I have finally finished drawing out all of my lowercase letters and due to the time constraints of working within a school-year schedule have decided to jump into the software with them rather than finish the uppercase, numbers, punctuation, etc.I scanned my drawings and have begun tracing the outlines in Illustrator, then I copy the paths into TypeTool to resize and adjust paths as needed. At this point, it appears that everything is working alright, but I'm afraid that the paths I am drawing in Illustrator are looking too smooth and polished, undoing the hand-drawn look that I am aiming for.
I keep reminding myself that this isn't the end-all be-all with this font and I can always go back and redo things. It's all part of learning process, I guess.
