Hubano 2 Pre-Release

Took a photo of Baker’s Island on the Whaler, used Ships Whistle inspired from lettering on the Martha’a Vineyard ferry along with Paint Factory inspired by lettering on a building in Gloucester Harbor (where WB was filmed). Synergy! Also? #widowsbay
A little WIP Wednesday Warmup with Spagetty today. With apologies and homage to my beloved Veer (RIP) Serif cap I wore probably 20 years ago 🤓

I've been making a little graphic for each F1 race as an excuse for more font specimens :) And predictions! Gotta go Leclerc for this one. Using the WIP of Kyroh here for the city and driver names.
