Very cool, each letter looks like a space ship in itself.
Superbe work! agree with DjNippa about the spaceship look

Congratulations! FontStruct Staff have deemed your FontStruction worthy of special mention. “SpartanTech” is now a Top Pick.
Well deserved top pick for an awesome design! Cool 3d sample!
I won't comment on the TP, so unfair and unjustified so many times that for me it has no more credit now, but this work is really marvellous, outstanding, it's so good to see my favorite Geneus 1 coming back after his interminable and so boring journey on the Helvetica Planet, and with such a beautiful and well crafted spaceship ! Welcome home, Gene :0)
Just saw you didn't put a "z" on your alternate "lowercase" set, is it voluntary ? The reversed "s" of the "UC" could work as well.
Please, DO NOT associate it with Optimus Prime. Please. SpartanTech is impossible. It's just impossible to create. I don't know how you did it. It spreads out a steely feel, I LOVE IT. FEATURED, PLEASE!!! Sample from Xara, or real 3D software?
AND LOWERCASE DIFFERS FROM UPPERCASE, SO BEAUTIFUL!
Thanks for the link to Hubble telescope photos.
Amazing work gene!
Great work!
Great sample!
I could sit and stare at this all day, Gene. Wonderful stuff.
But it's true, You do it again! Exemplary work, master geneus 1! If I admire you and the FS is for know all this kind of magical fonts! (And suddenly learn, of course).
What an intricate and refreshing beauty. Each letter deserves a study of its own. Reminds me of the spaceships from Sanxion, which, in my book, is an entirely good thing. :-)
another masterwork. amazing detail and an intriguing mash-up of sci-fi, hip-hop, ancient and future. this is where Fontstruct and you excel. could anyone really create something like this in a "real" font editor? well, the real question is: could anybody else create this wonder anywhere? period. nobody except you, geneus. congrats.
Thank you all for the warm reception of the starship SpartanTech on its maiden voyage. We know your options for intergalactic space travel are many, and we thank you for flying SpartanTech spacelines. Current space weather for this flight calls for light meteor showers so we expect slight turbulence. In the event of a space collision in zero gravity, you may be used as a flotation device. Our destination is the Helvetica Planet with a stop-over at Planet Blackletter.
@meek: A quick top pick is always appreciated.
@neurone error: There's gold on the Helvetica Planet. To exclude yourself from visitation is akin to bypassing the wealth of treasures I have already acquired in fontology in regards to proportion, balance, scale, spacing, consistency, and optical compensation. Realize this design wouldn't be possible without going there. Don't even get me started on what can be gained at Planet Blackletter! ;-) To connote such negative judgments to exploratory discovery is to inhibit your own development, IMHO. Freeing yourself from all forms of judgment enables clarity of vision.
And yes, the 'z' was intentionally left out for the sample text to display only the upper case letters. Anyway, it was identical to the capital 'Z.'
@Neoqueto: Haha! Okay, I won't, but now that you mention it, I do see an influential resemblance. It is ironic that you say SpartanTech is impossible because this design was the least planned out of all of my latest releases. Not a single glyph was sketched out beforehand, and the design process was almost on auto-pilot after initially creating the large blocks that appear on the sample. In comparison to Requiemme Decorum which evolved over months of revisions, this one was done in only a few hours. The 3D was done on a low end titling package similar to Xara and all visual components were public domain in the sample, which also came about rather easily. In terms of brick usage, there also isn't anything impossible going on as the only additional bricks outside of the standard set is a composite angle of 1:4. There are more complex 'impossible' connections happening over here and here, but no one seems to have noticed.
@elmoyenique: Thank you. Although I consider myself a perpetual student, I've come to accept any honorary titles given. The creativity and inspiration on FontStruct are reciprocal.
@thalamic: I always do research on all of the relative material you often mention with your comments and learn something new. Thanks for that.
@funk_king: Thank you for the kind and generous words, fk. Another thing that I find ironic is that I can develop text based fonts better in FS than in 'real' font editors. The constrictive grid space that FS provides seems to be the perfect limitation for me to work in. The freedom provided by bezier curves often makes me over-exaggerate shapes. Its much easier for me to build in FS, then tweak the curves later - at least for now. If it looks good in low resolution first, it usually retains that foundation while upscaling. But I guess I could be able to recreate this in another editor, but it wouldn't be as easy or as fun.
Awesome.
"There are more complex 'impossible' connections happening over here and here, but no one seems to have noticed."
That's true, probably. But that only cements your genius status. You make it seem so natural that it never occurs to anyone to question it. :-)
Congratulations! FontStruct Staff have deemed your FontStruction worthy of special mention. “SpartanTech” is now a current Featured FontStruction.
I love the characters that subtly controvert symmetry. More of that, please! Though in this case less is more; very, very well done.
In fact, fantastically awesome. All the more because it was a family engagement. 10/10
looks awsome i wish i could make that
Awesome !
Awesome !
Where's the lower case "Z"? Lovely nevertheless.
u forgot the numbers and the lowercase "z"
how'd u do that, geneus?
all I wanna know is how long did it take to make, its bloody awsome stuff man I am using it in a presiontation for my BTEC work

We celebrate five years of FontStruct with an experimental new feature.
