I seem to fall back on the same few script / 'title' italic fonts:
Radio and bello mostly
I wondered if anyone could recommend and other great script fonts. I love the paintings and sculpture type here...

Any other suggestions? Quite like this FF Masala too.

Hi marc:
I'm in the process of creating one.
Right now the lowercase are finished and the caps are in their way.
You can follow the progress and download the betas at:

I love it, looking forward to seeing the finished article. I'm guessing working on the font you will have been researching script type, could you offer any other examples along these lines?
