Skinage: Berthold Bodoni Old Face

-

another skinage, after such such a long time. im loving this one. hopefully it won't fade till the evening ends. after taking 2 weeks of type class, im so into free-handing awesome fonts like this one: Berthold Bodoni Old Face.

U P D A T E D --

Since the tail of my R wasn't drawn correctly (it needs a bolder curve and it supposed to have smaller teardrop, with longer square-tipped serif on the stem), i redraw the tail and this is what came out. the overall looked fine, but it's not a perfect bodoni old face because of how thick my R is. Still, i liked it. It's like a finer Claredon Roman with a Bodoni look.

i retrace it with waterproof eyeliner, for extra protection.

    temporary tats is the thing. ha4

Awal tahun kemarin aku jatuh hati dengan seseorang dan hari ini aku mempertanyakan apakah lebih baik berteman aja dengan pria ini. Lucu ya, betapa cepatnya hati ini bisa berubah. Di satu sisi aku lega logika ku sudah kembali mencuat, naik ke permukaan laut endorfin yang perlahan surut. Realitasnya, pasang yang surut menunjukkan kotornya pantai hatiku. Banyak sisa-sisa sampah dari masa lalu; ngerasa nggak layak dapet perhatian, takut ditinggal, takut ditolak, takut disakiti. Hal-hal yang ku kira sudah ku buang jauh-jauh. Ternyata membuang ide dari pikiran dengan menghancurkan ide itu berbeda. Selama 2 minggu aku bersihin sampah-sampah ini. Aku ganti ketakutan ku dengan kata-kata Tuhan yang menyatakan aku berharga di matanya, mulia bahkan (yesaya 43:4). Aku terima kata-kataNya yang bilang "Aku mengasihi engkau dengan kasih yang kekal" kalau di bahasa inggrisnya "I have loved you with an everlasting love". Sudah terjadi, sudah ku alami, dan akan selalu Ia tunjukkan pad
