Castro Script


I was looking for something over at YouTube and I found this drawing site and one of the videos was for making Name Art.  I took the idea and used PSP to create name art similar to what I saw in the video.  You can see the Name Art video here. The YouTube channel is Draw So Cute.  When I learn to use my Pen Tool I would love to make some of her cute chibi-style characters.

For my name I used text size 72 with color black.  I duplicated the layer, flipped it, and moved it to mirror the first layer, then merged the two layers together.

To add the colors, I used the Magic Wand Tool to select inside the spaces where I wanted to add color, expanded the selection by 2 pixels, added a new layer below the black text and filled with color.  Repeat the process for adding color to more spaces.  The three colors I used are #00A0C6 (blue), #00BD13 (green), and #C00000 (red). After all the colors are added, I applied Meadow Studio's Coconutice Clear Glass (for SuperBladePro). I duplicated the iced colors layer and changed the blend mode on the duplicate layer to hard light to make the colors brighter.

I added a drop shadow to the black text layer of 2, 2, 25, 3, black.

I also made an avatar-sized image and rotated it 90 degrees left and another at 90 degrees right. I think it looks like some kind of tribal art.

And I also placed one on top of the other and now it kind of looks like an alien creature LOL.

If you have a go at this challenge I would love to see the names you create!

Love it. The colors are wonderful. I actually have a light table the I have had for years. I use to own a small Printshop back, way back in the day. It will be fun to try this at home and then I can scan it into psp when I get up and running.
 
Fun project!. I look forward to playing.
 
Hugs, Jossie

I just had to try this, it looked like so much fun!
I used the same colors as timber.  It is amazing how different each name looks.  I have loops and tails in my name so it is quite different.

After I did my name I duplicated it and mirrored it.  Then I tried one where I put them back to back.  I think this technique would make a good frame or border.

Thanks for sharing this timber!

Luvit_wingheart_CBOL_jam.gif Wow, Judy, your name turned out great!  Having letters with loops and tails is a little more challenging but it makes a more dramatic effect, I think.  I love the duplicated and mirrored tag!  It looks so "tribal" to me.

Thanks so much  for giving this technique a play, Judy, I sure did enjoy seeing your results!

Well, I had to make do with what I could. I used EC4000 Glass and added a simple Noise effect using PSP8. I will have to try this one again, for sure! :-]

I have been wanting to have a go at this again and I finally got down to do it. I used the bevel+glass idea in Eye Candy 4000 Glass Settings posted by Timber ;)

I must have been away when you posted your first results for this challenge, Karla.  I love all the colors you chose for your first tag and also the two-color version.  I think both of your tags have a glassy appearance .

For the two-color tag, did you have any particular reason why you added the pink color where you did?   It kind of reminds me of a fish.

Thanks for giving this challenge a play and for posting your results!   They are way cool .

I was actually trying to alternate with blue and pink but where I did that one pink, it flooded to the next space lol So, I ended up with that result. I also thought it looked like a fish and noticed I should have fixed the "point" - although, it does look like the fish has a little mouth LOL

Castro Script is the ultimate font for designers, art and design students and teachers who want to make a reference collection of symbols that cover almost any kind of graphic design. Castro Script is one of my favorite font to use on the web. You need to check this https://christchurchconcretedriveways.co.nz/ and get more new ways for new builkding materials. This font perfectly embodies what I love about typography and web design, namely the use of bold and large letterforms. I think you'll enjoy working with this free web font as much as I have.
