The Wobble

A little something i made after discovering the work of Florian Schommer.

Dotted background made with tiled Clones (a random Shift).
Wobbly outline made with Pattern along Path and some strategic splits of the textpath.


To get the desired spacing of the pattern, i grouped the 1,5px dot with a no Fill, no Stroke square of 12px, then tiled with a Randomize of 30%.


For the wobbly outline i made a pattern from a simple line.
Just add a node in the middle, make it symmetric and move the handle to turn into a wave like shape.
Temporarily add a clone to the end as a helper object, to make sure it comes out smooth.


Add this pattern to individual letters with the 'Pattern Along Path LPE' ('Repeated stretched' and set 'Fuse nearby ends' to greater than 0) and split a node wherever the transition of the pattern looks off. Also make sure the Stroke's Join and Cap are set to rounded.
