Hey guys, thank you for welcoming me to the group. My name is Kenny Loup and I have been building scale models for 40+ years. I am a commercial artist by trade. I supervise the sign manufacturing department along with creating and illustrating all the safety posters at our parish (county) public works department. I come by the sign business honestly as I am the son of an old fashioned sign painter. I'm a little rust but can still hold my own with a lettering brush. I've been married to my wonderful wife for the last 25 years. Together we have a wonderful 13 year old son that is a walking talking miracle. He was the reason I created Gator's Paint Masks and Gator's Grip Glue. When I'm not making signs, masks or glue I am working on a model, creating vinyl graphics and hand painted signs for friends and helping train service dogs. We have 4 fur kids, all German Shepherds. One is my son's service dog for seizure assistance and TBI and the other is mine for bipolar anxiety and depression along with PTSD. We are also board members of a local non-profit that provides service dogs for veterans at no cost to the veteran.
