Hi! Do you think I could ask what fonts you use in your edits, or what your fav font resource is? I love the ones you use so much! I'd understand though if you didn't want to share. Thanks in advance if you did! x

Hi anon, thanks SO MUCH for the ask, and don't fret! I'll gladly share the fonts with you, they're no secret! And a lot of them I've also found through other creators' work so I would be unfair if I didn't.

My go-to resource is DaFont.com, only very little do I download fonts from other sites. Time to time I search for font recs on Tumblr. And for the particular fonts, I will put them into categories by fandom for which I use them.

HIS DARK MATERIALS

Now, for my Kat Miller edits I did my own font from I think Verdana or Tahoma, or at least for the chapter updates header. But recently I've discovered a lovely font that resembles the TV show serrated font:

Brightness (by Vladimir Nikolic).

Otherwise I used Calibri as the secondary font and:

JMH Typewriter Dry or Bold, Tox Typewriter.

For subtitles I use Arial Bold Italic with a drop shadow.

STAR TREK

Gameover, Manaspace or essentially any pixel/bitmap font for the "system" texts. Roddenberry, Starcine—which is the DS9 mock font but not too well done. Starnext, for the Next Generation mock font.

For subtitles I use Arial Bold Italic with a drop shadow.

GRISHAVERSE

Britanie, HeavyRain, Kogaion, Kremlin Orthodox Church, Romanjo, RussianLand, TheRacoonQuest, Gottam, Slightly Marker. Then some random preinstalled serifed fonts, I think mostly Bookman Old Style.

For subtitles I use Arial Italic with a drop shadow.

PEAKY BLINDERS

Triumph Wheels, The Golgsmith Vintage, plus the aforementioned typewriter fonts.

THE WITCHER

These I discovered like literally yesterday for my first but not last Ane gifset and I am SO happy about them. 1742 French Civilite, Drunk Monk, Il Shake Fest, Italian Cursive 16th c., Magna Carta.

For the subtitles I use Arial Rounded on the bold and italic type setting in PS, with a drop shadow and outline.

STAR WARS

Aurebesh, naturally, in combination with I think Calibri as secondary font. In the link you'll find a ton of versions, including a handwritten one, which is badass af.

Sorry it took my so long to reply, but it was a heavy link hunt lmao. And I wanted to include the new medieval fonts bc they're pure love. Thank you once more for interacting, hope this helps!

did you use Bob Morley in your aaddtsotu edit? Because he's filipino so I don't think you should be using him as a fantasy for Mexican charactors :/ just letting you know

i did not actually! so i think your worries are slightly irrelevant. but at the same time,  thanks for letting me know!

Sorry if I've missed it in the previous post but can I ask which font you use for your Witcher edits that gives "s" that long shape? It's the perfect mix of stylized but still easy to read that I've been looking for for ages!

Hi, no worries! It's Il Shake Fest from Dafont and I fell for it for the exact same reason. An absolute little delight of a font. Enjoy!

i'm so obsessed with your s&b edits! how did you search the paintings? thanks

Hi anon! I really hope this ask hadn’t been sitting in my inbox for too long, app notifications are being funky again.

I’m so happy you like them, thanks! I don’t usually do any particular searches except for when I have a theme in my mind, nor do I use any special sources. Because Ketterdam and Kerch as a whole are Netherlands inspired, I usually do a broad “baroque dutch painting” or “16th / 17th / 18th century dutch painting” G*ogle search and save what I like, then often end up looking through the works of individual painters (e.g. Rembrandt, Rubens, De Bles, Gaesbeeck) whose work I liked on Wikimedia or other Creative Commons licensed webs. French 17th - 18th century painting schools also have a lot of works with a great aesthetic.

Because Marijne is a Fabricator, I also did searches such as “painter / artist in his studio”, “alchemist+painting”, or for instance “music studio painting” or “music class painting” for the Alys Van Eck edit, and the like. But usually the combination of “[theme, idea]” + “[century] painting” eventually drops something I like! Except for G*ogle I also sometimes go to the portal webumenia.sk, which holds the works from most Slovak galleries and has exceptionally high res free licence pics, but tbh I don’t know if the page has an eng mutation (though it should if I know our National Gallery’s media team one bit)—if you’re curious I can’t reccomend it enough.
