My shot at negative space with 2x2 filters. Far from perfect, but it was fun. Teris means vise-versa. Thanks & Enjoy!

Great job, takes a new twist on fs light!
2. HOW DID YOU DO THIS O.O
FS light uses a technique beyond my imagination or understanding. So, I tried something on my level, which is actually easy, take a look at the picture below. Set the filters to 2x2.
1st one shows an easy way to create "o", but unfortunately, it's impossible to create letters like "e" with it, so we look for a compromise.
2nd one is that compromise (It's not perfect, but undistinguishable at small sizes).
3rd one shows how one would create "c" with it.
4th one is how you start creating "e".
Hope it's understandable. I think it will even work with 2x1 or 1x2 filtering, so, enjoy your fontstructing!
I recognized the technique instantly having used a similar composite configuration to stack together the tittles of fs Rondeux (pictured below). However, I only struck upon that difficult and innovative solution when I realized none of the provided circle bricks gave me the precise weight and (non-“wilted”) shape I wanted.
But that was all child’s play compared to this mind-bender of a fontstruction.
True, there may be small stair-steps where circular curves join with the linear strokes of glyphs (stemming from the quantizing limits of the composite bricks involved). Even so, this is a very impressive feat. Just consider how many of the lowercase glyphs are made out of a single stacked composite brick. Crazy!
I love it. I think there is something about fontstructing in reverse that is very much akin to carving – or even punch cutting. This and fs light are the Gaga Stencils of fs 2.x. I always took it that afrojet’s Gaga fontstructions were some of the best proofs-of-concept and thus catalysts leading to what became the macaroni brick...so now I am wondering what these two new minimal hairline fontstructions might spark in your imagination – and plans for the fontstructor v.3. :)

Thanks for your kind words, and for your works in FS, they truly inspire us!
This is crazy elaborate! Nice job; harika!
