A new Ambigram

Japan - Tribute the country

Japan was hit by tremendous Earthquake on 11 March 2011 and to make matters worse a Tsunami shook the lives of the Japanese people. This ambigram is a tribute to the unfortunate victims who have lost their lives and support to thousands who have lost their loved ones, houses and are battling for survival. We are with you.

King

All my recent post have been on Facebook. I will try to post all my designs here. Thanks everybody for taking keen interest in my blog and designs.

yamnik-celebrating togetherness

This is a special gift for my sister and her husband on their marriage anniversary.

A very special thanks to Clayton Mabey who helped me to refine the design and make it more readable. The guy took just two minutes to rectify the design. He is a sheer genius.

A very happy anniversary to Yamini and Nikhil. Have a happy life ahead.

Throttle

The last post has been a total success. John Langdon, Co-inventor of the concept of ambigrams, the man who drew ambigrams for the famous novel 'Angels and Demons', Man behind 'Illuminati', commented on my previous blog. These images inspired me to dive into the world of ambigrams . It was truly an honor.

These comments made me create ambigrams with more vigour and enthusiasm. Now-a-days i am always on the lookout of words that are probable ambigrams. So you guys may see many more ambigrams coming your way.

Today's word is 'Throttle'. I had thought of this word a long time back. I had also created a hand made sketch of the word. But back then i had little knowledge of scanning and editing my ambigrams. So the Ambigram never got created. Yesterday as i was just thinking of words, the word Throttle crawled in my mind and i started drawing right at that moment.

The design circled mainly on the same path as the previous thought process. If you see at the word 'tt' make a 'h' and 'r' can easily made to look as 't'. 'o' being an natural just fitted in all the words. The challenge here was 'T' and 'E'. It was a bit difficult for me to fit these two words. I made a lot of combinations. But then finally narrowed it down the following design which looks pretty much attractive and readable. I made the 'o' look a bit different the original ones and thought of connecting it with 't' which was good. I scanned the image,painted it paint and then traced it in inkscape. This was quite easy because editing the traced image in inkscape is a tedious job. So this was quite easy and quick.

The next job was the colour thing. I wanted to make it look like a fiery word. It was not easy to put fire inside the word, so just put red and yellow colours at the end of the design. These colours complement the words meaning.

Its very important that you people keep on commenting on my blogs. They are very important for me. The legibility and the readability can be tested when many people try to comprehend the word.

So please keep commenting and checking out my blog.
