A Grid Font: Starting
So no one ever told me how hard it was to create a font. I already figured it was a lot of work but I never really thought about it. So when I was assigned a project to create a bitmap font using a grid I automatically started to freak out.
Ya know, stressing, pulling out my hair, all that jazz.
I did not even have an idea of what my bitmap font could look like.
How could I possibly think of an idea for something that has been done so many times before me? I was really struggling with concepts about how to be original and to make matters worse I HAVE TO USE A GRID!
I have to use a grid and it must be the whole cube, not half cubes. A little depressing.
So,
I went to where I always go to get inspiration for a project:
Pinterest.

After that I got a little excited about what I could do for my project.
I will be doing some sketches and preliminary ideas for my font on the grid and will post my process as I go.
Until next time…
