A less-than-successful attempt to use half-bricks in a small fontstruction. Retaining the rounds becomes a bit of a juggling act, forcing odd decisions that lend the design a certain frisson, shall we say.
So many decisions... which side to put the half-round stress on... which glyphs to include the funny spurs on... you wouldn't know it but quite a lot of (wayward!) thought went into this abortion.
Interesting experiment. I think the lowercase works pretty well, but the uppercase isn't quite as readable.
The l/c is amazing, considering the constraints that you set yourself. I can only just start to imagine the lengthy trial and error process that leads to this sort of result. More power to your elbow :)
