Martina Flor Lettering Seminars/Classes?

Has anyone taken a workshop or class from her? I'm interested in taking the lettering seminar (8-week course) but it's a hefty commitment. Wanted to get some opinions from those who've already taken any classes from her.

If there are any other lettering workshops that you'd recommend, please let me know! I've already taken one of Ken Barber's workshops and really loved it.

Concept for a logo and I want to ensure it's clear what it says. Please reply and argue among yourselves :)

just tried to recreate this lettering type & im definitely overthinking it. especially the slant of the capital “A” lol. what specific books have tips on changing the axis of serif lettering? I looked through the lettering manual by Ken barber and unless I missed it I don’t think there was a lot about this.

Alphabet of the Wild: I is for Impa

I used a Rotunda dual stem alphabet to convey a sense of seriousness and to incorporate the detail of Impa’s hat.

I built an app that turns your handwriting into a real TrueType font — trace, build, and type with your own lettering

Hey everyone! I've been working on Scribbles.ink, an iOS app that lets you create a real, usable TrueType font from your own handwriting — directly on your iPhone or iPad.

How it works:

  1. Trace — Write your characters using Apple Pencil or your finger. You can draw each letter individually, write full words and let the app segment them, or write freely on a blank canvas with AI-powered character recognition.

  2. Build — The app generates a proper TrueType font with four weights (Light, Regular, Bold, Heavy). Pro users can fine-tune glyph metrics, kerning pairs, and even export variable font collections.

  3. Use — Test your font in a built-in playground where you can create shareable cards, install it system-wide on your device, or type with it using a custom keyboard. Export as .ttf to use on your computer.

What makes it different:

• Everything runs 100% on-device — no server uploads, no cloud processing. Your handwriting data never leaves your phone or iPad.

• Apple Pencil pressure sensitivity translates into natural stroke width variation.

• The freeform mode uses on-device Vision AI to recognize and segment characters from natural handwriting — you just write normally and the app figures out the letters.

• SVG import/export for people who want to bring designs from tools like Illustrator or Glyphs.

Pricing: The core experience (trace characters, build fonts, playground) is free. Plus ($4.99/mo) adds word tracing, font export, and device installation. Pro ($9.99/mo) adds freeform AI tracing, variable fonts, SVG support, glyph editing, and cursive connections. There's also a Pro Lifetime option for $129.99.

I have a few promo codes for free lifetime Pro access (redeemable on the US App Store only) — send me a DM if you'd like one.
