I'm sorry this isn't very complete and far from being perfectly well done, but it somewhat started to make me feel dizzy...;) And even though I'm not very convinced by this, I don't think I'd come up with a way better execution soon.I hope for Mr Escher that there are better tribute fonts for him out there! He'd definitely deserve it...It was by the way funk_king's Impossible Alphabet that reminded me of this unfinished thing laying around in my messy unpublished fontstructions box, and made me take it out and finish it. (If you can call 42 characters "finished".)

38 Downloads38%20Downloads3823 Comments23%20Comments2355 Glyphs55%20Glyphs55I made this for my UWE graphic design first year project "communicating with words". I created this inspired by influences from Ralph steadman and Jackson pollock using the concept of inconsistansy and randomized mark making with ink. the name is derived from a quote from the book "fear and loathing in las vagas". 
I designed it by firstly creating the text with a pot of ink and the back side of a biro pen, then from that i drew them by hand onto A4 sheets of graph paper limitating each line to only 4 given angles, then finally transfering that onto fontstruct wich took roughly 30-40mins per letter.

30 Downloads30%20Downloads3011 Comments11%20Comments1145 Glyphs45%20Glyphs45Mostly inspired by the video game QBert, which was, I'm sure, partly inspired by M. C. Escher. 

IsoMatrix was a font long before Fontstruct, and was much harder to realize with bricks than vectors.

This one is shared thanks to the intricate 3D output of the following fontstructors:

shasta's  Escheresk, 
frodo's Hommage a Escher,
and
funk king's Soma.

It is also released for Em42, because it was created purely with the original set of bricks that Fontstruct started out with.Mostly%20inspired%20by%20the%20video%20game%20QBert%2C%20which%20was%2C%20I%27m%20sure%2C%20partly%20inspired%20by%20M.%20C.%20Escher.%20%0D%0A%0D%0AIsoMatrix%20was%20a%20font%20long%20before%20Fontstruct%2C%20and%20was%20much%20harder%20to%20realize%20with%20bricks%20than%20vectors.%0D%0A%0D%0AThis%20one%20is%20shared%20thanks%20to%20the%20intricate%203D%20output%20of%20the%20following%20fontstructors%3A%0D%0A%0D%0Ashasta%27s%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2Fescheresk%22%3E%20Escheresk%2C%20%3C%2Fa%3E%0D%0Afrodo%27s%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2F210288%22%3EHommage%20a%20Escher%2C%3C%2Fa%3E%0D%0Aand%0D%0Afunk%20king%27s%20%3Ca%20href%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Ffontstruct.fontshop.com%2Ffontstructions%2Fshow%2Fsoma_2%22%3ESoma.%3C%2Fa%3E%0D%0A%0D%0AIt%20is%20also%20released%20for%20Em42%2C%20because%20it%20was%20created%20purely%20with%20the%20original%20set%20of%20bricks%20that%20Fontstruct%20started%20out%20with.

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...
