Your designs never fail to delight and impress. 10/10 (even as a work in progress)
As Spicoli once said: Awesome! Totally awesome!
The finished collection of alternates will indeed have unlimited application for logos and monograms as elegantly demonstrated by your Escher-esque æ.
I love the forced perspective illusion. Have you tried inverted-depth, popped-out alternate renderings for any of these glyphs? I mean something like this, except with the the glyph outline as the base layer instead of the solid rectangle used by Tylo.

The upcoming UC would be greeeeeeeeeat!
Might I inquire about this font's stats in reference to your hardware capacity? 1)How many grid spaces high? 2)How many brick shapes used? 3)Any filters?
Frankly, I was a bit tired of this impossible font. This is at least the third incarnation attempting the isometric projection look good enough. A previous version had same-width black and white stripes regardless of their angles (See the picture below. Note the cubes are slightly misaligned because the lack of true hexagonal geometry.) The present version is not perfect, but suitable to give the illusion of isometric perspective.
Glyphs with diagonal strokes raised the level of difficulty, and I'm not sure I found the best solutions for each of them.
@will.i.ૐ: I planned different flavors to make a small font family. Inverted depth was not on my list, but I'll think about it. I could only guess who would be more challenged: the designer or the reader.
@geneus1: This fontstruction is nothing special in terms of technical details. No filters, 69 bricks height, 13 different bricks including 4 custom made.
Most of the time I work on a Sony Vaio notebook (Y series), a tiny but quite capable machine blessed with a crisp 11.6" LCD. However, its screen real estate feels rather limited compared to the gorgeous iMac 27", I left at home, and can take advantage of only on holidays. Needless to say, to work on fonts larger than 50 bricks takes a lot of scrolling and other tricks, and a great deal of patience.
The sample showing ae is terrific!
Although it doesn’t help much to tell you at this point, I would have started this fontstruction with 2x2 filters. This simultaneously cuts down on the amount of brick shapes and the amount of bricks used in each glyph, usually by a factor of four. This also reveals an additional benefit that is immediately recognizable on slower machines. By using only a quarter of the amount of bricks that you would use in 1x1 scale, the software performs faster while copying and pasting, scrolling, and moving from glyph to glyph because the extraneous bricks aren’t there to slow it down. But you would have to paint the bricks efficiently with minimal brick overlap. Working in 2x2 efficiently will also reduce the amount of data that is saved with the fontstruction, thereby speeding up its load and save times.
May 'Rohan' ride on to greater glory.
@p2pnut: Avant browser - Low memory and CPU usage, no memory leak, real full screen mode, one-click Flash filter. Sounds very promising. I'll try it, and tell you how it worked for me.
@aphoria: Thank you for this very useful bit of information.

Found on Behance. Nice.

Another one on Pinterest. It is more like the NE 04 version. Looks great.
2, 4, 6, and 7 arent facing the same direction as the other numbers
Looking at a font like this at a certain point can really create an optical illusion...
