Hi Heads,

Take a look at this font and see if it looks familiar. It may be a font that has been manipulated by a designer. I need to make some more letters that match.
Thanks in Advance

Yep it looks close to brody script! You could probably manipulate brody to look like fairly easily!

Good luck !

I don't know for sure Mike. Is this one of those "brush slingers vrs. vinyl flingers ??!! What are you trying to incite?

Just for kicks, I digitized the lettering to see how long it would take. About 45 minutes to cut-paste-click-drag-etc. And now I have it for future use. Granted, it could use a little more tweaking, but it's probably close enough to meet the clients needs.

Dave, I can E-mail you an EPS if you'd like...

WOW,

That's Cool Neveman! NOw Lets see Mike hand paint it!

At first I thought this was Burgess Script ( a Gerber font ) Then I thought this is a font from Sign DNA, but you guys are right, there are inconsistances in the letter h and the letter e to make this a hand job

You guys really are greatest, no matter what the say about you at those letterhead meets!

45 mins. huh?
I agree with Mike...fonts like these are so easy for a good brush slinger that there would be no contest....the computer would lose every time...unless of course there were more than two copies involved, then the computer would win. Hand me another Grain Belt.

Could you have done the original though?
It's easy to manipulate anything once it's in the computer.

Hey Terry, I'm just havin' fun

I could probably hand letter it. I would have to trace it an pounce it, as I haven't had as much brush time as others. Or I might lay it out using a double line technique. I know either way that it would take me longer than digitizing it.

I admire and respect the brush...I wish I had more time to practice, but we are all in different situations.

You blew me away at Mark's last year and I almost get discouraged when I see such talent. But I turn that around and try to get ENcouraged to improve.

Like Mark says "you rock bubba!"

Hi Guys,

Neat work there Neveman,

The reason I need some letters that matched is to follow the "theme" already started by the designer, who I can't find!

But if Terry and Mike think they can give me a HAND JOB faster....well I'm making 1/2 inch letters for a menu and I don't think anyone can give that good of HAND JOB.

opps: "Hand Job" refers to "hand painting" and you have a very dirty mind if you think it means something else!

Actually Dave 1/2" letters is even better...give me a good #4 brush and a little time for the layout (yardstick and stabilo) and I can letter the copy in script faster than you could ever cut and weed!
No brag-Just fact! hehehe!
