Turtles MOVIE inspired font?
 
Hey guys,
I am looking for a true type font that is based on the first MOVIE font rather than the 80's toon logo. Someone has to have one. Anybody?

That Font.

This is one font that resembles some of the letter characteristics of the tmnt movie font, especially when you observe the "G", "U", "J", "R", and "S". I think if you do some color tweaking, and add some filler in the letter gaps(shown from the link), you could come up with a pretty decent resemblance.

Here you go man:P

I could also make a similar font, but you'd have to keep your expectations pretty low because of my boring daily, time-consuming schedule :D

You can use what the brownranger linked you to but that doesnt look right to me.

Here is an example that I came up with using the font "Impact" that is found on most computers (pcs anyways). In Illustrator I changed the leading to 45, trackingto -10, stroke and fill to whatever you want. The only noticeable difference really is the J... but barely.

Let me know if you want more examples...

I'll see your "Impact" and raise you an "ITC Machine".

Yeeeah... but unfortunately ITC Machine isn't a free font! I think Impact comes standard with all Windows PCs, yes?

ITC Machine is a better match, though.

Gah! Sorry 'bout that. I didn't realize that it wasn't a free font. For some reason, the font came with my computer, though it is a custom made Dell.

I actually am a little amazed at how expensive of a font it is (or at least it seems expensive to me, considering I'm not the type of person who would buy fonts).

Ooops...It helps if I read a thread. Carry on. :P

Bigfoot 04-02-2009 09:55 PM

That has got a better J, and the cut off corners, but I still like mine.
