After the PS hanged, I started doing sketches... ;p
Also, because my drawing sucks, even more so on com, I am actually modifying a vector rather than drawing it, that's why using photoshop.
Main reason I'm using photoshop is cos I don't have any other software like Illustrator, etc. So I don't have a choice.
Anyway, I am most familiar with PS, although still very lousy.
OT a bit, what is the best way to make an image more fine/ slim?
I want to use this font in my logo but I want to make the letters look slimmer (less bold) and also modify it a bit.
Also, which brush in PS is good for such things? There are many brushes but I'm confused about what they do and what they are good for. With the default brush, it is quite hard to control and gives jagged lines, not smooth. How to make the edges smooth?
Best to trace every type out with the pen tool, and adjust the bezier curve one by one.. no short cut here.. or else go find some free font that has a finer letterform.
By tracing it out with the pen tool, you'll understand the type ligature a little better and this will consequently improve the whole aesthetics of the typography.
As for the brush, I don't use it to draw, only to paint and I only use it with a tablet. Pen tool is better to draw your shape, cos you can still do a transform if you need to unlike a raster paint image. If it helps, hold down shift if you want to paint a straight line. You'll need to click point A then move your mouse to point B and click again.
