Description FINALLY. If this doesn't improve my typing speed three-fold, i don't know what will.

Anyways, it's a treefrog! Trying my hardest to make this typography as realistic as possible! Lotsa colours (maybe too many, was a killer to fill each alphabet individually), lotsa textures, and lotsa FUN!

Almost one week of work, hope you'll enjoy it.
(why not full view it to see each alphabet? lol)

4th place in 'Sept07 HoPe FoR textART competition [link]

Spasticflags719 In reply to ??? [2007-09-12 14:41:51 +0000 UTC]

It's quite good!

Definitely not something I would have the patience for, though I do really like your other one better because you play more with the distortion of the word rather than repeating tiny, tiny letters - that begins to bridge the gap between type and bitmapping. Maybe a mix of both styles would send it to a new level.

But really it's very good, I'm just giving out feedback. The shading is pretty much on the mark!

fuzzyzebra In reply to Spasticflags719 [2007-09-12 15:04:56 +0000 UTC]

yup i really agree, dun feel bad!
i very much prefer a more "abstract" feel to an art piece. i dun really like realism. i was like "oh crap this aint what i'd thought it'll turn out like" when i was halfway through... lesson learnt! NEVER EVER WORK with size 6 font on A3. haha.

wookieinmashoo In reply to ??? [2007-09-07 16:07:29 +0000 UTC]

I'm in typography and I currently find it uninteresting, but this is amazing. I thought it was a drawing untill I fullviewd it. I can tell something like this would have demanded a lot of attention and you did such a great job. The frog is very realistic looking indeed.
My typography teacher doesn't like DA and doesn't like the new "up start" "arts" such as fantasy, anime, etc. But I feel I have to show him this. I really would like to know what he thinks of it. Do you know of any other people on DA who do typography art?

lol wow, thx! sure, i'd like to see what your teacher thinks too

hmm... abt others in typography, im nt too sure, but u can always browse around in the typography section of DA, there are some people there you might like to chekc out

wookieinmashoo In reply to fuzzyzebra [2007-09-10 17:30:16 +0000 UTC]

I showed it to my teacher and he and I are both wondering how you did it, though he found the frog less interesting than I did. He's really biased when it comes to DA for some reason
I did check out some other typography works, but I didn't find any like yours

lol, that's so awesome, the leave's text seems like it's painted, while the frog looks like it was all text color!

quick question though, why's the eye on the frog full red when the rest is typography?

anyhow, i love it, brilliant must've took you forever!!

fuzzyzebra In reply to Nyctophobic-Jester [2007-09-07 04:52:14 +0000 UTC]

lol! well to answer, i did try to do i in lettering as well, but when its done that way the alphabets make this huge mess with the holes and spacings and it looks like the frog would be suffering from some mutated form of cataracts or sumthing.. cloudy, bumby, uneven weird eyes.. which is why i used a fill instead of the lettering. same thingy went for the zebra as well. hope it answers
