I really like the way this one turned out. It uses minimal grid blocks to achieve the desired effect (although at ~2x2 and the slivers and the pinhole dots, there are a surprisingly large number of actual bricks used per glyph than evident at a quick glance, although not a single overlapping brick is used without express purpose). I think this is my favorite of all the ones I've done so far. It is with nervous anticipation that I let it free. Go forth and propagate, young font; it's You v World!

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.

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.

Inspired by the fantastic entries in the FontStruct Slab Serif Gallery, here's my first attempt at a Fat Slab. It's got hard hammered edges but with soft and rounded velvety serifs.This is a clone

Simple Matters, originally designed for a logo. I wanted to use a 5 square grid and the effect of cut out metal plates.

Look at this lazy bastard... Has been lying around in my backyard for 1 1/2 years now without doing anything. No wonder it has ended up this fat.

A fat slab serif. Some characters need a bit of kerning.

The idea was to base the shape and cut-aways on the silhouette of a SIM-card. No extension beyond the 5x7 matrix allowed...
