“This Wild Earth” by hwebb

Fri, 24 Nov 2017 23:30:16 +0000

I created this typeface around the theme of gregarious, focusing on gregarious plants. I started with drawing the letterforms in ink using a rolled up leaf. The results were twig-like marks which reminded me of the illustrations from 'A Monster Calls' so I developed the letters thinking how they could work alongside this or another story. The name 'This Wild Earth' is taken from the book and I think reflects the scratchy and bold feel of the typeface.

Apparently, it is quite easy to forget what gets a fontstruction going. Something about ultra condensed bla bla bla. The rest is just a matter of having a creative activity to occupy the mind. And if in the process you can help out a friend, all the better.

Clone of Stiff Script. This is a rendition and tribute to upixel's Stiff Script. I changed the script into a sans font. Its definitely not as good, but I tried. Here is the link to his amazing script - http://fontstruct.com/fontstructions/show/stiff_script

In a last minute rush to have some original fonts in the competition I put my brain to work spitting this together.

“fs lost” by ETHproductions

Thu, 23 Jan 2014 16:12:15 +0000

My final entry in the competition. Inspired by Mazey, zlabyrinths eYe/FS, and wavelength. Each glyph has its own maze, and each maze connects with the next. Tilde ~ and low line _ connect words, grave ` closes beginnings and ends, and the left and right arrows < > are for the start and end. There are also some alternates in Extended Latin A. Suggestions and critiques are welcome. Thanks!

UPDATES:
04/06/14 The whole font has been updated to be one brick taller, and thus properly fit onto a grid. Also, some characters have been redesigned. V2.0
05/13/14 All punctuation has been modified to continue a word maze. V2.1
07/05/14 1000 downloads! Hooray! As a 'thank you', I've completed more of More Latin. V2.2
08/22/14 I've made the accents part of the maze. I've also changed a few characters, and added Œ and œ. V2.3
08/04/15 Added Polish support with Ą, Ć, Ę, Ł, Ń, Ś, Ź, and Ż. Tweaked a few characters as well, and added a crossbar to the ð. V2.4

06/18/16 Added support for multiple languages with more Cyrillic chars and punctuation. Also tweaked a few chars.

Gnomish font from the Artemis Fowl books. Still to do: Q, V, X, Z

“Interlock” by Christian Munk (CMunk)

Wed, 23 Oct 2013 08:28:32 +0000

A font, in which every character consists of two or more interlocking shapes. Slightly inspired by Thalamic's "fs Six Sticks". I might do some alternates in the lower case area, and possibly also numbers. But I really shouldn't. Funny how creativity flows, when you should be doing something else :p

“Switchboard” by four

“Stiff Script” by Michel Troy ~UrbanPixel~ (Upixel)

Wed, 12 Jun 2013 02:15:41 +0000

Very rough Script. Vertical design with 45degres connection. Each individual glyph are unsightly but combine in words it has its charm. -- Use Uppercase for the first letter of each word -- All lowercase are connected.

“Galaxsea Starlight Mono v2” by dialNforNinja

Fri, 17 Feb 2012 01:28:32 +0000

A monospaced, serif retrofuture font designed to be easily legible while still having a distinctive visual style. Full Basic Latin and some extended symbols.v2 improves legibility of "m" and several symbols (mathematical operators, mainly) ~12Kb .zip (getting v3 instead is recommended) 2-21-12: Applied v3 punctuation fixes since this was made a top pick instead. v3 still has more improvements, though, even in the Basic Latin set.

I produced this typeface as part of a project with UWE. Its based on Silhouettes of trees.
