Very Nice! If I could vote 11, I would. But unfortunately, I can't. So I'll just give you a 10/10 and a fave. :D

WOW! You and Yautja are just hammering out new fonts every day! This is great. The swirls seem non-modular. I love the p z &. Well, I actually love every letter, but I think the capital i (I) is too tall. Dynamic, beautiful, flowing. 10/10 + fave :-)

Amazing work! Not so keen on T, t, Z, z. Great font though! 10/10

THIS is why I love FS…inventive and CONSISTENT style emerging out of modular limitations on a small grid. The effect is bizarre and wonderful… at smaller sizes, the forms are chunky bubbles/frankfurters with with highlights, but at larger sizes it becomes an elegant calligraphic script. This is what you get when you cross fearless experimentation with a trained typographic eye. 10/10 & add fav.

How do you come up with this stuff??? Appears shiny, almost non-modular, use of the new bricks... that x is divine... well all the letters are, even the incomplete Cyrillic :D 10/10!

Amazing! Shiny and looks like it wasn't made by modular bricks. You master the new bricks so fast...

10/10 +fav

I'm curious how you make numbers of great font with just a few days :P

Thanks eveyrbody for attention and special mention, always enjoyable :)

@demonics: I tried making its height same as cap height, but it looked small, so.. Well, I don't usually hammer, but Yautja actually does, the guy is unstoppable! :)

@fugitivelove: Thanks for warming words. I love FS too.

@Umbreon126: I don't know :) I just try this and that until I see potential for further developement.

@djnippa: This reminds me, Tolkyn means wave, curly etc from kazakh.

@cablecomputer: Well, maybe it's because I've got some spare time right now. :)
