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.

One of my old designs brought up-to-date with FS 2.0
I have changed the name from 'RM Albion Too' to 'RM New Albion' because, whilst I liked the word play of the former, I thought it was a tad trite (and a bit Anglo-centric).

This Fonstruction was created in my first year studying graphic design at UWE. The design brief was to create a typeface using the key word; 'ornate'. I have taken heavy influence from gothic fonts and architecture, looking in particular at religion and religious texts.

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 font was based on the word pompous. It was created for a typography brief set in my first year at UWE Bristol. From the word pompous I was inspired to look at black letter fonts and ornate styles of decoration. Any feedback would be appreciated! If you use this font within your work please post a link with your final outcome, as its always nice to see your creation in action!
Heres a link to my specemin poster

Yep another blackletter. This is my first font. I Love blackletter and its formal/modular structure seemed an obvious choice for fontstruct. I wanted something kinda simple and stripped back with caps that integrated well and didn't bring too much attention to themselves. That capital N brings attention to itself...

A new attempt to develop a clear & simple gothic font. I'm still not happy with some characters (T and Z...aghh)but i'm sure I'll figure out something to get this right. Any help is appreciated!!

|||||Português|||||Tipografia que simula escrita gótica, com uma caneta de corte largo. A altura das letras maiúsculas é sete vezes a largura da ponta da caneta. A altura das minúsculas é 5 vezes a largura da ponta da caneta. A inclinação da caneta é de 45 graus em todas as formas, à excepção das linhas verticais com fim ornamental, que têm a espessura da caneta. Esta é uma fonte para grande quantidade de texto, com alguma preocupação pela legibilidade e leiturabilidade, mesmo para quem não está familiarizado com letra gótica. Não é adequada a nomes ou títulos, completamente escritos em caixa alta.
|||||English|||||Script typeface wich simulates gothic script with a fountain pen. The Upper case letters are seven times high the pen nib. The Lower case letters are five times high the pen nib. The tilt of the pen is 45 degrees in all forms, except for vertical lines with decorative porpose, which have the thickness of the pen. This is a typeface for great quantity of text, with some concern for the legibility and readability, even for those unfamiliar with Gothic script. It should not work well with upper case names or titles.

Alternatives more classics to some glyphs: other "e" is at the "<" glyph, and another "r" is placed at the ">" one too. Hope you like it.

This is my first fontstruction, so please be gentle :)
I made this as an exercise based on my own square-tip pen calligraphy, and it turned out to be some kind of "modern" blackletter.
Please send in any comments/sugestions/critics/whatever

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
