Description Made for the designy part of my Typography class final for project 1. I designed a type based on Times New Roman (quite similar but with big spikey serifs) and then made this scorpion with it in Illustrator. No reference used, took about 1-2 hours.

This is pretty darn cool So all 26 alphabetical characters + symbols + numbers make up this scorpion eh? I love how the 7s make up the legs, and the question mark for the tail, and the brackets and Q(?) for the pincers

Yeah I used mostly sevens and a few 2's for the legs, and the pincers are made from Q's I think I used all the alphabet, I put heaps into his body lol. Thanks dude!

I would just like to state that this is incredible.

Nice use of 7s XD...what character are the mouthparts made of?

AustenMengler In reply to ParanoidNebula [2010-04-01 04:06:59 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I think the mouth parts were Q's and brackets '()'
