Handmade Lettering 32

Today's image is again pretty general in tone. I forgot when this was made, I'd say probably slightly after the Japan spring trip since the background gray is from a paint marker I bought there. I definitely forgot the context and am not even guessing that. There are some old skool glitter effects anyways! Small blue text in the bottom is more legible in reality but I suppose the scanner light angle flattened it somehow. Sorry about that. Made with the usual tools + the paint marker. Original size about 9,5 x 5 cm.

The Excel series continues (earlier posts here and here) with another blackletterish version. The lines at the letter endings on the upper part were possibly supposed to give more of a spiky look but it does look a bit hairy. Fortunately the lower word has amazing 3D shadow effects to take the attention away from the hair. I kind of like how the uneven letter heights and placing gives the words a slight expressionist typography look. Made with felt-tip, ball-point and gel pens. Original size about 8 x 6 cm.

It's time for the fabulous 30th posting. How time flies! Because of yesterday being team day at work this is a bit late from the usual schedule. On the other hand, there have been so many lapses from the usual schedule that I'm not really certain it exists anymore. Anyway, the word was made quite recently, I forget the original context though. The word itself doesn't give any clues. It's finnish and means "yes". The letterspacing is a bit uneven for such a short word but I promise to do better in the future. Made with ball-point and gel pens on top of very nice Posca paint marker (or what the word is for those). Original size about 10 x 6,5 cm.
