Description:
Don´t trust the preview, take a look at the Example! Dedicated to the marvellous DJ Shadow. This is another contemporary Display-Font I created using the Brick-Size-Filters (adjusted at 1.75). It´s not a 3D-Font, or a puzzle or a construction plan, but I think it´s a very consistent typeface:-) Hope you like it, please write a comment if you have any suggestions. More letters to come.

Cool! B looks a bit weird to me though... But it's probably the only consistent solution with the 1.75 filter.
And non-3D, non-puzzle and non-construction-plan fonts are still very welcome! They're much more usable in the end... I have to tell myself this over and over again when I'm starting to feel uncreative and unimaginative when working on a "standard" fontstruction. :P

Very nice. Smart use of the filter.

@shasta: You can't be serious after releasing Punched Out and Escheresk.

nice thick font with lots of character and energy. i admire you guys who work with these in-between filter settings - especially when the results look so smooth. sample is very nice too. never fear - the pendulum will swing back the other way or in some other direction and the current craze will be for something else :)

Good clean work on the 1.75 scale. It's always good to put in a sample to show off its true colors. Props to DJ Shadow too.
