Well, for me it was a joyous day, when I learned that this old western show was going to be dusted off and re-furbished for a new age. I have still to see the movie, but I thought I'd give it a whirl anyway.

So far I have been collecting artwork, and think I have what I need - and the idea for layout - but images are still far from my work bench - as I have decided to try and make my own custom TT, inspired by the old Disneyland resort railway posters. This may take me some time LOL! :D :D
So far I've just been sketching in the old-fahioned way, but I'm getting close to the finishing touches; so I thought I'd scan my progress and start this thread.

I love it! I never knew you had great typography skills! :) I know this is off topic, but I think you should make your own, big TT for Dances with Wolves for a great wow factor.

Thanks for all your comments - really helps me on the way! :cheers:

I'm sorry if y'all think I handcrafted the letters from the bottom. I have source material from several Disneyland park themes, so really it's some graphic designer at Disney's who came up with the letters. I have simply adjusted them in order to create the missing letters in my TT, when I drew them onto paper.

Anyway - for me the most important thing is trying to 'transfer' my drawing into Ps or Ai (in which I basically suck) - and then learn as much from this project that I can.

Here's a small update. Placements of the banners aren't final (the banners aren't necessarily finished either); I'm just playing around with how to present the actor names. If I can find a good image of LR's colt I'll try and add that also to the small items at the bottom.

Very nice JR, the slanted line on the N could be a bit bolder ?
