“I want something a little - uh, fluid. And old style.”

Maybe I just need more coffee, but that seems like not an awful lot of information.
Have a look around Numbers?

What do you mean by old style here? Like a Goudy text face? I don’t think of those as fluid so much as sometimes a bit blobby. Maybe you mean old fashioned and caligraphically fluid... Or something else. More definition please. Have you looked at Dutch mannerist writing?

Thanks.

Fluid as in calligraphic, not as in warm molasses (but then again, hey - why not?). Oldstlye as in non-lining figures. Those aren’t rules though. My mind is open.

Buy some plastic letters and go medieval with a blowtorch :-)

For extra fun, do an entire alphabet and digitize them to use as a personalized font :-D

yeah, but I’ve got all theses nifty chisels all sharpened up enough to shave with...

:o)

I love to carve signs and think calligraphy looks nicest by far. Depends on your house, though. Can you do real calligraphy? My own house number is about halfway down this page: http://albanysigns.com/carved_signs.htm

Now we’re talkin! :o)

nice work, Frank.

I don’t really do calligraphy, but I draw well, and by drawing the same glyphs over and over again, I can end up with something LIKE calligraphy. :o) In the end, what ever I do will be hand drawn, though likely based on or at least, “inspired” by an existing font, though I’ve been looking at Bickman’s Universal Penman. The carved shapes need to be fatter than most calligraphic figures I’ve seen.
