Pixel Joint Forum: 3D font

Message

   I'm working on a 3d font for a banner and I'm having a hard time with the letter G.

I used a 3 pixel vertical per 1 pixel horizontal angle for E,M and A 

I dont want to use curve lines, but right now the G looks weird.

Can someone help me please

	I don't know how beneficial this advice will be but I think that adding AA would really make things looks nicer. Especially on the G since it's so curvy.

	One thing that could be done is to scrap the current rounded style of the G, and go with a boxier form. Kind of like what was used in the Mega Man 7 box art logo.
