Ambigrams

[Deryn]

Some people have been PMing me to see some of my custom ambigrams... so I thought I'd T11 a few up. I have hundreds of names. If you want your own name, we'll talk

Please don't steal them.. all you have to do is ask!

nice man thats talent

 

[Lizard_buit]

Sweet!

They're really cool ( the dan and dave one is the best, by far).
Do you have any 'Jonh' ambigrams?
They would look great on msn...

Very Nice man.

I'm getting ready to design my business cards and those look pretty freakin sweet.
I like the look to them. I'm assuming you can do different colors and what not as well.
If I wanted a logo from you to go on a business card, how would we go about doing that? Would you send it to me as an attachment and then I would print it and take it to my local copy shop? Would I be able to change the sizing on it if need be? Let me know. How long does it take you to design something like a first and last name?

it takes me about an hour or 2 depending on the complexity of it but keep in mind, i do this for commission so pm me so we can talk elsewhere

Very nice, very clean. The Jonathan one is pretty hard to read mind you, I like the Dan and Dave one. I do these my self, and you've got me thinking about how that one would work with an "&" instead on "and."

I think it would look better, but working it out, of course, is the fun part.

Very nice work.
I tried playing around with magic style ambigrams using AutoCad but they looked rubbish. I'm not very artistic but i did look at the website of the guy who did the angels and demons stuff. There was also a site that showed tatoo ambigrams. There was a fantastic one that read love one way up and lust the other way up. Keep it up. you might get a big commision from somebody!!

Its also used at the end of his Identity book. I saw that and thought you had something to do with it

Also, just wondering how long you've been doing this for?

holy hell!! really? it's at the end of identity??? I had no idea. Daniel doesn't tell me anything.. as a matter of fact.. he doesn't tell ANYONE anything haha. Sweet (ban me LOL*)

I've only been doing ambigrams for about 2 weeks..?

*reference to April Fools "forum rules" joke

 

[Deryn]

Someone said they wanted to see an ampersand for Dan and Dave so here's what I did

 

[JoeCarr]

awesome stuff, do you do ones that read other words upside down, they look A LOT harder to make, but yours look awesome

 

[Deryn]

yeah I do.. I'm just starting out so I'm only good at words with the same amount of letters.. I am practicing words that have 1 or 2 letters less but I think that's the limit. I'll post some more later

 

[JoeCarr]

nice, where'd you learn this stuff, or did you just kinda see other stuff and try it, looks awesome...

 

[Sam Hardy]

Yeah, I saw your name in the credits of IDentity, Deryn and I wondered what you had to do with it.

Now I know.

Well done, these look amazing.

 

[Deryn]

i just tried it, joe.. and thanks Emo.. wish I had more to do with it

 

[JoeCarr]

haha, cool, man ive tried and its VERY HARD, to do the 2 word thing...

 

[JoeCarr]

just to see how difficult it is, i spent about 20 mins doing this:
FIRST ATTEMPT EVER, BEFORE I GET LAUGHED AT, 20 MINS, IN MS PAINT!!!

I did the blur because its basically impossible to make an A into an SI, so the phrase is...


THE LINE BETWEEN REALITY AND ILLUSION IS BLURRED...

voila, my creation was born...

 

[Shanku]

Bravo joecarr14!

Can anyone give me some tips as to where I can learn how to do these? Maybe someone can help me out by doing my name for me to get me started?

Cheers,
Shanku.
