Sign of the Month for January 2001
Rich Litzenberger and Jim Schneck

The Artist's Details..

Thanks Mark for this honor,
Rising Waters in a game location at our amusement park.  Sign was primarily
designed by Jim Schneck  collaborating with Rich Litzhenberger,
using Adobe Illustrator and Gerber Advantage 6.2. 

Most of our designs are a joint effort.

The sign is approximately 3'x8'.  The majority of the sign is layered up 1"
15lb signfoam.  The word 'rising' is 13mm pvc board painted with Deka sign
enamels (no primer necessary).  The effect in the word 'Waters' is an edge
print of a stock Corel photo. The foam has Three coats of J Cooke primer and
1-shot lettering enamel finish.  A 3/4" MDO panel is laminated on the back
of the sign for stability. West systems was used for gluing up all the
layers. Some of our signs receive a polyurethane clearcoat, but this one
went out the door too fast.
All the shapes where hand cut by our carpentry department, using pounce
pattern created on our envision 30" plotter.  The sign was then assembled
and painted by Doug Rontz who was giving us a hand in the shop last spring.
