Every designer needs a variety of typeface styles that they can rely upon for every project. Usually a collection is built slowly as new fonts are purchased on an individual basis, but on rare occasions an opportunity arises to acquire a comprehensive library of top quality font families with huge savings. The Type Designer’s Luxury Font Library contains all the font styles you might need for your graphic design projects, including geometric sans-serifs, classy serifs, cool-looking display fonts, modern gothic families and elegant scripts. With a huge 98% discount slashing the price tag, this font library can be yours for just $29.
The style of a pen stroke can completely change the perception of a lettering piece. Smooth, flowing calligraphy comes across as elegant and ceremonial, whereas faster and more direct strokes generate more of a raw and energetic mood. In today’s showcase I present 45 great examples of brush lettering with attitude! These lettering pieces are drawn with quick, aggressive strokes that in some cases don’t even give the ink time to transfer from the brush or marker to the paper.
In today’s Adobe Illustrator tutorial I’m going to show you some useful techniques for creating colourful vector art with a 3D style.
