   Superb. Beautiful. Stellar. And as many other complimentary adjectives as one can think of. Love the dramatic curve, and the dot of the 'i' is genius. Can you tell that I love it? ;-)

    Thanks guys.

    LOL @Simon. Thanks. Once I get this into Illustrator I want to adjust that star shape a bit and make the non-'i' dots slightly smaller and the overall shape a little wonkier.

    Great looking type Jeffrey! Have you thought about making the 'i' dot just a touch larger than the rest? Don't know how that would look, but just a thought...

    Thanks Michael. Yeah, emphasizing the 'i' dot was what I meant in the previous comment. Glad you were thinking the same thing. :-)

    Love seeing process work. Can't believe this is a 'rough'

    @Jacqui: Thanks! This is actually a stage two rough. I scanned a thumbnail sketch first, then enlarged and printed it so it could be traced and cleaned up for this version.

    @Matt: Thanks!

    Beautiful lettering! Such a nice flow and the last 'l' mirroring the lower curve of the 'C' is a great touch. This is a stunning series - I think I'm between this one and the 3rd one. Look forward to seeing where it goes!

    As great as your finished lettering work is, there is something magical about seeing something like this in pencil.
