Yep another blackletter. This is my first font. I Love blackletter and its formal/modular structure seemed an obvious choice for fontstruct. I wanted something kinda simple and stripped back with caps that integrated well and didn't bring too much attention to themselves. That capital N brings attention to itself...

Clone of Prometheus Light (Basic Set), which is based on condensed Grecian typefaces by Darius Wells and William Hamilton Page. Many Grecian wood type samples lack lower case characters or numerals (or both!)... hence my sampling of different sources.This is a clone

ASL is not a written language, but this font should, hopefully, assist anyone wishing to learn ASL.
The following is a quote from Wikipedia:
"American Sign Language (or ASL, Ameslan) is the dominant sign language of the Deaf community in the United States, in the
English-speaking parts of Canada, and in some regions of Mexico. Although the United Kingdom and the United States share English as a
spoken and written language, British Sign Language (BSL) is quite different from ASL, and the two sign languages are not mutually
intelligible
ASL is often written with English words in all capital letters, which is known as glossing. This is, however, a method used simply to teach
the structure of the language. ASL is a visual language, not a written language. There is no one-to-one correspondence between words in
ASL and English, and much of the inflectional modulation of ASL signs is lost.
There are two true writing systems in use for ASL: a phonemic Stokoe notation, which has a separate symbol or diacritic mark for every
phonemic hand shape, motion, and position (though it leaves something to be desired in the representation of facial expression), and a more
popular iconic system called SignWriting, which represents each sign with a rather abstract illustration of its salient features. SignWriting is
commonly used for student newsletters and similar purposes."

This one looks better in smaller sizes. Best at pixel size.
-----------------------------------
I started with the small letters. Then I tried to create matching capital letters. I'm not sure about other glyphs.
-----------------------------------
Any suggestions/comments on this are welcome:)

For now, apart from the provided 'fi' and 'fl' ligatures, all 'f-' and 'ff-' variations - and other alternatives - are within the capitals. More punctuation and to come and and any suggestions for further alternatives welcome.

Not quite finished - I'm not happy with the X and a few other glyphs most likely need tweaking.
Suggestions welcome, as always.

It start with a very simple design of K and R narrow and tall but especialy a rounded end for stem and detach at the connexion.
====================================
I declined the rest. At one point I add carving inside the of O just for fun and found this avenue interesting. So I play with it, even with unusual glyphs like Iijl
====================================
Add some long alternate glyph for more fancy short word or headline
====================================
a bit unhappy with Vv any crit are very welcome

I was a little bit bored, and this is what happened.
The name is because I have no idea what the origin is, and it's a little ugly.

I'm not really sure how this one came about. It conforms to stencil criteria, but it's not really about that. It also reminds me of pseudo-blurry typefaces, but again that's purely coincidental.
Make of it what you will.

My first real attempt at a small grid (7 x 7 squares) More an exercise in restraint than a serious design.

Fimbriae is apparently irretrievable - so this is the latest incarnation, largely faithful to the original. I'm not yet happy with the V and W, but I need to step back for a while. As always, hints and suggestions are most welcome.

A mono-height, 60s inspired font.
I'm not 100% sure about some of the uppercase characters - mostly the later ones... so all comments are gratefully recieved.
Oh, and more latin characters are on the way...

"Kunchey" is the term used in north India to refer to both a game played with marbles, and the marbles themselves.
