I had another version with slanted A V W, & X, but it looked more cohesive with everything all blocky.

Looking through the gallery, I still don't see any attempts.  Creating a serif font with blocks is very much a square peg for a round hole, but I enjoyed the challenge.  I tried to emphasis all the minor details, like angled stress, or the bottom terminal of the lowercase b.  I spent a lot of time on this months ago, but after a while, just lost the drive to complete all the characters.

I think I played enough with it to make it my own.  Like the two-story lowercase g and lowercase a.  Squishing that middle stroke really gave this one a personality.  I kept all the counters rectangular, try not to hide the hard edges.
