blackletter
THE EXPERIMENT:

  • A pixelated parody of an ancient script font called German Blackletter was created by tracing an example alphabet, using black squares on a grid.
  • For #2, this was given rounded corners, then multiplied with green stroke colors to create the “glow”.
  • #3: Playing around with the “dashed line” feature of the Stroke options, using a 1-pixel dash at various spacings and stroke weights.

VR LINK OF THE DAY: Adi Da’s “Da Plastique” — The controversial guru is also a phenomenal digital artist — Who knew?!
