[GrimJack]

Ya, ok, so a wee bit of boredom crept in tonight, and I started in on it. Edit - now completed, see the bottom of this post for the download link.

This has now been completed. Download and enjoy!

Dammit... just spotted the bug in the A. I'll fix that...

 

[Tanya]

OMG YAY!

I can't wait until this is done, this is awesome!

I want to give you some help though... bet you thought you only had SUPRA to work off of huh? Well Toyota made a CELICA XX banner sticker for limited edition XXs in 1985, and of course, I have pics for you!

As you can see, the "C" isn't like how you'd think it was.

 

[GrimJack]

That will be easy to change.

 

[Tanya]

Also, I think the width of the thicker parts of the letters, such as "B" should be the same thickness as the other part... like this:

You can see how it's done in the "R" and "P" in Supra

 

[TopNotch2JZ]

And if its the same "bug" I see in the A then you have probably already fixed it, but its supposed to have a rounded corner on that inside part on the right side.

Agreed. I had it set up that way earlier, but I had to revert a bunch of steps and I forgot to respace the right side.

That's the one I was talking about.

You going to make this a TTF?

 

[OfnaRcR4]

Hell yeah, can't wait.

 

[GrimJack]

You going to make this a TTF?

You bet. Same as the Mk3 one I posted a while back. Be a while yet before it gets to that stage, I need to draw out all the letters & numbers first, then put them one to a page and export each letter to the TTF file.

I'll post updated pictures as I do groups of characters for feedback.

 

[GrimJack]

Some more letters... and some fixes.

 

[GrimJack]

By the way, most of these letters are going to be easy. But some...

I have NFI how to make these:

KQVX7

Dunno if I should make different ones for the 1/I or 0/O either. I'm leaning towards not.

 

[Tanya]

I'd agree, keep the same ones for 1 and 0.

What you have so far looks amazing! I agrwee, the next letters look like they're going to be a bitch. Good luck, lol

 

[GrimJack]

Latest revision. Not THAT happy with the K, but I tried other ways and they sucked too.

 

[Tanya]

aww, it are gone, didn't get to see it.

 

[GrimJack]

Doh!

Fixed linkage.

 

[Tanya]

Doesn't look too bad. I just think the right side of the K needs to be expanded a bit more to match the width of the left side.

Also, I believe most of the letters need to be of the same width. The "M" I think needs to be shrunk in a little, "I" and "J" should be the only exception.

Everything else looks great so far!

 

[A-to-the-J]

Same as the Mk3 one I posted a while back.

i will search for this MKIII TTF you speak of. other than that... :bigthumb: looks good!

EDIT: found it and DL'd it!

 

[86andhalfWhiteGirl]

wish my brain worked this good.... in the late hours of the evening....lol:naughty:

I tried it with the thin M, it didn't look so hot. I'll post up a picture of the thin one though, you can tell me what you think.
