Created: 3rd August, 2008 The Slurpee Font - Created and fueled by an unhealthy summer obsession with the world's greatest beverage you can drink/eat with a straw. A little interweb research gave some hints at a few more glyphs than the initial six glyphs in the 'Slurpee' logo. In some cases, like with the 'c' glyph, I noticed that it had been drawn differently in different usage. See here and here.
Being that the current Slurpee logo is Unicase, I decided to try and make uppercase and lowercase alternatives that can be mixed and matched for the unicase feel.
See also Chank Diesel's wonderful font Cosmic, which draws from the old school Slurpee branding.
P.S. The Monster Black Ice flavor that came out this summer was ridiculously awesome.
Q: What's with the name? A: At some point over the holidays, the movie Thunderball was on and I got to thinking about jet packs, Aston Martins, archenemies, Blofeld, SPECTRE and whether Miami is really worth 100 Million in diamonds or if it might have been better just to keep the diamonds instead of trying to save Miami. I mean, at the time of the movie, Miami hadn't even discovered cocaine yet and really wasn't on the map. If I were Blofeld, I would have picked an entirely different city to hold a bomb threat over. It was the sixties after all, take out San Francisco. Incidentally, at one point in the movie Bond finds himself in the Bahamas in the middle of a junkanoo, which is a kind of street fair where folks wear insanely colorful costumes (mostly of feathers) and dance around. Junkanoo! Now that would make a great name for a font. Much better than Thunderball. Is it too late to change the name?
Q: Your recent output - including this clodhopper - seems to be stuck on the 1.8 brick size filter, is your filter toggle stuck or something? A: Your Mom's filter toggle is stuck, buddy! And my next font will be called Clodhopper, and it will be yet another font built at 1.8 and it's going to be big and thick so you'll really feel it when I beat on your skull with it.
Q: Whoa! Touchy. Ok, how about that uppercase 'T', it's awfully funny looking, you gonna change it? A: Oh Boy. You just don't know when to quit, do you? The 'T' began as a spacing compromise but over the last few days it has grown on me - overtaken me really - like some saccharine soaked pop song that I hate but secretly love. So back off on the 'T', it's not going anywhere.
Q: Any last thoughts? A: Blofeld, Junkanoo, Clodhopper - all rad names for fonts that have yet to be born. Q.E.D.

I took this epic digger while mountain biking in the rain last Friday. No real damage besides a slightly bruised shoulder. But while kneeling on the ground and collecting my wits, I noticed the impression left by my tire treads in the mud and thought there might be a Fontruction idea in there. Hydroplane is the product of that and represents a desire to stay upright, moving forward, with two wheels firmly gripping the terra.

A slightly more legible version of NCD Black Square.
Based on a Black Square of Russian Artist of Kazimir Malevich. Only using the smallest amount of manipulation possible to give a real minimalist effect. Whilst still retaining some form of legibility.
The Black Square of Kazimir Malevich is one of the most famous creations of Russian art in the last century. The first Black Square was painted in 1915 to become the turning point in the development of Russian avant-garde.This is a clone of NCD Black Square

Recently I revisited TrackMania United Forever, a great online racing game from Nadeo. There are other *Mania games out there and their logotypes share the same, "inline" stylistic, so several characters are based on them - the rest is just inspiration. And there's a competition going on too, so couldn't resist.
Alternatives for D and O.
Time zones are a bit confusing, so I hope that it's not too late!
Update: converted remaining uppercase letters to lowercase.

These letters, strong as they are, collapse under the weight of their diacritics.

it's part of my typeface project < unrecognizable font>.
a minimalist(maybe??) font. trying to express all caps characters with 9 bricks and there gaps.
my friend says it looks like a maze.
might be some problem with leading(didn't found the option)
ONLY CAPS(cause i haven't figure out how to express lowercase with the limited resources)
