WeType Printmaking Developments

In this post I've documented the progress of a set of physical prints for WeType.

This looks at the print that will go in the WeType pack to display the full alphabet.

I want to print this in a range of colourways on both the Riso and as screen prints. This will make the physical print a more valuable object and really show off the font.

The screen print is at A4 size, I think this will be the size I will use in the pack because of the size I feel the pack will be. I will print the Riso print at A4 size though as I feel visually it will be great to see the font at a larger scale, and how I envision it for posters.

Colour separated acetates ready for screen exposure

Screen exposed, colour master print for registration and acetates

I loved the way the font looked in this image when I registered the first yellow colour up with the acetates.

Various coloured papers, of different weights on the drying rack, first colour down

I printed yellow and green on this first run on various papers, printing each colour on each paper for comparison
