I played with this photo a bit & am pretty happy with the way it turned out. This is another one of the new kits.

Nice looking photo, but as a constructive comment: Where do you got the idea from to do the "Cave au vin" sign? This means "wine cellar", but signs placed on the house corner are normally signaling a roads name, so this is a bit strange.
As a name for a Café it would be ok, but placed like that... not really.

So the question would be, what did you intend to do?

Claude,

Thanks for the advice. Notice the old sign above the wine sign. The building is suppossed to be a commerial building, a cafe.

Randy,
I may have explained myself a bit wrong (or didn't look twice) , but your "Cave aux vins" sign is more typical for street name plates. In fact, the name *cave aux vins" would in your setup fit perfectly in the above hanging sign.
The other one would typically be named "rue de ....."

I tinkered with the composition & effects a bit. I like this one better.
