Typeface "Benny Harvey, RIP"

On my birthday I went to see the beautiful gravestones behind Glasgow Cathedral. Because of their age, their memorial carvings had eroded and engulfed in moss. In the most extreme cases, for the gravestones which were no longer being kept, the sentences had become completely unintelligible.
It seemed interesting, how all of these writings, whose purpose is to remind of the person buried there, were also slowly being lost to time, dying, even if literally written stone.
I decided to create this 3-variant typeface pack titled "Benny Harvey RIP" which based on how letters decay in real gravestones.
