Now it looks like the lettering you would find in a cover of a pulp novel from the 60s.Acrónicohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08593205401892745201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-77243729103771243432015-06-06T17:19:53.373-04:002015-06-06T17:19:53.373-04:00Number 1Number 1Gwarhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15245346128436771591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-10849469048988815142015-06-06T13:10:45.307-04:002015-06-06T13:10:45.307-04:00#2 then #1 in that order#2 then #1 in that orders7610rahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02658417201343534248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-80110942261603122942015-06-06T11:56:56.519-04:002015-06-06T11:56:56.519-04:001 then 2, in that order :)1 then 2, in that order :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03033328932853253569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-34781506140353955952015-06-06T09:14:06.011-04:002015-06-06T09:14:06.011-04:00#1, only problem is that the heraldry is wrong sin...#1, only problem is that the heraldry is wrong since it's a painting from the Portugal-Castille war of 1383-85<br /><br />https://www.google.pt/search?q=crise+1383-85&espv=2&biw=1600&bih=805&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=8PByVevOBYfaUZ7LgdgG&ved=0CEsQsAQ#imgrc=_Jotapaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14462557108099378809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-67839804603371670952015-06-06T07:18:55.364-04:002015-06-06T07:18:55.364-04:001, 2, 3, in that order.1, 2, 3, in that order.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-37496130316707304082015-06-06T07:15:21.479-04:002015-06-06T07:15:21.479-04:00oneoneAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15473258406926509070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600947515654238699.post-74189887184679188412015-06-06T02:45:04.267-04:002015-06-06T02:45:04.267-04:00#1 but the weird glow and color gradations in the...#1 but the weird glow and color gradations in the logo gotta go.
