Just the Lowercase to a "Fraktur" type font. Work-in-progress. I'm hoping to add support for all the extra characters, diacritics, and such.

This font is intended to replicate the appearance of old German printings of the 19th and early 20th centuries.
It has character designations similar to PDF preview files from Literaturmühle publishing. It includes many ligatures that were once common in printing (in German) which are difficult to imitate with computer fonts and have fallen out of use in the digital age.
This font includes ö,ä,ü,Ö,Ä,Ü and ß along with the following characters:
What you type: What you get:
c ch ligature
% ck ligature
^ ss ligature
\ ll ligature
< sch ligature
` (dash)
~ tz ligature
{ ff ligature
# st ligature
@ si ligature
$ c
} ft ligature
µ tt ligature
[ fi ligature
] fl ligature
ª sl ligature
& ⁊ (Tironian et)
s ſ (long "s")
+ s (small "s")
> (horizontal rule)
The Ligafaktur pragram available at http://www.ligafaktur.de/Startseite.html will allow you to type as normal while the program automatically replaces the individual letters with the correct ligatures.This is a clone

The first font I every made. Tried to get creative by combining grid based fonts and the feel of old German Fraktur fonts. I am always open for feedback!

I thought I might use the new bricks to create an update of Black Metal. The result, however, was more like a steampunk thingy but more organic...

This font combines the aestethics of Fraktur and Roman typefaces. It is also (now fully) stencil. But you would need a strong material for the schabelons, as most counters only have one opening. // The name "Düpbøl" is the combination of the German and Danish names of the same town in Southern Jutland ("Düppel" and "Dybbøl" respectively).

A new ambigram font I'm working on. Inspired by an old font from flipscript.com, now only available on Wow Tattoos.

My first Font. Please tell me if it's any good since I haven't done any serious Field-testing yet. There might be some problems with certain letters.

This is an old font of mine. Wow, it's more than a year old. Yeah I thought I'd share it with you. I'll make some extended latin and such now.

Inspired by the pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and the flying buttresses found in Gothic architecture and the calligraphic Gothic Hand, a young and undaunted designer set forth to minimize counter space and emphasize vertical height with only a few bricks. The result was a modular blackletter font with crossbars, serifs and finials embodying a sense of sideways movement. May the design gods have mercy on her soul.This is a clone

A blackletter/frakture font based on drawings from Albrecht Durer's "De Symmetria". The forms are designed to be compact, filling the space available, and so that they don't require kerning or letter-spacing. The display might mimic the lettering found in the Gutenberg bible, which would have employed a similar grid based type style to create a type similar to what might be found in medieval calligraphy.

Frakture was a project for a typography class. The intention was to create a medium blackletter typeface that can be use for display. A lot of work is left to be done.This is a clone

Hunstrüct is my first attempt at designing a contemporary blackletter typeface within Fontstruct. The typeface draws inspiration from the long tradition of German Fraktur styled blackletters. The name Hunstrück is taken from a mountain range in Germany called the Hunsrück. Primarily I was aiming to build a face that would work well as a display type for gig posters and larger headlines but as I reworked the typeface I tried to strike a balance between text and display.
Big thanks goes to djnippa for his hard work in spacing this font properly.

This is my like 4th font that I have finished. But the first one I have made Public. I'm not sure if it is a Fraktur but it looks kinda' like one. But please comment. I also think it has a almost gothic look too. Enjoy!
I would also like to add that it is a mix between my handwriting and angular and like typewriter.

This took me many, many hours of trying, learning, erasing and restarting. Especially the design of the caps was hard; sooo many possibilities! However, i'm proud to present you my first real blackletter font :) I would like to add some more glyphs to the "more latin" set, but the size seems to be close to the download limit. It's downloadable yet, but i had to erase some glyphs...
ps:
there's an alternate "a" on "@",
and some decorative stuff on "#" and "*".
cheers

I put this one together very quickly. Diacritics and punctuation are coming soon.
