“fs Unoriginal” by minimum

Sun, 23 May 2010 07:32:14 +0000

An unoriginal idea that's been sitting around for a while. Don't go by the January 2010 creation date, no; this is a clone of a clone of a different idea (which may see the light of day yet...or not, whichever comes first ;).

“Bat Country” by loboarches

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 21:58:59 +0000

I produced this for my "communicating with words" first year module on the BA(Hons) Graphic Design course at UWE Bristol, England. It pays homage to Ralph Steadman and is a true testament to what you can do on fontstruct, if you’re willing to spend a week in front of a computer in your underpants.

“zingaling” by intaglio

Maybe shifting to CCAN licensing will discourage pilferers from trying to make money out of my designs. Cheek!

“RM Squarial FS1.0” by p2pnut

Sat, 17 Oct 2009 16:13:48 +0000

An attempt at creating a set based upon each glyph being set in a square (with obvious exceptions such as i, f, 1 etc). The 'Squarial' was the nickname for an old British motorbike - 'The Arial Square Four'

“Valimar” by Frodo7

A font based on the celtic knot theme.

“fs Etched [Bare]” by thalamic

Tue, 25 Aug 2009 02:37:23 +0000

This one started out quite different; a simple three-line font. While making an alternate B, the curlicue was introduced. A clone and many hours later, Etched was born. Later added borders and decorations when the sample called for it.
Then cloned the clone and stripped it bare...because DJNippa was going to ask for it, wasn't he!. :-)

“Hommage à Escher” by Frodo7

Wed, 05 Aug 2009 16:25:43 +0000

This is my homage to the late Dutch master. I tried to capture the impossible geometry, sense of space, and even the colours of his works. You can see and download the new v2 here:
