typeONE: final bitmap typeface









my final typeface was based on my third design.  i thought the design felt the most cohesive, complete, and felt the tightest in composition.
i switched the positive and negative because the subtleties needed to use only the negative space to create the font weren't coming through with the crossed toothpick unit.  the unit itself had a lot of white space, so more complex designs were lost in the ambiguity between units.
with some slight tweaking in the design and kerning, this is the final design











i also learned the value of a decent camera and a tripod.  in the end, having clearer shots reduced the hassle cleaning up and importing each letter into the composition.
