Struggling to find just the right font to make a striking title or drop cap for a project? Maybe what you need isn’t a font at all, but custom lettering from a source like handmadefont.com, where you can buy high-quality lettering in an incredible variety of shapes from cucumbers to concrete, flowers to fur, diamonds to dust bunnies.
Even though they’re referred to as “fonts”, these letters come in the form of high-resolution Photoshop images or vector Illustrator files. They’re perfect for use as single letters or a couple of words, but setting an entire story in one of these styles might be like, um, watching grass grow.
You can purchase single letters for 15 euro, or whole letter sets for € 70.
