Periculum. Rooted in the latin word for 'Dangerous.' This was an experiment in using FontStruct without filters. It reminded me of why I use filters 90% of the time. There aren't as many solutions possible.
Periculum died after a bad copy and paste malfunction. The resurrection process was like walking on eggshells, but here it is. Lowercase was rushed a bit just to get it out there for Aphoria.
The smoothness comes with the combination of preview scaling and anti-aliasing. It has to be scaled at just the right size to look convincing for on-screen purposes. This makes it more ideal for non-print related usage.
060415. Numbers
101815. Symbols added. Preview looks normal on the font's page, but not on the 'Handgloves' listing.This is a clone

This is done under pressure of time.
There will be some more alternate glyphs, but i got to leave the PC now :(
Hope it's a well competitor though...

This one has been called Nova. That is simply due to the fact that the letters A, N, O, and V were the first that I tried out when starting this typeface.

A tribute to Othmar Motter, 1927-2010. A fontstructed lowercase version of his iconic Motter Tektura.

I used a high-resolution grid and lots of FS 2.0 features to create this.
The x-height is 132 grid squares.
I used many of the new angles enabled by FS 2.0 (1:8, 1:6, 1:4, 1:3, 2:3) in an attempt to create very smooth curves.

Special thanks to thalamic for reviewing and giving me suggestions for improvements.
A modernish sans on a fairly small grid. The x-height is 7 grid squares, the cap height is 9 grid squares, and the ascenders & descenders on the lowercase go to 10 grid squares.
All natural curves, mainly using the macaroni bricks.This is a clone

No reference used at all. This is me drawing Paul Renner's original Futura from memory, without intending to. Actually, I was going for something more Avante Garde. It all started with the O and developed from there. The hardest letter = S. It was a real pain in the S. It was interesting afterward to compare the letters to Futura after finishing the caps.
Futura - It was like the Helvetica of 1928.
Bezziaire is an early experimental simulation of Bezier curves with FS2.0. Zooming 30% and below renders best results.
Horizontal optical compensation added for the circular glyphs, as well as baseline overshoots.

Oh yeah, this also has preliminary involvement with shasta's circle competition, which is seriously humbled by his Circle Cult.

Xerro. Because it started with the o, and it looks like zero, even though there's no numerals. Another faux bezier helveticaesque looking sans serif experiment. Lowercase for now.

I tried to design this font as if it was made of folded paper stripes. It looks better in small size on screen. Alternative i for ligatures = I.

052610. Another quick experiment with thin bricks. 1920's Broadway feel.
121114. Revisited the curves and smoothed out everything using subtle nudges.

Amplifica. Derived from the Latin verbal definition of amplify, meaning to enlarge, make greater, or stronger. An older fontstruction revised with new curves and angles to withstand scaling and scrutiny at larger sizes. No polygonal simulated bezier curves needed. So yeah. Go ahead and scale it as large as you want. I dare you. I double dog dare you.

inspired by oldschool video racing games, but also by lapcounters in formula one.
Every dot of this's got a size of 5x5 bricks!!!
the reason for choosing such a superhigh resolution, was the idea to create an italic angle, which is impossible to do with the FSapplet. This is followed by a LOWER case plus numbers, called "pole position l/c".
however...cheers,community and fontlovers!

I was thinking... it could be a nice concept/basic letterform to "pump up" squares!
The upper and lower case sets are different, but not completely. Some of the glyphs only worked in one way...
So here it is. Enjoy and have a beautiful summer!

Triline + Relief = Trelief.
This one was just waiting for a 2.0 update. Originally worked out in March of last year, synchronously with minimum's fs m.ove.r series, and Lex Kominek's Chocobot Stacked series of tri-line fontstructions.
I was unsatisfied with the limited 1.0 curvatures in Trelief, so this was left unreleased. The Trelief series has recently been updated with additional FS2.0 composites for a smoother appearance.
The hard edged version of Trelief came easily afterward.

Only lowercase and minimal punctuation for now...not enough time for a complete set.
The lowercase characters can be layered on the uppercase to get different colored outlines and slashes.
The uppercase contains the characters as the outlines and the internal slashes. The lowercase contains the characters as just the outlines.
The punctuation has the outline only version on the it's key and the slashed version on the SHIFT + key. For example, 2 contains the outline version of @ and SHIFT + 2 contains the slashed version of the @.
