A bit of hand drawn typography with a vintage feel. This work formed part of one of my Masters projects (which I'll be posting a few of) and represented the more traditional approach to illustrative type, where the main illustrative/decorative elements are quite separate to the type itself.

I'm pretty happy with the top and bottom bits, I'm sure I can reuse those one day :P

Follow me on Facebook for a more compelling and rich Simanion experience: [link] :lol:

This could find its way onto a bottle of booze, easily. As I am drunk right now, that is my highest compliment I can bestow on any work of art. It really is good.
