Tigerprint - Design a day - Emotives

To begin my research I wanted to look at the theme of emotions, as I want this brief to last about 3 months, I need to be sure that there are in fact around 90 emotions I can illustrate and create a typeface from.

After looking at all of the emotives, I am aware of how difficult it will be to illustrate these using only type and feel I may stray away from this idea, unless I was to approach this brief using image based design. I intend on researching other, more appropriate themes in regard to my interest in type.
