hey flippy!! can you give some tips on how to deal with unfortunate letter matchups like v/v or c/c?
this is where the magic grays sadly
c/c, because of c only really having one form, has one semi-okay glyph, and it's this:
in here, its just a circle with two slits cut out of it to play the c's opening. they're usually offset like this because putting the slits on the same level at the center just looks like a weird symbol. here's an example of c/c in use:
where the intended reading of the c is in red. this gap on the bottom may cause some reading problems, so some prefer to "occlude" this gap with a flourish or line, as seen here:
where the starting stroke of the r fills the gap of the c at the bottom. a hitch may also be added at the top lip of the c/c for aesthetic effect and cursive recognizability, but would impact the style for the rest of the ambigram.
v/v is rough. there are two main ways to do this. but they work best as multi-letter glyphs.
this one puts the V at the start of the glyph, leaving a flourish at the end. this flourish is ideally used as the stroke for another letter, but if done well can be left as a flourish. most possible misread would be a lowercase N. here's an example of this in use:
where the other extra stroke of the V serves as the spine for the E. the second one is where the V is put at the end, and looks like this:
this one is worse because the N misread is much stronger now, but again would work with the extra stroke as a flourish or as a stroke to another letter. here's an example of this in use:
where the extra stroke is being used as an i
hope this helps somewhat!!
