Font directly inspired by Cookielord's "Gargantua". That's why I thought of calling it "Pantagruel" (remembering the name of the other gluttonous giant, son of Gargantua, immortalized by the writer F. Rabelais), but it didn't start with z -hehehe :) - and I chose "zampatoo" (wich could mean something like "eat-it-all"). The final result has lost the rotund, forceful and fresh aspect of the original, but has retained some of its overall heaviness and massiveness. During the process it has also gained some curves. Risky font. Good for headlines, bad for body text. Extra "tt" ligature at the "fl" glyph. Hope you like it. Yummy, yummy... :D

An update to my previous Labrynth font. This revision improves the clarity of some characters. The new version also include proper lowercase characters.

Recently I revisited TrackMania United Forever, a great online racing game from Nadeo. There are other *Mania games out there and their logotypes share the same, "inline" stylistic, so several characters are based on them - the rest is just inspiration. And there's a competition going on too, so couldn't resist. Alternatives for D and O. Time zones are a bit confusing, so I hope that it's not too late! Update: converted remaining uppercase letters to lowercase.

Upper case is high, lower case is low. And it was going fine untill the letter x came along. Well it's a stupid letter anyway, just use 'ks' or 'cs' or even 'cks' instead ;P I think it works now. Call off the spelling reform :D

I think this font is a bit fresher than the first original one, preserving the style of the 70s. It is very smiling, or at least it seems to me when I see it.This is a clone of ztarsky eYe/FS

I'm a big fan of big fat font. This is a modest essay. I try to find a way for skinnier glyph like T or Y to does'nt look to thin compare to rest of font. Unhappy with the G,H,7 crit and suggestion are welcome Was'nt sure as well if I should do a monocase font, I tend to prefer when "Space" is not to large.

Thunderball FAQ:

Q: What's with the name?
A: At some point over the holidays, the movie Thunderball was on and I got to thinking about jet packs, Aston Martins, archenemies, Blofeld, SPECTRE and whether Miami is really worth 100 Million in diamonds or if it might have been better just to keep the diamonds instead of trying to save Miami. I mean, at the time of the movie, Miami hadn't even discovered cocaine yet and really wasn't on the map. If I were Blofeld, I would have picked an entirely different city to hold a bomb threat over. It was the sixties after all, take out San Francisco. Incidentally, at one point in the movie Bond finds himself in the Bahamas in the middle of a junkanoo, which is a kind of street fair where folks wear insanely colorful costumes (mostly of feathers) and dance around. Junkanoo! Now that would make a great name for a font. Much better than Thunderball. Is it too late to change the name?

Q: Your recent output - including this clodhopper - seems to be stuck on the 1.8 brick size filter, is your filter toggle stuck or something?
A: Your Mom's filter toggle is stuck, buddy! And my next font will be called Clodhopper, and it will be yet another font built at 1.8 and it's going to be big and thick so you'll really feel it when I beat on your skull with it.

Q: Whoa! Touchy. Ok, how about that uppercase 'T', it's awfully funny looking, you gonna change it?
A: Oh Boy. You just don't know when to quit, do you? The 'T' began as a spacing compromise but over the last few days it has grown on me - overtaken me really - like some saccharine soaked pop song that I hate but secretly love. So back off on the 'T', it's not going anywhere.

Q: Any last thoughts?
A: Blofeld, Junkanoo, Clodhopper - all rad names for fonts that have yet to be born. Q.E.D.

I took this epic digger while mountain biking in the rain last Friday. No real damage besides a slightly bruised shoulder. But while kneeling on the ground and collecting my wits, I noticed the impression left by my tire treads in the mud and thought there might be a Fontruction idea in there. Hydroplane is the product of that and represents a desire to stay upright, moving forward, with two wheels firmly gripping the terra.
