Wow, that's really impressive! how big is it? It's hard to tell from the photo.

You should get a rough idea because of the Palisades action figure in the "O".
Nice sign, although the red looks a bit pale.

Glad to hear y'all like it. It's my favorite Muppet project so far.

It's about 13 inches from top to bottom and 17 inches across. It sticks out from the wall about 3 or 4 inches. I had to go to Kinkos to get the pieces printed on 11x17 paper. Mainly, so I could get the background piece to be seamless.

As for the red, I pulled it from a screen grab for the original file. There is always some washout when you print something. I believe the flash may have had some effect as well. It's like alot of things, you gotta see it in person to really appreciate it.

(For the super curious, I scanned one of the season one DVD's to get the lettering to use as a base shape.)

Thanks again for the praise!

Unfortunately, Vic, I'm a bit behind. I had a job change recently and lost access to the program I was using. So...I gotta start over. I'm toying with the idea of just building another Balcony from scratch and selling it on Ebay. Then I could take pictures all the way from start to finish. It'd give me a chance to refine some things as well.
