Let's see. Where to begin? No, it wasn't silkscreened, but it wasn't a crappy laser print either. At work, we have a big 4 color Canon. So it was printed on 12x18 100 lb. Matte Text stock. The glossy stock made it look like ass. I do wish I had access to a decent sreening setup. Richie, you're right. No attempt whatsoever to kern anything. With the leading all messed up as it was, I decided I liked the feel of it, and to be quite honest I'm just a little bit lazy. A bad habit I've picked at work where you get a project and bust it out as quickly as possible to make time for next three. Unfortunately, when I'm doing something for fun or for myself I tend to be almost as lax/hurried. Shame, shame on me.

i was at this show. the poster wasn't screened, just a laser copy. it would have looked way better screened, but still cool. good job, gabe.

And what's up with that "YF" ligature?

RichieGoodtimes :

I wouldn't have said anything about the kerning if the leading didn't look so intentional. I'm an asshole.

I'm waiting for the discussion on leading. Is the red circle the bottom of a bottle?

RichieGoodtimes :

I know you wouldn't have. I'm just being a pain in the ass.

None of the rules ever apply to me. Look at those AC combos...man...talk about default.

Richie - I thought it was inappropriate to comment on type anymore, or was that just me who's not allowed to comment on type anymore. maybe he meant to give it that unkerned look - relax and have another scone. :D

Caslon Antique all caps is a bitch to kern. I see you didn't bother attempting it.

that's odd. from viewing the thumbnail, i thought that this might be a bit on the pornographic side. i need to pull my head outta da gutter. nice work. i dig the faux-woodcut style.
