Ive been hand drawing my lettering which takes more time but looks a hell of a lot better than typing out some pristine, stale font. Just pointing it out since it's that extra detail people might not notice.
This is the Leroy Lettering font that was used in old 50s horror comics. It's highly legible but has a charm to it I really like.
The Leroy Lettering System was a guide letterers would follow or trace by hand, letter by letter, to build each word in those oldschool comics. You couldnt just type, letters were drawn. I created my own digital leroy lettering guide to mimic this approach and here's how it's turning out.
Let me know what you think.
