This phones loading speed is a fucking joke

@SUPER MALE VITALITY™

ok back

This is considered a laymans guide to catholic dogma so it should answer all the fundamental questions

That's a cool copy whatever that is, having a hard time dating it visually, probably 60s judging by the font and formatting, right?

63 I believe

lmao I'm so autistic

Book collecting is a great way to fill your head with absolutely useless knowledge about how paper ages and what years font styles and printing methods were prevelent, and the kinds of bindings and such

You should learn how to make your own fancy book covers with reliefs etc

bruh I wish, hold up, lemme nab some of my favorites from my collection

can't be that hard. You take some measurements, create some kind of hard rectangle, put some things on ir or decorate it in any way, then add it to the bindings

I mean, strictly speaking yeah, but in the same way that anyone can piss their name into the snow, it's a lot of work to make a truly beautiful binding

amazing

That second one is in the best shape of any book I've ever saved, it's almost like it's been sitting on a shelf since 1890

Do you draw, by the way? I saw a pack of pencils

Not really, I just dabble in everything, I do a bit of calligraphy but I'm not much of an artist

I do calligraphy too, but I kind of abandoned it for a long time, I have to practice a bit someday

MAinly blackletter

Tbh I gave up on remembering names and specifics after I finished the class

I tend to just go with whatever sort of lettering comes out easiest for whatever I'm doodling

I recommend crosshatching for a nice aesthetic

I do like the look for blocks, I tend to go for just using broad chisel pens though, my attempts at actual art letters tend to fall flat

Show us something someday

I tend to just stick to words, lemme see if my portfolio is around I can drop some samples

Here's one I did doodling in a class a while back

Nice letters, but random decoration

(don't expect much form doodles of course)

Yeah like I said, not great in the way of art lmao

Needs a big first letter

This one was an actual assignment, the first one was more me making up poetry to use up letters, this is what I turned in for that alphabet
