The Unmentionable, Story title and letterhead design

Hand lettered short story title and letterhead I made for 'Micronised' by Aria K.C. The title was heavily blackletter inspired with a specific reference from some lettering in a historic painting. I drafted this by hand in ink first and then refined it and digitised it.
