This alphabet is written around six nib-widths high. Gothic writing: majuscule gothic letters A-Z Okay, let's get on with the actual gothic writing, rather than me twiddle-twaddling endlessly about my pet topics. And in gothic writing you must at all costs fill white space! So decorative lines, lozenges and little twiddle-twaddles abound, both inside and out. However, the big round shapes of the majuscules in gothic writing leave big white spaces inside (this space in any letter is called the 'counter'). Gothic writing in general lends itself enthusiastically to majuscule decorated letters so I hope you'll have fun with those. Important initials can have little gold boxes painted round them, as well as much other ornament. The latter fact should also tell you that gothic majuscules work very well in bright colour: traditionally, vermilion, blue or green.
