the shadow and the helix
This is great. But I don't feel like the text is connected to the background, which is fine if that's what you were going for. Might be cool to see some bleeding of text into parchment. I realize you're not asking for advice on this; it's a completed work. Just throwing some ideas out there.
always nice to get some feedback the text is a 'fairy-tale' (so-to speak) in a religious/dystopian/steampunky world and i thought the exocet font worked well, though it's quite old now and my taste in fonts has changed since then... perhaps something less 'cartoony' in an updated version? thanks
