Impact

A new day and a new ambigram.

The word impact means influence. Everybody is impacted by some or the other way in their life.

Be it good or bad. I was also influenced by this word and i decided to create an ambigram as a tribute to this beautiful word.

imPact :- This word came to mind when i was in the office. (Now people may think what do i really do in the office as most of the designs evolve in my mind when i am in the office. :) :) ) I didn't use any pen or paper to create this,the design just struck my mind and I convinced my self that yes this baby is done.

I have made use of the custom font that is present in 'Inkscape' to create this ambigram, to be in sync with the previous design.Now here if u see the word, i have made use of the letter 't' and added just a dot below it so that it would look like an 'i' when viewed upside down.The letters 'c' and 'a' are clubbed together to create the letter 'm'. Up till this point it was easy. But now i wanted to make the letter P to look in the same way upside down.

So i used the custom built 'c' for making the letter 'p'. Now the next challenge was the alignment of the letters. But i had lame design in my mind. So it didn't take long time to complete.

Now the next thing was the linked offset(outline), which had a lot of 'impact' on my mind once i saw it in a tutorial for inkscape on the Internet. I have really liked that thing because it gives a different flavour to the ambigram. The design looks more polished and vivid.

From the time i started using inkscape to create my ambigrams, i used the calligraphy brush to a large extent. Then i started using the curve functionality and now as the time has passed i am able to exploit more features provided by the software. I am getting more and more comfortable with the software.

Some of the terms may be abstruse to people who have not used Inkscape, my apologies to them,but here i only want to let you know about the evolution of my designs.Experience helps people to learn many things and they can apply these learnings in the future.

With all this, I'm really dubious about the amount of 'impact' that will be casted on the viewers.

Fingers crossed
