A 7 px high font (+2 for descenders, +3 for ascenders) inspired by classic typewriter fonts with extended character range. Best use at multiples of 12pt Recent addition: • Most Cyrillic capitals and lower case characters Currently work still in progress. Use at 12pt (Windows)
@Dear and appreciated minimum: It has been an honour for me to have received from you the possibility of rebuilding my own version of your excellent font "tm Patchpanel", as a result of your very generous offer in FS of the pieces that it was made. I feel enormously lucky and grateful for that. It was also really very interesting for me to be able to go (in a certain way) into the depths of the ins and outs to build glyphs of a great master. With all this, I have dared to propose my humble version of this great font, which is this one that I am now making public. With all this, I have tried to make the grid more obvious, showing the shape of the letters inside. I've also tried not to repeat any of the glyphs of the original font, and I confess also my inability to get a good enough H. The final result appears to lack the freshness of your original font, but offers (to my mind, I hope also to you) some other qualities. I wish I hadn't demeaned the original too much and not made it too ugly. Thanks a million.
This is a cloneA Revision of @Umbreon126's "fs old-ish"
This is a clone of fs old-ishThe ultra-low resolution of this grid may be difficult to grasp without cloning. Fontstruct’s logo has a nominal x-height of 3 bricks, by comparison.
The level of detail, control, and finesse possible in a given fonstruction depended mostly on resolution prior to the recent advent of stackable composites. Did you want it better? Make it bigger!
Brute force, now meet Elegance.
Instead of building individual glyphs hundreds of bricks tall, stackable composites allow us to design rich modular schemata hundreds of bricks deep. Using curved bricks at their largest scale, linear and curvilinear elements dynamically harmonize and oppose. As well, screen fonts can be effectively hinted (aside from notable lack of kerning controls) without sacrificing the integrity of joins and intersections. And the trapping possibilities, Oh the sweet sweet trapping possibilities...
Please, vote kindly and stay tuned for more :)
