I've added a side shadow to Prometheus Regular. The inspiration was a typeface from the French type foundry Peignot. Identified as "No. 1229" in their Lettres Fantaises of 1896, it sports a very fine side shadow, which I've attempted to re-create here. (I found the "No. 1229" sample on Hoefler & Frere-Jones' blog - fifth image from the top.)This is a clone

My first Fontstruction for Typography I at DMACC in Ankeny, Iowa. My initial concept was a thin, tall, Art Deco-ish font. The Wi'gls came about when I was stumped on the "M". I think the Wi'gl adds a unique visual theme to the font. Please provide feedback - both positive and negative. Thanks!

Like Masphalt, the original inspiration for this one comes from Stefan Kjartansson's Black Slabbath. I think I played enough with it to make it my own. Like the two-story lowercase g and lowercase a. Squishing that middle stroke really gave this one a personality. I kept all the counters rectangular, try not to hide the hard edges. This is my first time going through the diacritics to give me a holler if you see something wrong.This is a clone

Clone of Prometheus Light (Basic Set), which is based on condensed Grecian typefaces by Darius Wells and William Hamilton Page. Many Grecian wood type samples lack lower case characters or numerals (or both!)... hence my sampling of different sources.This is a clone

A new font that contains a lot of characters, over 350. Most of them are very pixely looking (all characters were at the start, thus Riged (I know its not spelt that way)). I then started to add curves and circles to basic latin and I am going to continue until the font is a good font that everyone can enjoy. If you have any tips that would make this font better then please tell me as I am sure I have made a few mistakes.
*UPDATE - "x", "M", "m" have now been fixed 5th July 2008

An experiment in an IBM-style type... i like slabs and the lines just make it so much more 'modern'...

“Some fonts you just can’t FontStruct”, they would have us believe. I think I came pretty close with this one. Cholla Slab Bold (http://www.fontshop.com/fonts/singles/emigre/cholla_slab_bold/) was advertised on FS, and seemed like a fun challenge. Planning on adding more chars.

Named for the composer of music for Sergio Leone's "Spaghetti Westerns".
Steeper diagonals achieved by setting vertical scaling to 2. Alternate A, V, and W with overshooting apexes. Alt S without serifs. Figures on the way.
Still needs work, especially on the K and Z. Suggestions welcome.

Work in progress. My first serious attempt at a serif...the kerning is really bad.... i prefer the lowercase to the uppercase... oh well...
