Astra (a Circular Gallifreyan inspired script)
This is a script that I've been working on and posting on the Gallifreyan discord for the past few weeks and I want to share it here.
An Unprofessional Guide to Astra
sample text \"wow! can you believe it: a cat, a dog, and bush (me)- they’re all here; how?\"

"Happy Halloween!"

Does this read okay?
Does this read okay? I’m slightly worried about the middle dot being a bit confusing, if someone could translate it fine, then that’s good enough for me :)

More "Linearized" Sherman
I think I've gotten rid of the errors but just in case.

Question about line placement
Does the vowel in the fourth word still work as an "i," or does it read as a "u?" If the latter, how can that be avoided?
Linear provided below circular. for clarity.

I’m trying to write in a more advanced way, is this correct?
21:01 UTC
Posting very quickly lol but doing some experiments with the stylings
Going for a bit of a fusion between English and Gallifreyan maybe?
19:09 UTC
Welp, guess I'm learning this now
How can I improve (yes I am getting a better drawing program soon so the lines will be cleaner)

Quick question about the official translator
Yes I know this'll probably get deleted but is there any reverse engineering programs, like taking the image from the translator and converting it back to English (if there isn't I'll probably scrap the translator but I hope there is!)
17:59 UTC
Is this accurate?
16:07 UTC
Probably my favourite one-liner in the entire show
16:06 UTC
Tell me if (...now) it makes sense

Let me know if it makes sense

Spell check?

This is my ode to the American healthcare system and big pharma… and the original painting is ABSOLUTELY FREE! As long as you spot me for the $3,275.31 medical bill that inspired this piece :) call it a materials expense for all those syringes.

Translate please?
Is anyone able to translate this for me please? I'm finalizing a sleeve and want to triple check everything before it becomes a permanent part of me.
19:09 UTC
I tried to write gallifreyan for the first time..
I doubt its 100% correct so any and all advice is welcome 🙏
13:12 UTC
Advice?
Getting back into writing in Gallifreyan! It’s so much fun. Any spell check/advice to make it look more aesthetic would be very welcome!
16:05 UTC
Spell check please :D
Attempt 2 lol
10:34 UTC
Hello! Spell check please!

Lord of the rings tattoo request
Hello! I was wondering if someone could design a lord of the rings quote in Galifreyan tattoo for me in the similar style of the pic with this post. I’d like it to say “Not all those who wander are lost”
Thank you so much in advance!!
Not my pic
05:13 UTC
Something sweary…
When I found out the official translator doesn’t allow swears, I knew immediately what I had to do lol
23:48 UTC
Did I do this correctly?
Can anyone let me know if this is A) comprehensible and B) if I've actually written it correctly please. I just started learning Gallifreyan and this is my first proper attempt at writing a word.
12:08 UTC
My classmates kept saying my Gallifreyan looked like mechanical pizza, so I made this.
08:09 UTC
This good?
