Hi Clay,

I've emailed you, as requested but so far no response.
Maybe it got lost in the interwebs somewhere

If you're still pondering who to give the job to I've been throwing some ideas together, not in a suitable style yet but the techniques seem to be working well.
I've emailed some screen grabs to you.

I think a rough and stylised look might be more appropriate for you, something angular and "game".
Do you have any games you like the look of?

I made a Futhark font years ago, I'm still trying to find it, but something like that would be useful for decorative edging or even map labelling.

Also- I noticed your rough diagram has Sweden/Denmark "upside down", was just wondering why?
Is it something historical?

Cheers,
