It's based on one of the Neon fonts, I can't recall the exact name but whatever font you use wont have the joined up lettering and the loop around the 'O'. So I'm thinking it was possibly one of Mr Haro's own bits of artwork. It takes ages to redraw too!!

Cheers Dave, will see what I can do.  Was hoping to do my name with the R looping round and over the Y but might be a bit difficult with my limited software tools  :LolLolLolLol:

Here's the one I made, I gave up trying to alter the font and just drew it from scratch in Illustrator. It took fooking ages! :LolLolLolLol:
