Ever have one of those fonts that you just have to get out of your system because it's there in your list, taunting you in until you finish it? This is one of those. Someone's likely done something like this before, but I just needed to see if I could do it. I did... and I even managed to keep my lunch down. As with most sugary sweet confections, this is best in small portions.This is a clone

My first attempt at a script font. Did you know that out of over 4000 fontstructions, there are only 40 in the category at this time? That's like 1%. Here's to increasing the percentage. Hopefully I'll be able to do an uppercase.This is a clone

You can thank Funk King for evoking this out of me.
Included in the sample image is a silhouette of a move called the Backhand 1990, invented by yours truly as one of the founding members of Rock Force Crew in the SF Bay Area. Bust It!

This is my first typeface, it is based around the theme of "fluid". I was initially inspired by foreign alphabets/symbols/logograms. In particular, Arabic characters in a Chinese calligraphic style. While this start point could have lead to more experimental outcomes, I have chosen to keep the look simple so that it would be more versatile.

Little experiment of mine, trying to design a script font that really connects all the letters. As you might guess from the quality of the uppercase, I started with lowercase and had quite some trouble finishing the uppercase... And I know there are (obviously) always the connection strokes peaking out at the end any word, but funnily this imperfect look has started to grow on me during the fontstructing.
I also know there are still lots and lots of inconsistencies and letters that badly need a rework, but I thought the constructive criticism of my fellow fonstructors might be more helpful and efficient at improving this... So I'm grateful for any suggestions!:)
Oh, and yes: The kerning is very painful at times, but I can't see how I can improve that under the constraints of the script and the character forms. And obviously the script thing doesn't work with uppercase only text.

I wanted to make a vertically heavy font, and what better sources of inspiration than Arabic script and Western typography. I think it made a good mix; it seems very desert like.

1 x 1 filter.
Nearly all angles are 1:8 for the horizontals and 1:4 for the verticals.
28 grid squares from the lowest point to the highest across the set.
For reference, the lower case 'o' is 11 squares wide and 13 squares tall.
Each character has a 1 or 2 block overlap on the right side to make the connectors touch the next character.This is a clone

Try the Pixelview!
..or better:
Type something!
This looks surprisingly sweet!
Especially in small sizes.
I started this with the lower case, which i'm very proud of, cause they were hard to "connect".
Also reminds me of metallic chrome lettering on old cars :)
Itallica is not really made for typing in high cabs, but i works awesome if you start words with them and continue l/c...
enjoy!
numerals and more symbols later...

Based off of the legendary American Uncial. It was very difficult, as this is my first DOT font, but I am pleased with the results. I had to cheat on the x-height a few times (especially on s), but most of the letters are exactly like their counterparts in American Uncial. Please, do not use this font to write in any language other than Gaelic. Nah, just kidding. Use it however you want. Except if your language isn't based on Latin, because I only have Latin characters.

Starting from the word fluid I developed this font with the aim of incorporating several characteristics pertaining to the word itself. Each letter in the font flows from one to the next; a sense of motion continuing throughout. I looked at surface tension on liquids and tried to make the shape of the font reflect the constraints of this tension. I especially looked at wax turning from liquid to solid and the rigid shape it formed. It's quite simplistic so I would like to work more with it to see how I can include more texture that could link with the light reflections on the surface.

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.

My final say on current competition. Jalgas (Жалғас, Zhalgas) is my name, it means continuation, adjacent. Same technique as in Aroth, but the result is hopefully different. Letters are also stencil, but islands appear when forming a word (e.g. "off"). In progress...

Influenced by the album Juturna by Circa Survive, I created this font from my listening experience. Also, Esao Andrews album art for Juturna also coerced me into a more grungy feel for the letter forms. I also don't see many typefaces like this, so I wanted to design letters that are thinner and might be perceived as nervous or appalling, maybe even hastily scrawled, like last words before an unplanned death. I don't plan to start a revolution, just enjoy Juturna.

The kerning sucks, but it's such a tight grid there isn't much I can do.
The lowercase o is a perfect circle of 4 macaroni bricks.
That gives me an x-height of 4 bricks which made some letters a bit difficult...I'm looking at you lowercase s.

A retro cursive font. Any word will make a continuous line. To cap the front, use '~', to cap the end use '`',and make a space between words, use _. In previews some gaps may show between letters, but in actual use they do not appear.
