Hi Ondrew,

I’ve added for you a kind of compilation of all 5 plates high SNOT letterings you can see on BrickShelf :



These kind of lettering is highly represented in minilands (see the LL California pictures in lego-designer BS gallery) and recently misterzumbi presents us a very nice (WOW - hi swami) Maersk lettering : http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=161015

SNOT is not easy. You can prefer a Stud Out approach. Unfortunately, less than 10 plates high letters lead to an almost unreadable lettering :



You can also read this article http://www.freelug.org/article.php3?id_article=391 about lettering with further links.

Hope that helps.

Didier
