  • Supposed to be fitting a sci-fi/industrial/dystopian scenario.

    My first font. So suggestions for improvement are very much appreciated.

I really like all the letters, except the uppercase i. It just doesn't remind me of an i. Accents are really awesome though.

Waiting for more glyphs to appear :)

I like it.

@Cookielord: The "I" design is from old english-styled characters. It's common in Fraktur.

Given your choice for I, I would make J mirror it with a descender—or have an optional design. I think the umlauts (diaereses) would look better above the capitals.

Welcome to Fontstruct :) This first FontStruction is a neat sci-fi or electronic dispaly inspired design. TCWhite: diaresis above caps, ok but I wonder if to place them inside at top is more sci-fi ?

@ Aeolien: I like that idea. Removing the bar from A works well. I would place the U's at the same level as A and O, however, so that it balances design-wise. Personally, and preferentially, I would do the J, K, M, Q, W, i, j, k,l, m, and w, differently. For the K's, I would mirror the legs of X, the same for R. I would remove the right bottom of i, widen the M's and W's, and shorten the j and l. But, that's just me. :)

The proportions of the font are good. Yes, dropping the Ü diaresis to the height of Ä diaresis will look better.

Woah! Thanks for the feedback.

I changed K, R, X, Z, k, x and z so they would fit better with the style.

And I replaced i with an older idea I had for it.

See, I want uppercase letters to be shaped like a square, lowercase letters just as wide, everything with a certain consistency. 

I guess there are way better ways to design those letters, but I want to keep said consistency.

Wow, the font is even better than it was! Good job!

Comment by Cookielord 12th february 2018

Cheers.

I changed even more, can't remember what, though. :D

I'm almost done, I think.
