Inspired by the Logo of The band Scorpions first created back in 1975.
All other letters were built based on the letters in the original logo by me.
I found the original font of the logo, called "Lady Starlight" (you can check it out here:https://www.dafont.com/lady-starlight.font?text=SCORPIONS) quite boring and thus made this like a recreation. Hope you find it much more interesting.
HeavyComp entry number 1
Enjoy!

Last week my beloved iMac stopped working for good. It's been more than a decade of a fantastic relationship, but now I have to accept the fact that it won't be with me anymore... With that in mind, I've collected these vintage Mac icons, most (maybe all) made by the great Susan Kare in the best 80's. Curiously, you will see that many of them have remained until today with very few modifications, but others (that dot matrix printer, those faxes, those floppy disks...) have definitely passed into the History. I remember with particular displeasure the d*** Bomb, which appeared unexpectedly when the computer crashed -too frecuently- and you then lost all the work not saved manually. Freaky old times. My favourite character still being Clarus, the dogcow (at the Z, of course). Hope you like them.

PC Font recreations: "Terminal" (Style 2, coding is CHINESE_BIG5)
This font only appears in Notepad, MS Paint and nowhere else, so replicating it might be a good idea.
The most amazing thing about this font is that it changes its style depending on the chosen font size. More styles and "More Latin" coming soon.
A recreation of the first San Francisco from 1984, originally called Ransom, by the incomparable Susan Kare.
I noticed that among the various recreations of the original bitmap fonts for the Macintosh, this iconic design was missing, so I decided to fill the gap.
I used an image rather than the font as a reference, and don’t know the intended point size, the spacing could be off, and the number of characters is unfortunately very limited.

A recreation of the font used on the early CRT terminals from IBM, based on this source by Marcin Wichary.
I find there is a particular charm in the crudeness of some solutions compared to subsequent iterations or other 5x7 pixel fonts (see, for example, the numerals and |C|U|Y|).
I reproduced only the characters shown in the aforelinked image, placing them in what I considered to be the appropriate Unicode place.
I tried to look for some more glyphs (comma anyone?) but failed to find reliable sources.
Recreated character set of the Brother EP-20/22 Electronic Thermal Typewriter (1983).
Square-pixel variation also available.

Here's a recreation of a font that is very near and dear to my heart. I found it was actually quite a fun challenge to match each character as closely as I could, but I did take a few liberties on the punctuation characters especially.

A seemingly unique rendition of the classic arcade font used in an episode of Ben 10. I've recreated it here since I couldn't find an exact match anywhere.
Some characters that didn't appear in the episode (mostly numbers and punctuation) have been invented by myself to fill it out a bit.
