Samuel_94 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Brothers and sistas (g)u(d)nite! I'm bringing for you all, excited Coldplayers with great expectations, a updated replica of Coldplay's LP5 era font. One month ago I jumped in a amazing and mysterious adventure aiming to recreate on my own the new font design (since I was never able to find it ready to use). Unpretentiously I uploaded for the first time the creepy result I was able to produce to dafont.com. The font I called "Every Truetype is a Wisefont", after one month, surprisingly hit almost ten thousand downloads. In respect to all those who had that, although sweaty, awful pixelized and misguided curves, and taking advantage from the new album art release, I dive in at the deep and turbid sea of the font creating once again. This time I must say I had a more satisfactory result since I'm getting technical each time I go through this journey again. Yyyyyyada yada yada... Well, I ask you to help me testing it and to give me tips and suggestions before I send the update to dafont. Hope you enjoy it and I'm waiting for some feedback, please! Oh, and if anyone finds it useful, I may make a tutorial about how to adjust the characters kerning in PS to make the font look more symilar to CDP releases. Thats it. WHEW! There we go: ETIAW.TTF Have fun! :lol: Thank you for taking the time to share your excellent work with all of us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teco Posted September 24, 2011 Author Share Posted September 24, 2011 hey there, folks. i was willing to deliver the new version of the font this weekend (actually i thought i would do it much before) but due to personal issues (a.k.a. no much of free time) i'm afraid that this is not happening. i could even make it available this sunday, but it would be much of an unaccomplished work and i'm not the kind of person who does a crappy work and feels proud of it. i am really working every night over the improvement, but im not a designer or something like that, im just a presumptuous adventurer that jumped into this deep and complex job, so i find myself lost very often and it is being a tough experience here. there are some symbols to design yet, and i expect to remake the kerning and the contours also. i'm sure some of you wouldn't mind getting a unperfect font here, but i spent so much time over it already that i cannot find right to consider it finished when it is not and just some extra work would finally do it. i ask you some more time and i hopefully will be able to put it on in the next saturday, october 1st, the day of coldplay live gig @ rock in rio. is that alright? i apologize and hope you'll hold your excitement on for one more week! sorry guyz. 'll be back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebloom98 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 haha that font is great i know you are most likely going to do another update but you should make a non filled in version numbers and textsymbols aka () and stuff... you could also maybe make this font have no symbols and a seperate font for the symbols :) but thats just a thought :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
