This was fun to do.
---Not liking the e and the s so much.
---While doing the sample, I found that even though the inter-character spacing is specifically set to one grid space wide, Photoshop was rendering the spacing differently per character pair. Same in Illustrator. Curious, I opened it in FontLab Studio. Turns out, the characters that have a half-wide brick left of the left edge in FontStruct are another half-brick-width over in the TrueType file. The sample is, therefore, manually kerned back to original.

@MagicSam: Alrighty.
@afrojet: Ever since your brilliant sessions I've been meaning to do something at a small grid scale, but no idea ever came. Eventually, I put it out of my mind. Then, yesterday, I found myself mesmerized upon seeing typerider's avatar on Focus on FontStructors interview. The lowercase t here started out with me reproducing his logo 't' in FontStruct. Then the design took on a life of its own. When the final construct turned out to be segmented, I thought it was a good candidate for your own coloring technique. Pale in comparison, I know, yet it is meant to be a tribute to you. Glad you liked it. Thanks for inspiring me.
As a relative newbie and rank amateur I hesitate to even make a suggestion. But here goes anyway :)
I'm sure you will have already tried (and discarded) these ideas for the s. The one on the left sort of echos the S.
Lots of variation and possibility here.
@Frodo: The smaller you go with the grid, the more the bricks shine. I always admire the fontstructions done using the minimum of bricks. It was one simple attempt at that. Thanks for appreciating it.
@pnut: They do have a life of their own, don't they? Thanks.
@afrojet: I started out with having all my fontstructions clone-enabled. A couple of bad experiences in the beginning with clones of my babies made me change that policy. I am encouraged by the new active fontstructors' personalities, so I am re-revising my MO. And I love your mods that are so simple to do yet completely transform the font into another. You are awesome.
@gf: As are you. Thanks. :-)
