Hi Jonesy,

Looking good. Have you tried putting a space between each of the characters and then dragging to correct total length of reg? Will give you better spacing between the letters and also narrow each character slightly.

Hi Jonesy

As well as the gap raised by John the hyphen seems too long

What did you use in the end?

Jonesey..

You'll need to distort it slightly too mate.. the reg on the real aircraft slants back on the RH side and fwd on the LH side.. if you see what I mean :wink:

He may have done that Dave :think:

I mention that above in my test shots with examples of that......both sides slanting back....that is towards the tail.

Yeh I have slanted the reg slightly, allthough it might need a bit more. I will play around with the spacing later too.
Font I used was something called New Media from one of Ian's links.

Sri Jonesey :smile:

It looks straight from the angle of your shot (or as near as damn it) :worried:
