I’ve been looking quite a bit at blackletter writing1 recently and I just randomly doodled around using Ayeri’s script, Tahano Hikamu, as a basis, today:

A blackletter-inspired adaptation of Tahano Hikamu

The letter ba is slightly difficult because it’s looking left whereas most of the other consonant characters are looking right. The difference between the placeholder consonant and ra is also very minimal, but that it is in the regular form (first rows) as well, plus similarity with ta. I’m not perfectly happy with that ha either.


  1. Things aren’t perfectly angular yet in this period, i.e. the first quarter of the 13th century. ↩︎
