This has been in the making for quite some time and I was only able to work on it because of the new fontstruct features. all bricks i used for this fontstructions were half-sized bricks. i mean half-circles, half-sized blocks and so on. also i worked with 1.75 scaling. thanks to this kind of setup i was able to create roundings, that go a little over or below flat-shaped letters. see the sample. also lower case letter like l, k, h and so on are a little taller than upper case letters, like in "real" fonts. the disadvantage is seen on M,W,m,w where the stem in the middle is a little too short... i had to use a very weird workaround for these 3-stem letters, so this is as good as it gets, unless fontstruct is going to have an empty space brick, that would allow me to create a fitting composite. i used lots of composites and lots of stacking. also the spacing isn't very nice, i'll see if i can do anything about that.

Very nice. We're working on something like that empty space brick you describe - that is the missing ingredient in the composite brick feature. It will be much more powerful soon!

Very nice saberrider.

@meek Yes! The empty space brick would be very useful.

I love It a perfect 10 for me

Bravo!

Your approach to overshoots here cleverly uses the jitter possible when using half-sized bricks with a fractional scaling scheme. Concurrently, this factor (2-1.75=.25 brick jitter) generates your slit-like counters with a highly controlled placement of bricks.

Your use of stacking is also quite lucid – the cleanness and consistency of the design is greatly enhanced by them (and also conceal well enough the few inconsistencies). I think with the new composite stacking feature, you can take this design again to the next level!
