JFong,
Thank you
I have been playing around a lot with Microsoft Office Word Art to do the lettering. Most of the same fonts that you would find for any other writing are available.
I'm not sure which drawing you're talking about, but for the Rescue aerial I used Eurostile. I've done quite a bit of emergency vehicle graphics and lettering to make some money on the side and for some reason I really like the look of that font, especially in Extended Bold. So when I saw it available in Word Art I had to give it a try.
As for the air and light rig and the Pierce tiller I used Rockwell. I extended it and then arched it up.
It is a little time consuming though to "trim" off some of the pixels around the edges, especially fonts that have serifs because the letters tend to overlap, but I've been pretty happy with the end result. I'll post a few of the lettering styles that I've drawn up.
Hope that helps
Thank you
