Typography choices - My own character set

I started experimenting with different styles. I tried sans serif, serif, script and display typefaces. I finally chose to do my character set as the bottom typeface. I finally decided on this style because I thought that it had the most relevance to my book as it is meant to look like tree branches.

As you can see I have try to make this character set have relevance to my book cover by infusing nature and tree branches in my design. I may actually use this character set for my book cover.

I then scanned in my character set and adjusted the threshold. Thankfully all of my lines were joined up so all I had to do was fill them with colour. I chose green because it has relevance to my book cover as the story is set in the woodlands. Although my character set was inspired by branches, I didn't fill them in with brown as I thought that would be quite dull and not very eye-catching.

Here are some screenshots showing the steps I did to colour my character set:

After scanning, I opened the image in photoshop and adjusted the threshold so it was purely just black and white.

Here are some screenshots to show what I did:

After scanning them in I opened the file on photoshop and adjusted the threshold so the image was just purely black and white. After doing this, I used the magic wand tool and removed the white. So it looked like the image above.

 I then filled the shapes with the same green colour that I have chose for my character set.

I removed the outline so it looked like the above image.

I decided to name my character set Twiggy type.
