Personal homage to one of the many excellent alphabets created by the great north american-italo designer Alexander 'Sandro' Girard (1907-1993). Mixing old style and a bit of new. All UC, with some alternatives in the LC.

Personal homage to one of the many excellent alphabets created by the great north american-italo designer Alexander 'Sandro' Girard (1907-1993).
Mixing old style and a bit of new.
All UC, with some alternatives in the LC:
e = another E,
f = another E,
n = another N,
r = another R,
s = another T,
t = another T,
x = another X,
etc (try all, please).
Here you are the original poster.

@Aeolien, p2pnut & thalamic: Thank you veeery much for your comments, pals. I like this kind of mixed fonts, between the old and the ... new?

I agree, the sample shows exactly the spirit of the time and a great celebration of the man's achievements. 10/10 given already (shame we can't give a note once every months)

@Aeolien: Only one vote is like a galaxy of triumphs for me! Thanks again. I'm glad because you are my friends, you make me rich with your frienship!

This one is quite cool!

@winty5: Thank you very much. IMHO, your fonts are more and more interesting and especially well crafted. Keep on running!

Another point of view for the font... (sorry if I poorly written German words, a little help would be very welcome now, thanks).

I love the first two samples, wonderful integration of text and colour blocks. Looking forward to see your Zcript!

Comment by four 25th may 2013

@four: Thanks, compañero!
BTW: scripts are not my preferred style when I go to create a font... But a challenge it's a challenge! So, put your brains on, boys! (this Stencilcomp has a very high level, IMHO!)
