WORK IN PROGRESS: A semi-pixelated mimic of the classic Bank Gothic font, made entirely out of vertically positioned hexagons. Intended to look electronic and tactical/industrial. Sorta cool. For use in a science fiction novella i'm making. Caps: normal, Lowercase: battle worn/sci-fi. Enjoy and please vote. I would love some constructive criticism on the making of larger fonts like this one.

I would like to make a version of this, except I can't clone it.

Try making your own. I set it so someone can't clone it because I've had troubles with copyright stuff, but it's really easy to make, just trace bank gothic on a computer screen then use it as a guide on fontstruct.

Very nice.  A few suggetsions for consistency:

1. The crossbar on the T is 5 hexes tall in thickness.  All of the other letters are 4 hexes tall.

2. Most of the letters are 5 hexes wide for the vertical/diagonal strokes.  Some, however, are only 4 hexes wide: vertical curves of the S, right side of the P & Q (compared with O & R), stems of the M, etc.

Thanks... I've never noticed that!! I'm still kind of new at this. I'm sure you're familiar with the original bank gothic font, I just wanted to attack it from a new angle. Anyway, really glad you're a fan, and, have a nice night!

Here's my attempt at recreating Bank Gothic, but with a twist.

J and j are one brick too short, and Z is one brick too tall.
