I love Paint.NET. x3

Aw no! I destroyed the live feed with my screwing around. I'm sorry, everyone! D:

No problem, I do it all the time :)

Really cool font, but N, L and X seem too narrow to me. Consider making a non-stencil version.

Comment by Neoqueto 14th october 2012

Thanks for the advice, you're right, it does look much better!

And with the non-stencil font thing, I actually started this font without it being stencil. Then I realized how well it'd work in stencil. :D

Beautiful! 10/10!

Maybe you can consider making A and W rounded, and possibly V? Also, F runs into G and S and U seem a bit wide while D seems thin. The lowercase g is a beauty. ;)

When I started this font, I really wanted there to be pointy characters! So that's a no for that one. F runs into any uppercase character, it's made for legibility in basic typing, not using ALL CAPS.

The g is the star of the font. ;)

Thanks for your advice on the wide letters! I'll probably change those. c:

Nice curves, love the g. The k would usually be the same height as the rest of the lowercase, now it seems to jump out from the sample text.

And as for the sample images, you can edit the first post to change the picture so you don't have to repost it.

Very nice job, spacing may need a bit of work. 10/10

Comment by four 14th october 2012

I put this font through a lot of testing to make the spacing as good as possible. What cases did you find the spacing not to work that well?

Thanks for the advice about the sample pics, Yautja. I thought when I edited it it'd just add a new image!

The k took a while to do, Idk if I'll end up editing that. By "same height," do you mean the upper line of the k would be level with the rest of the lowercase?

Comment by Echo (Rahi-Tak) 14th october 2012

The space between c and k seems a bit narrow. I like that g too!

Comment by four 14th october 2012

@Rahi-Tak yes, also the uppercase K has a different style so it could be changed to match the k (also so it doesn't get confused for H in small sizes).
