A 2x2 design which started with a "split" aesthetic and ended up with a "stenciled" one. I embraced the change and now all these glyphs are functional as stencils. They contain minimal stacking and no composites.

In some cases the inside is connected to the outside at only one point. If you decide to use this for stencilling, I recommend using a stout material for the stencil and storing it with care.

The name comes from one of the many, many old joke bands which I created.

Recommended: Use with kerning turned on!

Going for an industrial sci-fi look. The hard angles give these letters the appearance of being made by some kind of tape or roller.

This font was originally designed to be uppercase only. So, the lowercase might be considered as an alternate set.

Original size: 24pt (24pt, 48pt, etc. look most crisp when not using antialiasing)

My theme was messy. I began looking into paint and the effect it can give when the ink runs out towards the end of the stroke. This led me to looking into graffiti and the 'messy' appearance it can give a place. I took photographs on my way home from Arnolfini of any typographic graffiti I came across and I traced the ones I was fond of. I particularly liked this one that had drips at a slight angle as it was written on a slant so I reproduced my own interpretation of it.

The font is based around the theme 'messy'. Each letter is inspired by messy paint/ink strokes; therefore no letter is exactly the same as another. However they all work well as a whole complementing eachother with small similarities. The font is designed to be used for headers, for example art posters or flyers. It could be used for big bodies of text, however slightly less suitable as it may become harder to read if it's made too small. The font could also be used in any colour and still grab attention!

These are the types of letters you'd find scattered through GMod horror maps. Ya' know, the ones made in MSPaint.

This typeface was based on the theme 'Messy'. I tried out a few experiment through sketches and rendering, trying to get as messy as I can and also at the same time challenge myself in creating something messy. I looked up on the word messy for different sort of meanings to it, and I also rendered down all sorts of images to get the right font to the theme. I did mini cut outs, played around with colours, tried using all sorts of lines and rendering. I finally came up with a way to portray the theme, using ink/ paint. We always encounter smudges and splatters in our work and it becomes a big mess. I also found the inspirations through several artist, especially Paul Jackson Pollock who did abstract paint pouring.

This is one of two typefaces that I have created in response to a brief set in my first term studying Graphic Design at UWE Bristol. My chosen theme for the six week project was decay. I decided to creat two fonts, an original and a decayed version. I took inspiration from graffiti and tagging that I photographed around the streets of Bristol. 'Spray' is my interpretation of the spray painted letter forms that crowd the walls of this city. www.jenniferlouisejohnson.tumblr.com

A modern font based on the esthetic of stenciltypography. Every letter is, as the name suggests, separated.

This is my first FontStruction while currently studying graphic design at Bristol UWE. Lots of experimentation solely using paints; quick hand movements and flicks to produce a messy, unrefined effect. Working in less than 1 second for each letter (with real paints), used as reference. Inspired by East Asian calligraphy.

A TRUE HAND WRITTEN font.
No two letters are the same, or use any of the same brick configurations.
From my very own hand using an Edding 5.0 Calligraphy pen.
Only the upper case is available for now. Due to a heavy work load this week, and several non-starter comp entries, I've unfortunately been unable to fully complete the lowercase and numerals. :-(
Hope you like it.
All comment and crits appreciated.

Spray.ME is a classic stencil typeface, a bit inspired by Impact, but with a little twist. Hold Shift while typing for a dirty effect of fresh paint dripping from the letters. Stains, splatters - just like it was sprayed a few seconds ago. "!" hides behind "\" and "|".

I realize that there are tiny holes scattered over letters with the paint effect, if this font is going to be disqualified for that, I can remove them. :3

Ah - there's a tiny spray can dingbat!
