blackletterexperimental blackletter
Cosm Decay specimen from Grim Type

A mutated blackletter whose variable axis slides from clean structure into spiked, eroded decay.

About

Cosm Decay strips blackletter to its bones and roughs it up with code-driven distortion and hand redrawing. The six styles run from Soft through Hard and Heavy to Black, Thrash and Doom, each more ragged than the last. Made for posters, covers and anything with a bit of metal about it.

Classification

A blackletter skeleton broken down through custom code and redrawing, with spiked, eroded edges. Its variable axis moves from intact structure to heavy decay, so the later styles sit at the edge of legibility.
