xe A Stroke of Geneus1
Share:
-
Inspired by the works of geneus1 (especially Calligraphique). I tried to go for sort of a mixture of black letter, chancery, and heavy metal. I love the way the & turned out (combining the E and t. For those of you who don't know, the ampersand is based off of the Latin word for "and", et), and especially the K and J. By far, this is the best FontStruction I have ever, ever, EVER, EVER made. And probably ever will make. -

The bricks fit as if they were always there. Like revealing a beautiful statue in a hunk of marble.
Bravo.
smart brick combination
@Upixel: The brick combination wasn't entirely my idea... The swash down at the bottom was inspired by Calligraphique.
@K_a_m_i: See the picture... I just made two composites, and that (coupled with the 2x2 filter technique) allowed me to make a fairly realistic serif techniques. Like I said, I was inspired by the serifs in Calligraphique, by geneus1.
@meek: THANK YOU! As always, this is an honor unlike any other.
Thanks SO MUCH, geneus! I'm actually planning on a better version than this. I think a comment from you was enough to spur me on to make another, similar font.
I think I'm going to give this one some serious renovation as well; I actually feel like this could have been a lot better, although it still is my best font. Ah, I'll just release the other font that I was planning, and call it something else that doesn't have a pun. I'm really grateful that you commented on such a lowly fontstructor as myself; it makes me feel like I'm a pro or something (which is a laugh).
I'll stop rambling now. Thanks a lot, geneus, and I hope you keep dishing out masterpieces. By the way, I won't begrudge you for taking a while to comment. I'm guilty of that myself.
Thanks as well to fk. Sorry again for taking a while to comment.
