A typeface with strong influence of traditional circus posters with a modern twist. This flamboyant font is an example of display type. Due to its large amount of detail the font is not advised for dense text. It is most appropriate for headlines, signage and titles.

Outstanding. These gradients looks impressive with small pieces of any letter and nice 3D.

The shape is cool.

Great font; great shading - I like it a lot.

It might be worth widening the space between words a bit for greater clarity :)

A stylish futuristic font with a gradient. The A and B are very similar. Having A alone one could not guess it's an A. No space has been set. I hope you create the numbers and the other basic glyphs. Good job. 10/10

Hey guys thank you for you comments! just wondering whether you could advise me how wide to take the letter widths and if there was anything you could suggest to make the capital A more like an A.

Keep the criticism coming! Much needed!

It's the space between the words that needs to be adjusted.

Go to 'space' (between lower case and numbers) and then open Advanced/View/Letter width. Set the space, by trial and error, checking it in Preview.

This is really interesting. I'd love to see a sample of use. The upper and lower cases seem a strange marriage. I particularily like the lower case.

This very cool. Not sure about the lowercase f though, looks a bit too much like g maybe? And you have some stuff I think you need to clean up the lowercase x..
