Blooper and Bloop Script

BLOOPER and BLOOP SCRIPT were created to have the look of letters formed by puddles of shiny liquid.
The general form of each was inspired by a classic font. Blooper takes after Cooper Black (Oswald Cooper, 1921), Bloop Script after Brush Script * (Robert E. Smith, 1942).

I also made a solid version of each (without highlights) for use in layering and with effects filters.

Character Set

 BLOOPER contains lowercase letters only, NO CAPS, plus numbers, punctuation, and international characters.
BLOOP SCRIPT includes caps, lower case, numbers, punctuation, and international characters.

The term "blooper" was coined by Kermit Schaefer for "mistakes and gaffes of radio and TV announcers and personalities."

Pop Artist Ed Ruscha has made some interesting images of words spelled out in fluids. (OOO, 1970, at left
