I genuinely enjoy creating fonts. I like to look at how letters are associated with each other, visually. Perhaps how a style should carry itself through a character set.
Sometimes the relationships between a capital letter and its lowercase counterpart. I may make little adjustments so that once in a while these often visually orphaned letter associations actually make sense when they otherwise wouldn't. Other times I welcome the antithesis of that, where it is never a consideration.
I previously design logos, websites, branding packages and marketing campaigns for small business. I was big on social marketing, loved it. Thanks to Facebook, Google and Twitter for betraying all of mankind and screwing every one of us, I no longer feel that my profession is a worthy endeavour. I lived on social marketing and they conducted treason against all of humanity.
So, I am retired and now my art is my full-time, fonts included. I still support my reg/hosting customers, as required.

I carefully selected and placed my bricks in such an order so that they would make perfect sense to me and speed-up the character making process and... WTF? I just can't deal with it. Can we please LOCK the User Bricks down?

Still mulling this one over.
Reserved font name "Vertalics" (previously known as "Chicken Scratches") was created by and is Copyright Doug Peters 2018, and released as freeware under the SIL Open Font License. It is currently a limited character set novelty font and would require a lot of time and patience to develop it beyond that because of the nature of its design. You are welcome to carry on the work on your own, though I would like credit for the concept, initial design and the working start on it.

Rules of Aximen font design project:
1. All letter characters and numerals must incorporate a section of the staff (any part of it, the staff is fully represented by the I).
2. Norse Futhark usually used a vertical line at the top and bottom of each rune to show it's flow across a stone or woodworking, that would follow the contour of the media. This means that no character can share the base line, nor can it share a part of the top line (as it's complete design, if sharing a guideline, would effectively disappear, like an L with an underline at the baseline would look more like an I). These are immaginary lines in uppercase, but the same glyphs will be used in lowercase which will offer a lowline directly below and sharing the base line at the top edge, as well as a top line at maximum character height where the bottom edge will share the top line (top of character boundry).
3. Accented characters will show accents below the low line or above the top line and the appropriate top or bottom edge of these lines will act like character boundry. In the uppercase register, these accents must mirror the placement of the lowercase, even though the low/top lines are immaginary.
4. Extra points for incorporating more of the staff into the actual character design. The staff line itself (again, represented in the I) represents the line used between characters in some Futharc runes.
5. Alphanumeric characters should represent modern letters and numbers, but not look modern. But, they do not have to look like runes, either. Yet, they should still be readable, though not necessarily well adapted to speed reading scanning of normal letter shapes. No character need to comply with Summer Institute for Linguistics standards, guidelines or rules, and the characters that bend such rules the farthest are considered the best.
6. Each character should be taken indivually as if the only design problem. Individuality and uniqueness of each character is prized well above unity as a typeface. Diversity, even of style througho0ut the same character set, is encouraged and applauded.

My most recent debacle is no longer a tragedy thanks to Sed4tives (Thanks!). ;)
I made an extra long space in Specials so that the line height and/or leading would work out with the 2x2 blocks (at least, in Fontstruct previews).
The idea is to have a spinning ying-yang symbol as the pattern to qualify it as a counter. Plus, it's a container, using the negative space where the pattern is broken-up, to define the characters. I also used mini ying-yang symbols to round some of the edges, or perhaps to define a boundry that required it.

This is a cloneGigantic was inspired by Giant. But it had a flaw, a blown-out brick. Gigantic 2.0 eliminates that brick with a much simpler design. This font also represents my initial very basic (mis)understanding of the power of the connect bricks, which I have grown to love and embrace, and yet still not able to completely grasp.

This is a clone of Knot Cartoon FS"Discopatentiously Obstructivenating Free Demo" font Copyright 2016-2019 Doug Peters and is 'Free for Personal Use' only to demonstrate the full font from which this beast was cloned ("Discopatentiously Obstructivenating" which is also by me, Doug Peters, and I will continue to develop that version).
This is my own clone of the original version. It may look a little like my Kindegraf or Sketchy fonts, as it's my handwriting with a mouse, and I bet there isn't a lot of deviation there (with the handwriting) but it IS different. This free version almost has a Basic Latin character set. More characters would require more work, so any further development will require a purchase or donation. Happy to do it if anyone is interested in a more complete font, but not for free.
