Many Grecian wood type samples lack lower case characters or numerals (or both!)... hence my sampling of different sources.

After several modifications, this FontStruction has become so big that I had to split it in two to make downloading possible! The Basic Set (this half) features all of the Basic Latin and More Latin (a.k.a. Latin-1) characters, while the Extended Set has all of the Extended Latin A and several Extended Latin B characters (Latin-based diacritics for the Central European, West European, Baltic, and Romanian languages, plus special characters for Croatian, Slovenian, and Livonian, among others).Clone%20of%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2F76671%22%3EPrometheus%20Light%20%28Basic%20Set%29%3C%2Fa%3E%2C%20which%20is%20based%20on%20condensed%20Grecian%20typefaces%20by%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffamousamericans.net%2Fdariuswells%2F%22%3EDarius%20Wells%3C%2Fa%3E%20and%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.typography.com%2Fask%2FshowBlog.php%3FblogID%3D34%22%3EWilliam%20Hamilton%20Page%3C%2Fa%3E.%20Many%20Grecian%20wood%20type%20samples%20lack%20lower%20case%20characters%20or%20numerals%20%28or%20both%21%29...%20hence%20my%20sampling%20of%20different%20sources.%3Cbr%3E%3Cbr%3E%0D%0A%0D%0AAfter%20several%20modifications%2C%20this%20FontStruction%20has%20become%20so%20big%20that%20I%20had%20to%20split%20it%20in%20two%20to%20make%20downloading%20possible%21%20The%20Basic%20Set%20%28this%20half%29%20features%20all%20of%20the%20Basic%20Latin%20and%20More%20Latin%20%28a.k.a.%20Latin-1%29%20characters%2C%20while%20the%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2F108686%22%3EExtended%20Set%3C%2Fa%3E%20has%20all%20of%20the%20Extended%20Latin%20A%20and%20several%20Extended%20Latin%20B%20characters%20%28Latin-based%20diacritics%20for%20the%20Central%20European%2C%20West%20European%2C%20Baltic%2C%20and%20Romanian%20languages%2C%20plus%20special%20characters%20for%20Croatian%2C%20Slovenian%2C%20and%20Livonian%2C%20among%20others%29.

37 Downloads37%20Downloads373 Comments3%20Comments3153 Glyphs153%20Glyphs153My take on Hellenic Wide, which I first saw in a Frank Chimero illustration.  Some of his work looks ripped right out of the 50's and I love it.  The capitals all fit pretty well into the FontStruct schema.  I'd like to revisit this one sometime to see if it would work with a lighter stroke and skinnier character width.My%20take%20on%20Hellenic%20Wide%2C%20which%20I%20first%20saw%20in%20a%20Frank%20Chimero%20illustration.%20%20Some%20of%20his%20work%20looks%20ripped%20right%20out%20of%20the%2050%27s%20and%20I%20love%20it.%20%20The%20capitals%20all%20fit%20pretty%20well%20into%20the%20FontStruct%20schema.%20%20I%27d%20like%20to%20revisit%20this%20one%20sometime%20to%20see%20if%20it%20would%20work%20with%20a%20lighter%20stroke%20and%20skinnier%20character%20width.

I think I played enough with it to make it my own.  Like the two-story lowercase g and lowercase a.  Squishing that middle stroke really gave this one a personality.  I kept all the counters rectangular, try not to hide the hard edges.  This is my first time going through the diacritics to give me a holler if you see something wrong.Like%20Masphalt%2C%20the%20original%20inspiration%20for%20this%20one%20comes%20from%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fhowdoyouspellkjartansson.com%2F%22%3EStefan%20Kjartansson%3C%2Fa%3E%27s%20Black%20Slabbath.%20%20I%20think%20I%20played%20enough%20with%20it%20to%20make%20it%20my%20own.%20%20Like%20the%20two-story%20lowercase%20g%20and%20lowercase%20a.%20%20Squishing%20that%20middle%20stroke%20really%20gave%20this%20one%20a%20personality.%20%20I%20kept%20all%20the%20counters%20rectangular%2C%20try%20not%20to%20hide%20the%20hard%20edges.%20%20This%20is%20my%20first%20time%20going%20through%20the%20diacritics%20to%20give%20me%20a%20holler%20if%20you%20see%20something%20wrong.
