I would like some 3D lettering to add to various buildings but cannot seem to find any.
I found modelrailwayscenery used to make some but the magazine I found the article in is 3 years old and I cannot find them on thier website.
Are there other manufacturers who make letter sets?
They need to have depth so transfers are no good in this case. If possible, I'm after a mix of fonts so they don't all look the same on each seperate building.
Thanks

Thanks flying scotsman123.
What I'll do is edit the original post and add all links posted to keep them altogether as and when they are posted.

Someone gave me the Slaters signboard kit. Used the boards long ago but there's plenty of letters for use on my own boards.
Growing old, can't avoid it. Growing up, forget it!

If you know anyone with a 3d printer set up then its easy to print off letters, drawing them in TinkerCAD.
