The Birth of A font

Using our roman, roman, gothic, block and script fonts we were asked to cut each section of the upper case A and Bs and lowercase A and Bs into there stems and then cut out the counters so i'll then be left with cut up letterforms. 





As you can see i have cut all the letterforms up, so i could then create hybrids and start my own alphabet.
