Can I get a yeehaw?
I created my first usable display typeface using the Fontself plug-in in Illustrator. Cosmos Noir is inspired by retro-futurism and the Space Western genre, meshing together influences from old sci-fi film posters and traditional western embellishments.
Created for Typography II in Fall 2020.
