I’ve been working on this for the past few days, tweaking the letterforms here and there. It’s just an experiment with Photoshop and typography. I’ve been trying to design a logo for myself with my name but haven’t been happy with the results so far. I’m not fully pleased with this either, but I think it’s kinda cool anyway. I based it on Bodoni although I don’t know why ’cause I don’t really like that typeface. I also realized that my surname is horrible for design – those three oddly spaced ascenders amidst letters at the regular x-height and a captial T which makes kerning and proper spacing a pain in the ass. Bleh. First name isn’t bad though.
The photo of the stars is from here (I wish I could capture something like this). The constellation Leo is visible in it, which happens to be my sign, although I only used this image in particular ’cause it’s so clean and of good quality for a space photo (most aren’t).
View at it’s largest for full impact.
