DB Fonts or Look-A-Likes

Post by ToshiMustgrind » Mon Jul 20, 2009 5:40 am

Hey guys!
Wondering where some good Dragonball fonts can be found.
I'm tired of finding the "webding" version that contains just the various symbols from the show.

I'm trying to create a graphic and wanted either an actual DB font or one that comes close to the style of fonts used for the various manga, games and anime.

Thanks for any help
Cant wait to share the image when its done!

SimHei looks dangerously close to the Dragon Ball Anime logo, but you need to edit it the same way I did (if you've seen my logo), Saiyan Sans is obviously the short jagged DBZ logo. I also use Tank Junior for various things, and even made my own Gundam Logo with it.
