yeh kinda guessed
but was looking for what software is best to create it in and specifically what tools. thought liquify might be a good start but made a slight shambles of it.

Just copy what he does, isn't that what you want to do?.... not really a crash course so much just a sit down and copy surely you don't need to be told how to recreate this as a still image?.....
Or are you looking for a quick fix type plug in that just does all the work for you?.....

Some of his elements within the letters are forms remensicient of Art Nouveau. A quick google found this:

The curvilinear form of Art Nouveau should give you a good reference point to start from.

I vote find a new style... Try Chuck...

he does it all by hand. good luck

Why not just commission him to do it for you?
Will save you a shit load of effort on your behalf and you will be giving the guy who made it work instead of just doing an imitation.
But this may be a silly suggestion, I don't know.
- dunno - dnt think they wana fork out that much moneyliveforever
- I know what you mean, I don't know how much the chap charges for an illo, but might be worth it to contact him.ian

Here's an interview with Si Scott, which also covers how he works: http://www.typeforyou.org/2006/0…
Ok, now give me the keys to his car!
- neue75_bold0
well look at TDR, the Attik etc... time will tell...
There's style and then there's having a specific approach and mentality, I believe it's a case of all for Si, but have yet to see anything terribly diverse from him... and feel unless he evolves a bit, then after a few years the commissions will stop coming...
- liveforever0
at the end of the day your all so quick to judge.
like jaline said................. he has his own style just like all of us. this isnt my preferred project to be working on but have to do it.in his defence he his style requires talent. so if u think your all so brilliant then u try doing his style yourself and then your realise it requires a great level of skill and creativity.
- There is that, and there is also the fact that a million people around the world are now doing it and it looks tired.Walker2

filled in counters might be a better bet--it only takes a few seconds
- I don't think he knows what a counter is...neue75_bold

when I think of the mind-numbing succession of styles nters have embraced in my six years here... I am exhausted. It might even be time for layered vectors to come back by now
