[2J[0m[7C[1mshading ascii - using the upper/lower case desig [A[55Cn thing [0m/[1;30m nootropic[0m
here's a neat little tutorial that shows two things… f [A[56Cirst, [1mshading an ascii[0m. this is much different than just colouring it, or flippi [A[56Cng some blocks, or what not.. i've seen many peop [A[25Cle attemping shading, but it's really just toon s [A[74Ctuff, in essence. here's how you get that shaded effect.
in addition, i am covering the [1mupper/lower case thin [A[52Cg[0m i have talked about in other tutorials. it's neat and all, so check it out. rem [A[56Cember, the fate of the scene lies in your hands.

first i whipped up some neat looking [1mholocaust-style [A[52C[0m letters. <shrug> i had never tried it before, thought i might have a certain st [A[56Cyle with it. apparently i do not, and i don't plan on doing any more hO stuff :) [A[56C let the master do it.

next i made a neat upper case looking "free"… it's the [A[56C shittiest font possiblemethinks.. when doing the [A[25C upper/lower case merge, it's a good idea to keep [A[74C them similar to the basic dos font.

each letter is a combination of the lower case letters a [A[56Cnd the upper case letters.. all i'd do is take a piece of one letter and [A[55C[1moverlap[0m it, occasionally using "U" (under in aciddraw) to put it under the upper [A[56Ccase font… here's how: [65C$$$$Ss [31C$$$$$$$$Ss, [13C$$$$$$$$Ss,`ýý' [31C$$$$' `$$$b[13C$$$$' `$$$b [1m ALT-B, select an area[0m[8C$$$$[4Css$$[13C$$$$[4C [A[64Css$$ [31C$$$$[3C,$$$7[13C$$$$ ,$$$7 [6C$$[1;31;41m$sS$$$$$Ss[0m[11C[1;31;41m$sS$$$$$Ss[40m [A[39C[0m$ý' [10C[1;31;41m"$sS$$$$$$$[0m$ý' [6C$$[1;31;41m$$' `ýý'[0m [1;30m =====⇒[0m [A[29C[1;31;41m$$' `ýý'[0m$S, [1;30m=====⇒[0m[3C [A[54C[1;31;41m$$' `ýý'[0m,S, [6C$$[1;31;41m$$[0m[19C[1;31;41m$$[0m[8C$$$,[11C [A[54C[1;31;41m$$[0m[8C$$$, [6C$$[1;31;41m$$[0m[19C[1;31;41m$$[0m[8C$$$b[11C [A[54C[1;31;41m$$[0m[8C$$$b [6C$$$$ [18C$$$$ ss$$[21Css$$

now i'm going to add blocks to enhance the artistic appe [A[56Cal. stuff like « and ¬ [1msmooth out[0m the plain blocky $$ fills. in additio [A[48Cn i'll correct any [1mlogical[0m [1minconsistancies[0m from the merge thing. ie, the sh [A[48Caded area.. that "[1md[0m" should not be there to curve things back.
other blocks can be added as well (to the fill): &, %, ° [A[56C, ±, G, #, ò, , etc..
