Artist's Comments

Typographic Anatomy (MUCH LARGER UNDER DL.)
This chart was made to be printed and used for reference, not for strictly viewing on the computer (Bodoni isn't such a great screen font). I wanted it to look like a classroom poster, or one of those ones that came in the mail.
I also have an unwrinkled version because, well, sometimes I like to crumple my own posters. <3 Interested parties can download that here.

I made this as sort of a gift for Deviantart, like a tutorial, but more of a handy-hints type thing. It looks really easy, I know, but I put a lot of thought into it. Also, I had to get this done before I could do anything else, get it out of my system. I'll probably be posting it on Valiant in the freebies section pretty soon.

So, any comments or thoughts would be greatly appreciated, even if you aren't a GD student. Thanks <3

A pessimist might say, "The glass is half empty..." but I would say, "Nah, the other half just went out and got a life, which is what I advise you to do. Sitting in here telling me how full that glass is, is no way to live yours."

Nooooo, the nightmares are all flooding back DX

Naw, typography is awesome and a very interesting study. The use of it in many forms can often make or break a presentation, even if most people don't understand why. Sadly, I don't think enough people in the art community appreciates the importance of type and the effectiveness of its use. This is a really cool piece, brings back many memories |D

Oh I love this ;uuuu; I'd really like to take a typography class eventually; it seems like it would be really useful, if not interesting (but hopefully it would be that too XD).

Hope you're doing alright ;3; <3

It's so awesome to see something like this on dA, first of all because few people today still take typography seriously, and second because good reference for typographic anatomy is hard to come across. Excellent work! :heart:
