Stranger Times goes above and beyond a typical brush font. Using OpenType-SVG technology, this font preserves all the high definition detail of the original painted letters. It truly looks realistic, and the difference compared to regular vector fonts is staggering. Each letter has been painted 3 times, with a variance in sizes: Small, Medium and Large. Using the uppercase, lowercase and alternates, you can get the perfect variety of size in between letters.
So how does it work? Instead of vectorizing the letters, I invented a method that uses transparency effects in order to get the quality that you see. This is all made possible thanks to the latest developments of the OpenType-SVG format, and the integration of that technology into Photoshop. Stranger Times installs like any other font, and can be used in any color, on any background. Check out the example video to see everything this font can do!
What’s included:
OpenSVG Font – This is the main font file containing all the hyper realistic effects.
Regular Font (TTF/OTF) – This is the same font, but a vectorized version, so the texture will look different. This is a great traditional option for use in other programs, including earlier versions of Photoshop. This version is also great for blocks of text and small print.
Brushes – Each character in the OpenType-SVG font is also available as a brush. These brushes are great for users who cannot use the OpenType-SVG font, but want to get the exact same end results.
Swash Brushes – We’ve also included a bunch of underlines to help spice up your designs.
Requirements:
You need to be using Photoshop CC 2017.1.1 or Illustrator CC 2018 (or later) in order for the OpenType-SVG font to work.
Don’t have the latest Photoshop? You still have options! Each letter is also available as a Photoshop brush. Load these brushes into any version of Photoshop, and form your words with all the same detail offered by the OpenType-SVG font. Also, we’ve included a vector version of the font.
