I like it. This could be the start of something sweet.

Looking really good! (Just have to say your M and W have inverted stress) 10/10 Keep it up!

Thank you. I had the idea several months ago for a Trajan font that looked engraved, so I searched for a cloneable Trajan font on the site but found nothing. So here I am killing two birds with one stone, albeit two Siamese twin birds.

Another great work from you, you have really become a fontstructor to look at and enjoy. Keep it up!10/10

@CMunk: Thank you for pointing that out, I have changed it immediately. How easily these technicalities often may slip one's mind.
@time.peace: Thank you very much; however I would like to disclaim myself from the font by saying that if this isn't 100% pastiche then I've gone wrong, so it isn't really a work 'from' me.

Every font out here has a little bit of inspiration from something, and with that said, you still are one great fontstructor
Comment by tortoiseshell 8th april 2014
A beautifully constructed take on the classic theme. This shows great skill.

Hmm... TRAIAN or Trajan?
Comment by Evie Atarax (j4s13) 8th april 2014
@p2pnut: Thank you very much.

@j4s13: If you are asking why I gave my font the title it has, it's because I wanted to give it a different but similar name to the fonts it's based on. In the original Latin inscriptions there is only an uppercase, and there are no letter Us or Js. Look up 'Trajan' on google translate into Latin--it will give you 'Traianus'.

@Cohnisgone It was to show you it was quite ironic that Trajan was on the "FontStruct™" Trajan/TRAIANVS
Comment by Evie Atarax (j4s13) 9th april 2014
@j4s13: There are two main differences between that one and mine. 1: That one is better-proportioned. 2: You need to pay for that one.

@Cohnisgone I said, sigh that there was the non-modular font saying, "Hey! Buy me instead! It only costs that meal at that diner you were planning!"
