A whale of a whale.

This is a whale image that I found on the internet rasterized using the first paragraph from Moby Dick, and typeset in my font Gorda. Each pixel was ready by Scriptographer for it’s color value and a character from the passage placed on the grid and given that value.

I tried it a number of ways, U&lc, all upper, with skew and without, small characters and large. Here are some of the alternates:

fot-moby-dick-2

fot-moby-dick-3
