Let there be Ligatures

I wrote down the word first in pencil & tried to create a connection between the letters to form some ligatures as it appears on the "L+G, T+R & E+S", then I started doing some sketches with a brush pen (Sakura Koi), after this I sketched the word with a pencil & the final steps are taking the sketch to the illustrator & make some edits & tweaks on photoshop et voila.
