OK. Here's "VUVUZELA" A typeface inspired by the continent of africa, but mainly by the WorldCup of soccer 2010 in South Africa! To catch on of the strongest associations for me relating to africa, i chose black and white stripes, maybe to remind of zebras or other animal patterns. But the effect also stands for the "swoosh" of a ball flyin by, for just the the "sporty" feel i wanted it to have. Enjoy it. There's an alternative "a" on "=" cheers kix -

Awesome work! Really well done. Great style!
184591734658/10 as usual.
Yes, I cloned it. Don't ask how.
Feels good to be back. I broke my arm, so i guess i have a little "extratime" now...
Of causeI'll spend some of it for working on this. And do some of those spooky masks, cause it's just a friggin good idea :)
thx tylo
Sorry you broke your arm; hope you had fun doing it. :-)
And no, it hurt :)
Do you think the thicker side of D & B should be switched, to be like the C,G,O,P,R etc ?
-i knew, IF someone would ask that question, it would be you :)
Naturally, i already thought about it and it's a questioncoming up within almost EVERY fontstruction i've done:
How much strictness and repetition does a/my font need?
And on the other hand: How much can a glyph be unique, but still fit to the set?
The characters you mentioned are like they are, but on purpose, to "ease" the look a little bit.
thx meek
Your previous work in mashing up contrasting styles has been taken to a new level.
Get well, soon, brother Kix!
BTW, congrats on the FF
It's finally done. I cleaned out some fleas, optimised the letter space and... added NUMERALS!

Sorry, but i don't think there will be creepy masks, it just so big right now...
