I chose to utilize the font Gabriola for my Fontbot. I sketched a robot that was flying, and positioned some of the elements in the same graceful way that I feel this font comes across. I utilized different letters with similar shapes to maintain a sense of balance, while not using the same letters for the same feeling.
Digital Typortrait- I chose to do a typortrait of Tom Ellis, and focus on his role as Lucifer. I utilized darker sections of newspaper clippings, and some ads from horror movie sections in older newspapers. When I finished the form of Lucifer I used photoshop to give him black wings.
