Maltese

Note: The SVG format requires Photoshop CC 2017 or Illustrator CC 2018 (or newer). Regular OTF version included can be read by any software.

Introducing Maltese an hand-painted SVG font with watercolor texture and transparency inspired by the sea!

Maltese is an all caps font family that comes in 2 different forms SVG & Solid with 2 styles each : regular & italic.

Maltese has been painted with an extreme care and edited to keep the maximum of the watercolor texture and details.

Each character of the font has been painted individually so letters from the regular and italic version don't look the same.

It will give your work a realistic watercolor look and a lovely handmade feel!

The SVG version can be installed like any other font, and can be used in any color on any background.

The solid version has been hand-lettered with a dip-pen and vectorized in a way that keeps the calligraphy texture of ink on the paper.
