@Upixel: Many thanks!, you always see the positive side of my fonts. The downside of this is that you can't write with it, the font is not made for that, it's just a fun of an autumn afternoon between an uncle and niece building some faces of animals with the bricks of FS. As they looks nice, I've decided to publish them, nothing more.
these are so cool and cute :) great visualization and digitization of your creatures. i'm sure your niece will love this and is lucky to have such a creative uncle. so say this is not meant for writing which is too bad. have you thought about using these glyphs to do something like your zinfont? maybe not quite as large. then you would have the animals and could use it for writing :)
@funk king: Just last night before bed I was thinking in something similar to that you tell me now. I think this may be an interesting challenge. Thanks a lot, always.
Wow, how did I miss this one? A positively charming gift for your niece – and for fs. For me, it’s a top pick. I mean, N is for Narwhal!? Awesome! 10 + Fave :)
@ladyfur & @will.i.ૐ:Thaaaanks a lot for these kindly words, compañeros. @will.i.ૐ: I still remember that afternoon with a kind of magic that not happens to me often, it remains me from that afternoon a good taste into my treasured memories... and this rare illustrated font. Thanks again for your time dedicated to my glyphs. (N.B.: And yes, N is for Narwhal).
I enjoyed too, but IMO it's more about clipart than font design… until you can sort the animals (by shape [e.g. 'S'erpent] or by initial [e.g. 'K'oala]).
@dpla: I think these designs are called DINGBATS and are not intended to be used for text but to decorate a text/complement a font :) Thanks to elmoyenique I can add some of hers into my texts (example: the bear makes a nice ö and some of my Z will be replaced by the alligator because of those wonderful teeth ;) )I'm sure I'm not the only person to apply raving creative imagination to discover the possibilities hidden in the FS fonts :)

Can you add the numbers?
The numbers look like this:
0: Means Nothing
1: Pointer Finger
2: Genders
3: Juggling balls
4: Square
5: Hand
6: Dice
7: Rainbow
8: Octopus
9: 3 by 3 square
What animal is "X"? It's the only one I can't figure out.
