Hey everyone!
I'm slowly building out a calligraphic stencil typeface for a client – based on a piece of lettering I originally completed for myself. I recently realized it was somewhat influenced by my first typeface drawn in the
[email protected] program which can be seen here:
http://typedrawers.com/discussion/1250/student-critique-display-face#latestI'm at the point where I'd love some thoughts and feedback on what seems out of place, what needs work, etc.
Currently, I feel the lowercase is actually in a decent place with the _f_ , _x_, and _z_ needing more work. My caps need loads more fine-tuning but I think the overall idea / structure might be there. Most likely will be rethinking the _K_ construction or at least tweaking it some more because it feels out of place. Spacing needs work across the board too.
Anyway, keen to hear your thoughts as always!

Yeah! I've made some edits to the _f_ especially since that last post and I think it may be working better now. I'm trying to get this _f_ to work without the descender to help it feel a bit more modern. Good thoughts on the _z_ that's something I have yet to attempt! Could definitely work that way and luckily the _z_ is usually the oddball character that I could get away with breaking the "rules" a bit
Thanks for the thoughts! I definitely agree. Those letters have been a struggle to get them to work nicely...Need to explore them further!
