The styling of this dropcap which I came across in an online magazine article is very similar to dropcaps we have done before. The basic approach is: Use a span to mark it up, increase the font-size, and float the letter to the left. You can change its color (#DB0404) and choose any font you like. The font for this example is Typekit "ltc-bodoni-175". If you want to place the dropcap letter on a circle or a square, please see this post. Below, same dropcap, larger and positioned differently:

A neat site for different dropcap ideas.
