Could anyone else confirm that zooming in the downloaded version, the font shows some problems, especially with the oblique strokes?
I used filters to make the font bigger, I think its because of that...

Yes there's a problem with the download. Only visible in extreme close up.

Number 4 looks a little odd, looks like it's snapped off. Have you tried any alternatives for it?

Don't know why it showed the jpg again?

yes that's the problem I get too!!!
I'll see if I can do an alternate "4" soon, meanwhile I might have to redo the font without filters... :(

You finished it! That's wonderful. Some of the glyphs are amazing, like the g, i, x, z and 8. 4 needs a splint though. ;-)

The effect is that of crazy railroad ties, laid out to form letters. I love it.

THX Thalamic, only you to cheer me up after the "filter flop".
And yes the "4" had an "accident" and is in need of some healing on that arm... :)

But of course, jm. So filter's is the trick. aha! Did this happen with Eyelash as well?

No I didnt use filters on Eyelash, I checked to see if it had the problem and its clean.

Here's the thing, the filters where just to make it bigger, I can do this font without filters, the only problem will be with kerning it.
(and the trouble of actually having to do it all over again...lol)

I'm not sure I understand. Apart from a jagged edge, the shapes look identical. I am not sure what is the benefit of using the filter. Nice trick with the curved angle shape. And the exploded shape looks awesome. :)

lol...like I said the filters are just to make the font bigger (double the size), makes it easier to kern gliths like the "a","n" an so on.
