old is cool

This was made by a graphic designer called Alex Trochut. He works in type and illustration. This piece is very interesting because there is a cool 3D look to it. The shading is very well done with the use of lines. It is written in a cursive style and it just looks like its kind of moving.

Wow! He's good!

Really nice. It's especially good to get a closer look and see that the "shading" is not a gradient but done in all black and white with tapering contour lines to accentuate the dimensional forms.

I like the organic shape the type makes, but at first I couldn't read well the text. For me, specially this type it works more as an illustration than as a type, At least if it has no kerning
