FS

Cut-paper and false italic style font. You have some alternates to improve a few the rare kern (it appears on various groups/pairs of glyphs: ATA, AVA, AWA, LY. LU, PA, TJ, FJ, etc) in the lower case. Don't be affraid, try them, please; the final aspect of some words is much better with they in use. "Zapatiesta" means "commotion, mess, riot" in spanish.

Chunky fun :) great to print in very large size to be cut out. Great font, I'll print some messages with this for my grandson :) Thanks. May I attempt an outline variation of this, or have you planned one already?

Great Work. There is nothing I would change, everything looks professional, and ready to print. Congratulations. 10/10

PS: Marlon Brando.
The Eszett (ß) has no descender, or only in cursive. The pilcrow (¶) o the other hand does have descender.

Excellent. I love the bold and quirky simplicity of it all. You've captured it perfectly in your samples.

@Beloved Frodo7 & Upixel & architaraz & p2pnut & djnippa (and a few others I don't put here now, but they knows I'm talking about they): THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR CONTINUOUS SUPPORT AND TIME DEDICATED TO IMPROVE OUR FONTS, COMPAÑEROS!!! FS still well and creative! In a big part, the merit is intrinsically for you, this unpunctual team who always appears in the difficult moments to help us, we all know that! THANKS! That's unpayable, you know. And this is my little hommage to ALL you FSs and your very grateful efforts with us. I love you.
@meek: Thank you very much for this new TP, jefe. And what a wonderful kind of people are you bringing here, boss!

This is fantastic. It has a real handmade feel to it, something not many fontstructions manage to achieve. I am always looking forward to seeing your latest work.
