G'day everyone again, this time I'm starting to post my street signs and man, there will be a lot of them in the end ! :grin:
First, an overview of the first lot of them.....
Posted Image
Now closer view of some roadwork signs (more to come)......
Posted Image
Closer look at 'Road Closed'.....
Posted Image
Closer look at 'Roadwork Ahead' (I also have printed but no yet made up 'Roadwork End' signs).....
Posted Image
Closer look, and look real close.....No parking here ! ..........
Posted Image
This one might not end up on light pole as it maybe to high up and I want to reserve those studs for street name signs.
I just have to figure out lower poles that are not too big and bulk - hence unrealistic !
Comments welcome and keep on bricking ! :sweet:

P.S. (Posting more signs a.s.a.p.)

Great signs, perfect.

For lower signs you could use the setup used in the new traveler impulse set. It has the 2 x 2 tile sign base (as seen in many sets) with the new 1 x 1 brick with stud on side and then attaches a 2 x 2 tile with computer screen on the side stud.
You could easily stick a 1 x 2 tile on that stud and make it work.

Thanks 'jonwil' for your reply :sweet: , yeah I think you maybe right that new brick with a 1x1 tile on top to make it neat and tidy would be the way to go, again thanks !
Oh yeah, keep on bricking ! :sweet:
