UPDATE: I've changed the name of the font from Grecian Condensed, which sounded a little too generic, to Prometheus Condensed -- which may sound a bit grandiose, but I have some bolder weights in the works!
MAN!
this is too good to be true!
omg...
yeah!
hey!
btw...
you got any suggestions about my "blackbetter" font?
any feedback would be great
Thanks again, kix... Now that I finished this one, I am going to start working on the regular weight. By the way, I just replied to your blackbetter query... Maybe I can post some images later.
UPDATE: I've replaced my rather weak cedillas and ogoneks with more robust versions that match the heft of the other diacritics.
UPDATE: Yet another name change, from Prometheus Condensed to Prometheus Light. All of the existing and planned weights in this series are condensed -- it seems inconsistent to name just one of them "Condensed", and adding "Condensed" to all of the weights would make the names too long...
I've made extensive changes to Prometheus Light... Stewf gave me the idea of increasing the grid resolution to get around some problems I was running into with the bolder weights. So the first change was doubling the size of the grid -- thanks for the idea, Stephen! It allowed me to make subtle improvements to many characters.
I also completed the Extended Latin A character set, and added many Extended Latin B characters: Croatian digraphs matching Serbian Cyrillic letters, additions for Slovenian and Croatian, additions for Romanian, additions for Livonian, and a few miscellaneous additions for other European languages.
Last but not least, I eliminated the slightly narrower spurs that I had been experimenting with.
My next task is to do all of the above for Prometheus. Once that's done... I can go back to making the bolder weights of the series!
EDIT: Rob Meek tells me that this FontStruction is now too big to download! It will be a few more days before I decide how to resolve this issue.
ONE MORE UPDATE: I decided to split this FontStruction in two... That way I can continue to make changes to it, if needed. (The other option was for Rob to create a manual download.) I suppose that all other Prometheus weights will also have to be split in two.
Thanks again to Stephen Coles and Rob Meek, and to everyone who's said good things about the Prometheus series!
Amazing work!! very profesional...
Thanks, Axel. I am in the middle of updating the Regular weight of Prometheus, which is why I've taken it offline. I'm a big fan of your FABRICA series, WEIMAR, and BLOCK BLACK, by the way!
Update: I've set the space character on both halves of Prometheus Light.
I've made adjustments to some of the lowercase elements. I lowered the crossbars and gave the upper and lower terminals equal length, due to problems I was having with the new bold weight.
