noticed i could also split up the colors for more of a riso look, which is fun!

my queen's POV when i think i'm checkmating, not seeing the bishop that's 1000000000 feet away.

screencap from the movie 'goodfellas', when tommy think's he's about to be a made man.

still enjoy using it, especially helvetica neue and the light variants. def easy to have a design feel colder, but I think with good hierarchy and kerning it’s usually solid.

ngl anonymous question: how do you feel about Helvetica?

ms. wendy@wendyleftmealone· Jun 14

take me away to some other land.

1-color variants that maybe i'll use somewhere!

i've been messing with the '3d materials' tab and having layers right over my usual art so there's some more texture, which could be something!

also hi new follows, welcome aboard! reminder that along with design commissions: i've experimented with typeface design for personal and commercial use! creative market: creativemarket.com/wendyleftmea... gumroad: wendymurphyonline.gumroad.com etc: linktr.ee/wendymurphyo...

type display for my LED typeface 'mass transit mono' (bold variant) in yellow over black. type is made using a circle grid, using larger and smaller dots to represent each glyph.

type display for my pixel typeface 'rose-tinted' (italic variant) in white and pink over a black background. type is created using a pixel grid, about 9px high.

type display for my electronic / segmented typeface 'levitate' in green over a black background. type is created using segments, and focusing on 45-degree movements and cuts.

type display for 'liquidize', a fluid + dotted typeface (350+ glyphs), in black text over grey. type is created using metaball shapes in a zig-zag pattern.

ms. wendy@wendyleftmealone· May 25

besides the type and some texture most of this was done thru illustrator - using a combination of the 'roughen' and 'zig-zag' effects to get a low-poly look without throwing anchor points down, and exporting at 480p with just 8ish colors allowed thru. then resampling thru photoshop.
