Maybe its just me. Well, I think the uppercase E looks very nautical anyway. Like its Neptune&#8217;s letter or something. So when I decided to make a drop cap E, I decided to make it more nautical.<\/p>\n<p>I also wanted to make the letter really different than how the letter E usually looks. Its either really blocky or really curly. I wanted it to be more round or circular. Now I think it looks almost like a throwing weapon. Don&#8217;t you think?<\/p>\n<p>I then felt like adding pearls and diamonds to the letter to create a more royal look, like it really is Neptune&#8217;s letter. I&#8217;m not sure how I like them or the rest of the letter. I like the shape of the E but I&#8217;m not sure about the rest. Am I getting in a creative block? Maybe. Good thing this is only practice.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-108\" title=\"Drop cap E\" src=\"http:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/E_dropcap.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"580\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/E_dropcap.jpg 580w, https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/E_dropcap-300x206.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trying to make an unusual letter E, I decided to try and echo the elements of the great king of the sea: Neptune! <a href=\"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/the-triton\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[29,42],"class_list":["post-107","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-typography","tag-drop-cap","tag-nautical"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=107"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":145,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/107\/revisions\/145"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=107"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=107"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/v2.shelbymoulden.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=107"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
