Something I've been working on for a while, but haven't been able to finish until composite stacking was available. Alternates available in Extended Latin A

Yes, these are real curves.

Comment by LexKominek 20th march 2011

This is really good. I particularly like the l/c g and t. The overshot bowls of the rounded letters work really well, giving it an extra informal kick.

Awesome Futuristic font!

Another greeeat font, master. And the choice of Blake's poem is excellent!: "Tigre, tigre, que te enciendes en luz
por los bosques de la noche
¿qué mano inmortal, qué ojo
pudo idear tu terrible simetría?" Wow.

A wonderful, yet simple design with luscious curves. I could only guess the tricks behind. Yes, the lower case is particularly good. There is a small detail you can't see on the - otherwise superb - demo picture: a pretty little indenture at the corners. 10/10

The curves are immaculate, but I must say that I feel some of the overshoots are too much. Even 1/4 of a brick is obvious when you are working with glyphs at this small size. Just look at the viewer and compare T,U or Y,Z. 9/10 still because of egyMWQ

Thanks again to everyone :-)

@3moDuDe - I agree - I tried adding rounded ends onto the terminals, but it ruined the look I was going for, this was the best compromise I could find within the contstraints of FontStruct.
