Building a Better Neon Desert: Part Four

Photos: Kim and Philip Sullivan 

Once all of the framework is complete, its time to enclose the letters and REALLY make them three-dimensional!  

In the last Neon Desert Sign Update, the "NEON" letters had just been framed out.  The picture to the left is a picture of Philip Sullivan putting the layers of ply on the first "N" of "NEON".  Enjoy the pictures, and .GIF files. As with all the updates, check the video at the bottom of one of the bands playing at Neon Desert.

 Both "N"'s complete!

 Another 40 sheets of ply, and 30 - 2"x4"s

It gets tricky

Sweet! Now that the "NEON" letters were completed, it was time that the painters start their work.

Werc and Gera were chosen to paint the letters
