Decided to make my own custom hero recently so I’ve been searching the web to find the correct fonts and finally found them, all made by the same person, Nate Piekos (blambot). These are the same fonts used on the SotM cards. Decided I’d share this discovery with everyone here in case they want to make thier own custom heroes, like when Richard Launius first made his custom NightMist before he joined up for Infernal Relics.
Here’s a place you can easily search through the free fonts and even see what your own words will look like before you download. http://www.fontspace.com/blambot
P.S. Just realized I could now make my own SotM cover for the box I currently put all my cards in, since I now have the fonts.
When I was creating my oversized cards, I wanted an "H" icon that moved in-line with the rest of the text because I thought it could be a pain to always have to reposition the "H" every time I made a change to the text. So I found a font with a cartoony H, and a dingbats font that had a circle, then adjusted the kerning in Photoshop so that the two were displayed on top of each other. With that, I could copy/paste my "H" icon into any block of text and know it would always hold its position.
Having said that, I think the actual "H" icon looks better than my solution.
Already made that icon myself in my templates, wasn't too hard after finding the fonts. Though currently need Illustrator CS4 or higher to use the full templates.
