Task 2: Consistency

In terms of size, each letter shares the same height and width. Each stroke in the letters are evenly made, so that the thickness of stroke is consistent. The stem is the same height and thickness in each letter with a stem. The shape of each letter is blocky, even the O's resemble rectangles. Due to this edged shape, the bowl of each letter with a bowl is the same type of shape. Finally the shape of the counters are consistent between R and O, but not A.     

Once again the height and width of each letter are very consistent. The stroke remains the same thickness until it gets to the end of some tines, where the thickness will decrease. Each stem shares the same height and thickness. The shape of each letter consistently resemble basic shapes such as squares, triangles and circles. However despite this the bowls still seem to maintain the same type of curve. Once again the shape of the counter is consistent between R and O but A is once again the odd counter out.  

While the width is consistent throughout this phrase, the height is not as the R reaches down much further than a capital letter should. The strokes are consistent, getting slightly thinner as the lines end, also the large amount of extra strokes as the tops of letters, bottoms of letters and at the end of each line. the shape of each character somewhat resembles something more rounded for some, such as E, S and T, but more squarish for letters like W, H and A. The Counter of this font is Consistent between R and O as both Counters have a small stroke going through the initial letter stroke in the middle. 

Task 1: What are those fonts?

Liked Fonts

I like this font because it is easy to read, the block shape of each letter and the lack of additional details makes the text plain and simple to read. However the additional details that have been added are relevant enough to spice up the font but not relevant enough to overwhelm the characters.   

I like this font because although some of the characters (particularly A) are different from the original character, it is still easy to identify. I also like this font for its funky appearance. 

I like this font because of it's artistic western aesthetic, but also because despite the large amount of additional details, each letter still strongly resembles the original characters.   

Disliked Fonts

I dislike this font due to its unnecessarily large size, it was one of the only fonts that couldn't preview the entire phrase. As well as size, the appearance of certain characters (W,A,T) are recognizable, but only barely.   

I disliked this font due to the blank spaces between the elements of each letter. In some cases it is difficult to tell what certain characters are. Letters like A, R and E leave too much to the imagination, and W barely resembles the original symbol. 

While the several curved ends are a reason I find this font difficult to read, the main reason I do not like this font is because of the poor spacing between letters and more importantly between words. This font resembles someone writing in a hurry and with little care.
