Tylluan (Welsh) = owl (English)
Having looked at this font to add glyphs for a friend's language I decided to change some of the original glyphs, for the fun of change ;) ....... if you saw, remember and now hope to download the original basic English version: sorry, it's out of circulation unless I decide to remove the asked-for glyphs/shapes in this version so that you can DL the new basic Enlish version with support for my language and some fun dingbats. This particular upgraded version of Tylluan won't be downloadable unless the 'owner' of it allows me to offer it to FS members .
I changed some curves, improved the e-mail symbol, added curved blocks and glyphs for some European languages including Welsh (( RAY if you want to use this DO let me know here via PM !!!)) You'll also see the Eiron := aka. interrobang (en), exclarrogatif (fr), Fragerrufzeichen (de) and some asked-for dingbats
This is a cloneFeeling inspired after reading Arcade Game Typography: The Art of Pixel Type by Toshi Omagari, I set out to make my own 8x8 pixel font. I worked with a similar approach to the one I used in the larger grid font offstruct rgb.
First started in Adobe Illustrator, each character consists of three iterations of the same 6x6 pixel letter: in RGB Red, Green and Blue. These were layered, offset by one pixel diagonally, filling the 8x8 box. To achieve additive blending, I applied the "Lighten" transparancy setting. Combinations of overlaying these three primary RGB colours result in the secondary RGB coloured pixels Yellow, Cyan and Magenta. In the additive mixing of coloured lights, the equal blending of all three primary colours results in White. All pixels were then entered manually into the fontstructor and black pixels were added for display purposes.

This started off as something inspired by Michael Biggs' letter design for the B-series of Irish Pound banknotes (1976-1993).
Lughnasadh (1 August) is the Gaelic festival marking the beginning of the harvest season.
I based this font on the unusual lines of letters n, r and k I see on my mum's document folder, since I was old enough to be shown.
In the war my mum was a secretary in hospitals. When she was 21 she made friends with a Hungarian doctor there who helped her deal with the many terrors she saw daily, things most people never realised existed. He helped her survive and became her mentor and protector. He made her a beautiful folder for her documents and letters, from cardboard, kraft paper, inks and obsolete x-ray supports.
He decorated the folder with traditional designs - on the front of this folder he wrote Emlék ................... My mum used the folder until she died, just recently. My parents named me in honor of this man.
This font is in memory of my mother and also of her protective angel whose name I heard too rarely to remember, and sadly my parents never managed to trace him after the war.

Offstruct RGB is a pixel colour font made using Adobe Illustrator and Fontstruct's new layers feature. It is inspired by the additive colour model in which Red, Green, and Blue light are mixed together. More samples here: Behance
