Hi everybody, first post here! I love graffiti fonts; here are my latest:
I used a wacom to draw these in Illustrator, then copy/pasted into fontlab. I wish I could just work in fontlab, but it doesn't do the brushy/pressure thing I need, AFAIK
I can post .ttf files if anyone wants to install. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

nice stuff, will you make the rest of glyphs as well? i was wondering, how do you copy paste from illustrator to fontlab, i mean the proper way.

Thanks Claire! I did a quick video tutorial on how I do it:

Not sure if it's the "proper" way, and I do notice that fontlab slightly changes my beziers, but I'm still satisfied with the result.
