This might've taken a few hours, but they were tough. Working with filtered bricks is always tough.
After DjNippa's comment on Hed Kandi font, I visited Rian Hughes's website, and Cantaloupe immediately caught my eye. I recognized some shapes which could be more or less imitated with fontstructor. Here's how this initially looked (I might still come back to this):

I like this kind of surprising beautiful fonts!

Very well done. I really like the g, j, m,and n. :)

Great, the lower case especially works really well!

Cool. I like it.

Impressive very personal derivation. Think it would be a loss of time to try and simply copy your source. I personally would have streched a bit the grid horizontally to make the glyphs look less condensed and the stencil gaps a bit wider...

Thanks everybody.
@AFT. Yeap, you're absolutely right. I just started without any plans on a full font, just stacking bricks until I realized that the lowercase was looking more like the original. So I stopped and came up with smth I hope is different.
I've changed filters from 1.7*1/1*0.85 to 1.6*1/1*0.8, thanks for the advice.
