Tue, 03 Nov 2009 16:23:59 +0000

The Pet Shop Boys had a competition to design the poster for their North American tour to support the Yes album.This was one of the submitted entry, designed by CrowdSpring user k_anderson [not me]. This font is an expansion of his/her idea.

Capitalia with rounded corners... Hope you like it! There's an alternative ampersand on 1/4.

“The Ornamental Circus” by AbbieVickress

Tue, 24 Nov 2009 18:57:03 +0000

A typeface with strong influence of traditional circus posters with a modern twist. This flamboyant font is an example of display type. Due to its large amount of detail the font is not advised for dense text. It is most appropriate for headlines, signage and titles.

Victrola is a florid Victorianesque display font that might look at home on a vaudeville poster or a bottle of liver tonic. Includes diacritics, small caps, and lining and small caps figures.

“Capitalia” by shasta

Sat, 08 Aug 2009 12:11:58 +0000

This is the result of my frustration of never getting capital A's with diagonals steep enough to go all the way down without getting way too wide: A tall font with 2x1 grid stretch, with - guess what - a capital A whose diagonals aren't steep enough to go all the way down without being too wide... Well, whatever! :P Maybe somebody likes it anyway! Alternate ampersand on 1/4.

“Multiverse Diagonality” by geneus1

Wed, 03 Jun 2009 19:15:09 +0000

Clone of MULTIVERSE*basic. New addition to kix's Multiverse family. I took some liberties with adjusting the 45 degree lines in order to make the highlights work. A really weird moire pattern appears on the font preview, the pixel preview shows a nice embossed grayscale effect.

“Crouwel's PaperCuts” by igorrossi

A second contribution to the Crouwel's fonts replicas. This one was also inspired by a poster, for an exhibition at the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven (picture in the comments section). I thought it had never been reproduced before, until I came across edgar fernhout by funk_king. Next time I'll search on Fonstruct before I start a new font but, well, we have both good taste... I take the opportunity to thank the fonstructors who introduced me to Crouwel's work.

“maven pictograms” by funk_king

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 02:48:07 +0000

decided to see what this would look like in fontstruct. the maven poster is a classic and the symbols were ripe for fontstructing :) one or two i did "freehand" but for most i used a grid overlay over an enlarged image of each icon. even then it was a challenge. i'm not much for pixel manipulation but it was a good exercise :)
