u to a tail is 2 3/4" and it has a slight bow following the scallop arch. Anyone interested?

Here are a couple of quickies to try on with the logo you suggested, I went bold and outlined one for effect. The font is here:

Trying to get the best resolution possible under the circumstances, which was to save them from a screen shot on the web. Not ideal. If someone has the font it would be a little sharper at this size, but when reduced it looks presentable.

The curve is pretty easy I think - but was wondering if you liked this now that you have a chance to see it. If you like the outline - the fill can be pretty much any color.
