Whit, did you seal the bricks before you painted on them?
Did you freehand this, grid it out, project it, or...?
Did you do the lion too?

First we just pressure washed the wall,,,
then painted straight onto the brick,, no seal,,,
we added linseed oil to the enamel so it would
"Soak" into the brick instead of sitting on top,,,
Projected for the most part,,, Lion included !!!

Nice work Whit! Can you project that during the day? Has a nice retro feel to it. MP

Projected at night,, 2 parts,, projector on top of the pick-up,,,
flash,, draw it off,, roll pick-up forward a bit,, do the next part,,,
the Lion was Dr Pepper's orig logo,, the shield is from 30's adds !!!
The whole thing represents Dr Pepper's early days,, the soda
fountain inside is a museum of sorts for Coke/Dr Pepper memorbelia
so the mural adds a certain flavor to the package (hahahaha)
also provides a photo opp for classic car clubs that have come to
make this a stopover point on their runs ,,,
hahahaha,,, made the news and everything when we were painting it !!!

Another cracker Whit, can just imagine, the cars lining up one at a time for a photo op with that backdrop, real nostalgia feel.
