A while ago a winner of Free Swag Thursday was given a name card featuring his last name, Dionisio. Dionisio is also a first name, which some Filipinos translate to "Johnny". I guess it makes sense, with "Dio-" supposing to make the "Jo-" sound.
A bit of hand style, a bit of Asian-character references, all tied into this piece. I tried to make the kudlits follow the shape of the characters and follow typography spacing rules with the characters. As far as I know however, Baybayin doesn't really have descenders or ascenders since all characters are the same height (thus all have the same X height since there are no caps either)... I'll have to look into that.
A fun little project is soon to be revealed, stay up!
