Show & Tell / Phone doodles
« Last post by liquidpope on April 24, 2024, 03:36:35 PM »Howdy, y'all! Here's a couple of doodles I made while on the phone and in meetings.
Probably 20 to 30 minutes a day, maybe 8 or 10 weeks.
All dots, made with a .005 micron, which is sooooo tiny.
Not really "art", but it's fun to do, very zen, and kinda cool looking.

Copperplate, Engrosser's Script, Roundhand Calligraphy / Re: A German business card, AD 1895
« Last post by Vintage_BE on April 22, 2024, 03:30:50 PM »Here is another sample of German “Copperplate-like”writing. It appears on a family heirloom, a board game that my wife used to play with her late parents (and that we now play with our kids). I believe it dates from the 60s of last century.
The game (“Der Weg zum Erfolg”, “The Road to Success”) was sponsored by the German version of Steve Martin, Loriot.
