Pialay Script is Plus

Pialay Script is here

I wanted to make something kind of resembling late victorian advertising typography. So, heres that. I'll probably continue making edits as time goes on.

I cannot tell you how long it took me to make this font. Actually, I can, took me hours. Seems like that's normal when it comes to making fonts since errors are ALWAYS there. But oh well, this is a WIP and I'm asking for any of you who may have stumbled upon my font or downloaded it to give me feedback in the comments below. Thanks :)

This is my first fontstruction, created whilst studying graphic design at UWE Bristol. I experimented using script brushes and calligraphy on Procreate and also tried to incorporate some of my own handwriting to make it more personal. The font is blocky and cursive to represent how people see hope and good in the bad. Our paths in life are never smooth sailing.

A script designed for the conlang of 'Ȑiþȑa̷în'.

The language of Ȑiþȑa̷înwas created at Farnad by a joint effort of Harlastes and Rakiana specifically for the use of the new ‘nation’ taking form from surviving Hyntellar, Aignar and Oumda peoples, who were later collectively known as the Ȑa̷inðâl (Ȑiþȑa̷în: ‘the agency of the world’). As a language, it was designed principally for morphemic elegance and semantic density while using the aesthetic phonemic preferences of its creators and intended speakers, perhaps inspired by the logico-mathematical concept of ‘elegance’ taught at Cynkyallat (Khalaris), Tain and Icoras. As a result, the range of consonants and vowels is relatively small, while also being highly inflected; making extensive use of suprafixes – where the first vowel-sound of a word is modified to change its grammatical function – and limited use of more standard suffix-inflection. In particular, the semantic density of Ȑiþȑa̷în made it ideal for transcription onto valuable or rare writing media as well as possessing a high level of concision in spoken form. Its most celebrated features were used in philosophy, where widespread suprafixing meant that singular concepts tended to retain their essential form regardless of grammatical function and in debate where complex ideas could be put over remarkably quickly. However, its suprafixional grammar also required excellent diction and enunciation from its speakers, precipitating a rather unique oral culture.

‘Ȑiþȑa̷în’is a compound word from the phrase ȑīþ ȑa̷în, which literally means ‘the speech of agency’ or ‘agency’s speech’ – relating to the important concept of ‘civilisation’ or ‘the agency of a people’ in the culture of Farnad. Ithas five cases, five persons, five tense-aspects, and two numbers in its inflectional system, while gender and, when necessary, mood, are conveyed lexically and through word order.

Version 1 of the Lucarian script font is out!
View the original script here: https://www.omniglot.com/conscripts/lucarian.htm

HERE'S HOW TO USE THE FONT:
d, h, j, l, m, n, r, s, t and z will give you the corresponding letters in full form.
b, f, g, k, p and q give you the truncated form of those letters. Uppercase versions send out their full forms.
Type c, S and Z for ch, sh and zh respectively.
a, o, e, i, y and u give you the corresponding vowels, while A, O and U give you ae, oe and uu respectively.
Type ' for the glottal stop letter with both sides truncated, use < and > for that letter with just the left side and the right side respectively, and = gives you the full letter.
The comma, period, question mark and exclamation mark gives you the corresponding punctuation.

GOSPEL ANGLOS

A insular half-uncial or insular majuscule script style typeface project that is inspired by ancient celtic bookhand & manuscripts.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The project is aiming at solidifying a number of different insular script styles. The main goal is to create a single typeface that includes about everything required to replicate the decorative writing style seen in ancient celtic manuscripts.(except for the ornamental decoratives)

The font, though essentially a bi-linear or majuscule insular half-incial script, in reality is a combination of different styles and complementary lettersets. Each carefully designed for specific purpose.

For example, it includes a more decorative Anglo-Saxon-script capital letter, perfect for headline text or book bindings. These actually include a small number of short ascendin / descending letters, but it remains mainly a majuscule. Then there is a complete insular style lowercase set, but which resembles a more traditional style lowercase letterform. And instead of being proportional sized, these reflect the cap-height, remaining faithful to the bi-linear nature of the script.

Besides all that, there is a set of glyph-alternates for most of the Anglo-Saxon capitals, as well as numerous random stylistic glyph alternates scattered througout some other various unicode blocks.  Providing more than enough options to make variations.

To top it all off, I started making a set of more decorative lombardic initial letters, perfect for decorating paragraphs.

(This remains a WIP for now, as I am still experimenting aound with different styles and bits to narrow down the right one that suits this total package)

I like how some of these characters turned out, but many are jiust ideas and not yet reached their definitive forms. But this set proved a lot more difficult than I had anticipated. So,

Any suggestions helping me to complete the full set are very much welcome..

The major recources and guidelines for the creation of this project mainly evolved around the two medieval celtic manuscripts: 

"Book of kells" and "Liɴdisfarne Gospels"

-----------------------------------------------------------------

It has grown quite a bit already so far, but remains a WIP.

So beware of very little overall polishing or kerning.

The overall design has quite some rough character, even more so with the insular lowercase set, that obviously was not aimed at smooth edges. Actually the oposite, sort of trying to replicate that rough look seen with many scribes from that era.

But I would love to hear your opinions (or suggestions for that matter) on the work so far. I can really use a little refreshing vibes for this at this point.

;)

Cheers.

My smallest cursive font.

A semi connected script style font design. It is losely based in the lettering seen on a poster design by German designer/painter Ottomar Carl Joseph Anton. (image shown in comments)

I completed the full alphabet, I tried to incorporate the features from the provided letters the best I could while creating the remaining missing characters.

It is a semi connected script style lettering, so certain characters are deliboratly disconnect and some aren't. For example the Uppercase string is almost completelty disconnected, whereas most of the lowercase characters connect. This can also be seen in the original Ottomar poster.

For the lowercase characters that connect there has been made a alternative glyph that is disconnected and adjusted to make a more pleasing flow and better looking breaks. These are located in the Unicode Block “Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms”.

It contains both proportional oldstyle (default) & lining numerals, which are located in the Unicode Block “Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms” as well.

I hope you like it!

cheers

It took me so long damn it
