Book Titles Development & Vector Illustrations

Love & Mr Lewisham vectors:

I'm not entirely sure why, but I decided to start forming my book title in the middle. Tackling the ampersand first just seemed like the right thing to do. It set the standard for the rest of the cover and was a guide for the rest of the letters. 

I found it quite a challenge when starting each new letter. Here you can really see how it took shape.

Mr Polly Vectors:

Here are some type experiments I did when trying to see which typeface would work appropriately for the titles.

You may or may not be able to see here that I have altered the leading between each word. I felt that sometimes when I found a typeface I liked, it was appropriate but the spacing between the words and letters sometimes wasn't So I played around a little with the words once I found a font I liked. Above is Times New Roman.

This is the final typeface that I chose and the one which I decided to use on all the covers. It is Times New Roman. I have also tweaked the leading and the kerning on it.
