Use AI to design splatter brush fonts

Foreword

For the various calligraphy styles of the brush, although there are many calligraphy font resources on the Internet, after trying it, you will find that the effect is not very satisfactory. The main reason is that the charm of oriental calligraphy has its own uniqueness and its own irreproducibility. It would certainly be a good thing if we could write such a font, but it would take a long time to sharpen. Therefore, today we will share the method of using AI to design brush fonts with a splatter feel.


Source of inspiration

A video shared by a designer from HK. He provided many good methods of designing brush fonts. I selected some excellent techniques in it and added and deleted them appropriately.


Font preparation

STEP 01

Calligraphy first needs to have a certain font skeleton. There are many ways to build font skeletons, which are introduced in many font designs, so I won’t repeat them here. The font of the brush is quite special, so you can use the font resources on the Internet to choose a more suitable font to start, or you can filter from the works of some ancient calligraphers.


Here I choose the two characters "universe" in the "Rowling Cursive "Red Cliff Fu" written by Wen Huiming, a calligrapher of the Ming Dynasty, to express the entire creative process. His calligraphy style is vivid and gentle. The choice of font here directly affects the subsequent design. So, how to start is the source.

STEP 02

Drag these two words into the newly created document, create a new layer, and lock the layer below. On the new layer, use the pen tool to draw the outline of the font. In order to see it more clearly, here you can turn off the fill and only keep the stroke.

Stroke reshaping

STEP 03

After determining the basic shape of the font, you can turn off the stroke and turn on the fill. Start working creatively with this glyph. The first tool we're going to use is the "Warp Tool". The Warp tool can change the shape of a path object, changing the appearance of the font based on what you do.


The processing here can be done arbitrarily, double-click the small icon of the deformation tool, and a panel of deformation tool options will pop up, and various operating parameters can be set. The most used here are details and simplifications. At the same time, hold down the ALT key on the keyboard and use the left, right, up and down movements of the mouse to change the size of the tool, and to adjust the parameters in the panel.

This process makes the strokes slightly "rounder".

STEP 04

We're going to take the existing strokes a step further with the Pucker Tool, a step that transforms the sharp, smooth edges of the strokes into a splattered texture that resembles ink soaking onto rice paper. There are two most important points in the use of "fold tool", one is the size of the fold tool, and the other is the direction of the fold tool. It also requires you to constantly change these attributes during the creation process in order to make adjustments according to the actual situation.


Although it is a deformation treatment, it must also follow the writing rules of calligraphy itself, which must require the designer to have some understanding of the handling of the brush. (Widely dabbling, no harm~)

STEP 05

If you are still not satisfied with the current font, you can continue to use the wrinkle tool and the deformation tool together. Here if you make further "exaggerated" adjustments to the fold tool and deformation tool. If you are not sure about the direction, you can also adjust the direction of the font to make the operation easier.


The position and size of the font can also be changed to suit our styling layout.

Polishing and styling

In order to make the glyph look more individual and enhance its charm, you can also do the following processing.


STEP 06

Add some brush "flying" to the strokes, here you can use the "Eraser" tool. The size of the eraser can be adjusted according to the font, the purpose is to create some blanks here, and then use the wrinkle tool and deformation tool to change the shape of these blanks to make it more natural and vivid.

STEP 07

For some strokes in the font, you can also use the brush tool to "draw" the special shape of these strokes. The brush here needs to open the icon in the upper right corner of the brush panel, [Open Brush Library > Vector Pack > Decadent Brush Vector Pack], there are many optional art brushes that can be used to modify strokes in this brush library.

You can also adjust the thickness of the brush to suit your overall structural needs. A stroke can be adjusted for different strokes using the width tool.

STEP 08

Finally, expand the appearance of the strokes added in the previous step and merge them with the original strokes. It should be noted here that the stroke after expanding the appearance will leave a blank border, which is also a path object, which needs to be selected and deleted here to merge with the original stroke.


In addition, continue to add some ink dots to the font to restore it more realistically. Still using the brush, open the [Ink] art brush in the brush library. We can see at a glance which brushes are suitable for ink dots. After the ink dots are shaped, these ink dots are further expanded and filled with the same color as the font, because the color of the art brush itself of these inks is not completely pure black.

Final effect

Here I use gradient overlay to show the final effect.

It is not necessary to be a craftsman, but to be yourself

The spirit of craftsmanship should be one of the most consumed words in recent years. Everything related to handicrafts has been picked up from the dust and put into the exhibition field of vision. But in the current real life, we still have a sense of regression of "being forced to do some useless work that we have to do", and it is getting worse and worse. Just from the coexistence of this completely opposite phenomenon, it can be explained that this kind of violent ups and downs is just an opportunity. In the past, we may need to build a ladder to reach the place, but now we only need to stand on tiptoe. Because both ends of the scale appear in your life, what you have to do is not to chase something, but just to make a simple choice.

I am not encouraging designers to bury their heads and be meticulous craftsmen. There are all kinds of designers, and this is a diverse ecosystem. It is very important for everyone to find their own heart's desire. When you stand at this intersection and cannot solve the problem, you will still be at a loss when you walk to the next intersection. A problem is just a problem, the problem doesn't even need to be solved, the problem has no answer, the problem is no longer a problem. Only by moving forward with such an attitude can we pass six levels and cut six generals, and become a little King Kong.

Take myself as an example, I like all kinds of beautiful things, but I am not as curious about beauty itself as I am about how to produce beauty and why there is beauty and ugliness. . At the same time, some people are willing to only appreciate beauty without asking the source, and there is nothing wrong with this. I like to take a pen to record the process of creation, whether it is my own or someone else's, I am interested.

Some people leave a message asking me about the confusion about where to go, my answer sounds like nonsense, of course you have to ask yourself. I am not perfunctory with any questions for the sake of quick and easy. I really like that you share the questions with me, and it also makes me think a lot.

Back to the level of doing, that is to see yourself clearly first, and the way outside will be clear. I sincerely hope that everyone's road of self-knowledge can be shortened, and the eight meridians can be opened up in an instant. What I’m talking about today may be more related to philosophy, but I admit that I really love philosophy, but I didn’t write this introduction.
