That's what one of my friends calls "calligraphy". I'm going to make a cooler version as well.

A pixel-city. That means it is a pixelated city. A city that is made of pixels. PIXELS, not bricks.
The letters are as follows:
A--Capitol building
B--Plain building
C--Building cluster 1
D--Factory
E--Building cluster 2
F--Building cluster 3
G--Twin buildings
H--Building cluster 4
I--Bridge
J--Skyscraper #1
K--Central Park
L--Huge Building
M--Double Skyscrapers
N--Plain building #2
O--Plain Building #3
P--Airport
Q--Skyscraper
R--Burned-down building
S--Burned-down building 2
T--Space Needle (creds to my friend)
Space--Road
I'll probably add more buildings. Maybe another factory... I dunno.

Inspired by the works of geneus1 (especially Calligraphique).
I tried to go for sort of a mixture of black letter, chancery, and heavy metal. I love the way the & turned out (combining the E and t. For those of you who don't know, the ampersand is based off of the Latin word for "and", et), and especially the K and J.
By far, this is the best FontStruction I have ever, ever, EVER, EVER made. And probably ever will make.

An experimental bold face with big contrasts. For big sizes and short words...

My starting point was the word 'energy' with inspiration taken from action movie posters and a bold, concrete cityscape.

This typeface has been created based on the theme 'Vibration'. I tried out a wide range of experimentation when it came to producing hand rendered work, as I felt I needed to work out what would best capture the general sense of the word.
I tried using inks on elastic bands, attaching pens to a playstation controller and drawing, photographing food colouring over a speaker; all sorts. Finally, I decided I needed something which really reflected the word clearly. I looked at the white noise and the trails that you get on the television, and applied this feel to a sans serif font I had made based on Georgia (minus the Serifs)
One of the most time comsuming things I've ever done, hope its been worth it.
Any comments welcome.This is a clone

Electrical Energy has opened the doors to whole new worlds of creativity, specifically when it comes to computer technology. The whole concept of video games and computer programming is something we wouldnt have dreamt of being able to do hundreds of years ago. With computer technology getting more advanced everyday, I find it astonishing to see what we have achieved since the very first computers and computer games, and it is mind boggling to think what we may be capable of doing in the future.

inspired by analysing ques forming, mainly at pubs. In addition to experimention with double sided sticky tape and corrigated card to reflect results found. I think the font has a 'tribal' aesthetic about it consequently, first fonstruction...first year project at UWE... theme chosen was 'order' (work in progress)

Typeface initially based on the theme of decay, getting inspiration from the look of old, rotten, decayed wood. Created for my first year project at UWE Bristol, and my first fontstruction.

This is a display font that i have designed during the first term of my Graphic Design degree at UWE Bristol. I started with the word chaos, where i looked into propaganda posters, the breaking of objects and ordered lettering.
so using the idea of breaking apart text and overlaying outlines of a the font I created a visual chaos.
I believe that the font could be used in promotional posters and other advertising pieces.
All feedback is appreciated!This is a clone

This is my first attempt to use fontstruct, which is a project given to me during my first year of studying graphic design at UWE; Bristol.
Initially the typeface was inspired by the product of organic decay. I cut out strawberries, apples and tomatoes in the shape of letters and left them to decay on a sheet of paper. When removing them, they left an interesting stained mark on the paper which I used as my basis for the letter forms. Latterly I have used the typeface "Hobo Std" as inspiration because of it's curvaceous body and similarity to the remaining marks of the fruit and vegetables. It is a display font having because of it's better readability on larger sizes. This due to the stained effect as well as the letters are bold. This is a clone

This is a font that i have designed and created as part of a project given in the first term of my first year doing Graphic Design at UWE. The initial theme for my project was "Decay" where I researched different types of rotting, erosion and decay of quality in every day objects. I then came to look at crumbling brick walls and developed my font from there. I've tried to show a lack in defined edges and emphasise a crumbled, smudgey typeface. I think it could be used as a relatively playful font,but could have strong impact if used for communicating the idea of decay or decompositon. This is a bold font, meant to be used big! Feel free to comment or discuss !

So, this is basically a very dirty font. Took me a lot of effort to make it. I will add more letters and things like that to this font later, but for now enjoy this fine piece of work.

This font somehow seems to lean to the right.
Must be a mental byproduct of some kind.

This is an exercise to explore potential combinations of bricks to get the most pleasing curves close to Bezier-based fonts. The result, well, not tremendously original in shape, but demonstrates the power of FS. Long live the Brick!

this was inspired by a font sample found here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/insect54/2109838957. this was shared by Afrojet when he released his San Serious series. this is from the book 'Fodor Catalogue' designed by Wim Crouwel featuring works by Jurriaan Schrofer. thanks anTyp for providing clarity :)

A modernist modular from the block! I've added numerals and ampersand and hyphen glyphs. No plans for any more additions.
