My Own Type

After experimentng with different fonts I decided to use a font that looked like it was melting (bottom right that says acid) because there is a lot of description of taking the drug called LSD aka Acid and there are hallucinations mentioned frequently in the book.

This is my typeface finished. I decided to use flowers for the dots because the book title has the word 'flower' in it so it has good relevance. It also juxtaposes the melting drug type with the use of flowers because it is more of an innocent image.

I scanned the image into photoshop, adjusted the threshold and played around with the colours. I decided on purple.

I then changed the background colour to green to complement the purple, here is my final type.\

I was really pleased with the final outcome because I felt that it gave a slimy effect or melting.
