An ongoing experiment fusing perfection with imperfection, this is my attempt to use the limitations of fontstruct as an aesthetic in and of itself, without resorting to an enormous grid to create an optically smoothed typeface. Still working on spacing and filling out the character set. Three new weights are on the way ... bold, light, and thin ... late 2012?This is a clone

            An alternate version of "bootlegger," optimized for smaller scaling in print. "Bootlegger-speakeasy" helps you maintain legibility. For use with original Bootlegger font.            This is a clone of bootlegger

                A reworking of my first fonstruct font, nxtstp, which now includes lower case letters and an expanded character set. Developed for a monthly city/regional magazine feature about Al Capone. If you like this font, check out "bootlegger-speakeasy," an alternate version optimized for use at smaller sizes.                This is a clone of nxtstp

                      I originally designed this in 1998 using Illustrator and Fontographer. That version is saved on a zip disk somewhere and I no longer have a zip drive ... so I've recreated it here using fontstruct. It's quite basic and probably not very original, but pixel fonts were just gaining popularity back in those days. This font always seemed a bit clunky to me, so I abandoned it for a less rigid, related design that I later created called Keyline. My next project is to recreate the three original weights of Keyline. Enjoy!

                                XPRSWY is a font inspired by temporary detour signage ... with some quirks thrown in here and there.

                                    NXTSTP is an uppercase display face, based loosely on early 20th century bus/rail typography. It has a nice hand drawn aesthetic. If you like this font, you'll want to take a look at my newer version, "bootlegger," which has been expanded and optimized for print with 170 characters.
