let me introduce my personal CROSSOVER of "arial" and "times new roman", two of the most famous fonts of western typefaces. 

nicely presented in a scetchy pencil drawn quickie style :)
 
it's just lower case yet, but i wanted to share it.
upper case, numerals and symbols to come. really :)

this is especially tasty in small pixel sizes! thanks for attention!
try it...

249 Downloads249%20Downloads24919 Comments19%20Comments1928 Glyphs28%20Glyphs28Inspired by caseycastille's Chinese Chairs, this started out as an exploration of optional letters for that font. Then I just doodled some repeating patterns. Then I saw how I can fill the patterns inside the letters. They fit together pretty easily for vertical letters, but diagonals were really tricky. The end product resembled Hawaiian leis draped over each glyph. Very floral. So there you have it. Flowers.

63 Downloads63%20Downloads6315 Comments15%20Comments1556 Glyphs56%20Glyphs56I've been seeing a lot of almost-completely-filled-blocks-with-chips-in-them kind of fonts lately. Quite well promoted too. I find most of them to be illegible. No matter what someone says about style and movement and period, to me, type exist to communicate, and legibility is the keystone of that functionality. If I can't decipher the glyph as a letter in a fraction of a second, the typeface has failed, no matter how beautiful it might be to look at as a graphic element. This is what I have tried to do here: taken a current trend and tried to make a legible typeface, staying within the parameters of said style. Most glyphs are quite legible but some are not, like s v w 0 8 9 & etc. I have failed as well.   Plus I am not happy with the consistency—or lack thereof—either. It bothers me that the inside chips had to be rotated from character to character or move them about here and there. I did the uppercase as well...then deleted them all because I just couldn't resolve the similarity between H and N. I may have to find a less ______* new hobby.* stationary? senatory?

62 Downloads62%20Downloads6217 Comments17%20Comments1767 Glyphs67%20Glyphs67There's no inspiration here other than a desire to create a stylized mono-spaced font that is legible at small sizes. It's a solution to a fabricated problem. Getting the basic characters in, it is, evidently, not mono-spaced, even though all glyphs end at the same grid square on the right. One problem is the lack of control over the width of space. Other issues come up as well, such as the period (full stop) has to be way over there to the right of this font's grid to make it the same width as the rest of the characters.Conclusion? Mono-spaced fonts are just not possible in fontstruct at this point. :( Correct me if I am wrong.

this was like a "flash"!
i started another new font, just NOT to forget the idea i had, which i use to do always, when i got lack of free time.
usually i create 3-5 glyphs to remind myself of the style, etc...
but this here took about, let's say 15 min of working time. it just flowed as if some"thing" leads my right hand :)

...more glyphs to come, when i got less other work to do. if i think about the fun this was, it won't take long.
