I remember from back when I was learning Japanese, that the stroke order in writing hiragana, katakana, and kanji was important. I didn't get very far in my Japanese studies, but even then some of the kanji were like 17 strokes each, and each with a specific order of marking the strokes. Thinking of what would be appropriate for a number competition, I recalled the number and order of strokes per glyph idea. Hence, this font. 

The idea brought with it an inherent textfont sensibility. Deciding on the slope of the diagonal strokes was tricky as they rendered those letter either too wide or too narrow. The correct choice was a slope with a flat top or bottom. That allowed the width of the letter whatever I wanted but the flat top took away from the natural marking of the stroke, as in: no one actually writes an A with a horizontal top stroke. Settled on the current slope and width. Still, the letters came together fairly quickly; the kerning not so much. Whether they were adjusted or not, around 10,000 kerning pairs were checked. More than 2500 kerning pairs are included here...and many more still remain. How good or consistent the kerning is is for other's to judge.

Some of the glyphs are quirky, I know. There are already hundreds of thousands of exceptional standard text fonts. No point redoing those. 

Due to the need to show the strokes individually, the font came out as stencil. That was an unintentional byproduct of the idea.

Some strokes are split in two to show distinction between the crossing strokes, but technically they would be continuous. 

The strokes are based on my own handwriting style; others may do it differently. For example, when being careful, I write the Z in three strokes, whereas I suspect others probably write it in one. 

This is not a color font even though it is auto-charcterized as one because at one point I experimented with making the stroke-order numbers gray. I thought about copy-pasting the glyphs in a new FS, but the follow-up thought of having to redo the kerning quickly put a stop to that madness.

For best view of the font, download & install and check out some long block of text in Word with kerning turned on. (This articles explains how to activate kerning in Word.)

Opening Day of Marvel's "Madame Web" movie!
Keeping it simple with a shaded 3D extrude and red spider-sense lines.
I wonder if the Spiderwomen have the Peter Tingle?

I was looking for an excuse to play around with color layers, so I colorized one of my old Dingbot designs.

Opening day of Marvel's "The Marvels" movie! Couldn't resist making a chibi version of Goose, the Flerken from the original Captain Marvel film. #StrongestAvenger

This allcaps font is meant to be used starting with a Capital letter, then lowercase letters following it. But no one will listen, will they?

This is just a silly unicase font with alternates, made with simple squares and triangles (and some few other bricks)... But the colours captivated me. I hope you like the result. PS: You can also find an additional colour space (if you need it) in the "|" glyph.

Opening day of Marvel's Spiderman: Across the Spiderverse!

Timing has been off as of late, with FontStruct error messages of the server being down, but only for this particular font. Other software has also been uncooperative. But there is a universe where everything went fine and there were no problems, but this isn't that one. Weird things also happened with saving the font, where after saving, it just decided to do a global brick swap. Posting it with glitches and all, and I'll fix it later just because. And I swear I hit the Publish button, but hours later, it still said it was private. Let me try again...

Opening day of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3! 
Celebrating with a spacy star filled background texture, bombarded by comets infiltrating multiple dimensional planes of existence. "Guardare" is Italian for Guardian.  

Third font in a series of three colour pixel experiments, made after reading Arcade Game Typography: The Art of Pixel Type by Toshi Omagari. This one has a double shadow, which gives an extruded 3D effect at a smaller scale.

Opening day of Ant-Man and the Wasp::Quantumania! So of course, this particular color font needs to emerge in this space and time. Spinning of the concept of quantum tunneling and Hank Pym's Quantum Tunnel van, this font spans multiple realms simultaneously. Shift dimensions at your own risk.

Coloured version of zulu. You can use the second different version of each glyph to avoid repetition in some words. These colours are inspired by a 2010 poster from the Apeloig's studio.

A cap-font

 Opening day of Marvel's Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever! 
I started this late and suffered the consequences, but had to release something. This took a long time and didn't look like how I wanted it to or as good as I wanted it to, but there it is. WIP as I attempt to clean up and adust stuff. 

Another optical experiment, testing border areas. Sorry if sometimes it's a bit hard to read and it shakes your vision, but that was the idea. It has only been possible using the colour options available to FontStruct Patrons. Thanks once again to Big Rob Meek. PS: "2 in 1 font", the black version of the SVG file also can works like an usual B/W font.

This should have been a minimum font, but minimum can't do color.

The idea was to simulate transparency. After trying out multiple color hatch patterns, it was apparent that it is not going to work. The earlier attempts are left in the font for you to judge yourself their efficacy.

The file is pretty heavy because of having so many anchor points (times 8 layers). Scrolling will be slow. Because the next letter overlapping the previous hides part of the black outline, just outline glyphs are there to stack two layers (colored below, outline above) to get the correct effect.

Is there some trick to make the downloaded font to work in color? The version I downloaded comes as *-svg.ttf. Aren't the color svg fonts in .otf format? Thus, no sample.

Based on an old glyph by the magnificent and always amazing Master geneus1. Caps only. You can find an extra A at the "a" glyph and a little C placed at the "®". See also the grey version.

Basic piano chords. Not sure if this is useful as a font, but I wanted to try something different.

G1 ThunderGawd. Opening day for Marvel's Thor Love and Thunder movie AND final day for the FS HeavyComp! Time to kill two birds with one stone, or maybe feed two birds with one scone.
HeavyComp entry #3. This font features...
• Microserifs
• 7 Color layers
• Chamfered Bevels
• Interconnected Celtic knot patterns with shaded underlayments
• Full weaving pattern on uppercase/numbers, vertical patterns on lowercase
• Thor's hammer Mjolinr on the +, broken hammer on the -

Can't wait to watch another film of Thor in the Taikaverse. Feels like I'm going to watch it about 50x, just like Thor Ragnarok. 

Thanks to this competition, this font brought the challenge out of me. Believe it or not, this is the simplified version of what I wanted to make. Really nice set of submissions in quality and quantity from everyone for the Heavycomp.

 

G1 Defkahn. A somewhat readable modular graffiti font colored over four layers. Independent bubble fills on upper and lowercase sets. Heavycomp entry #2. 

Reference to a barbell. Use - to make a bar between disks. Uppercase is the left part and lowercase is the right part of the barbell. Ziltemir means barbell in my language. Used white colored layer to cover up some black spaces. Experiemntal work with some intersting potential
