An outline version of Blueback, with slightly different proportions, x-height: 2⅛ bricks.

I love the traditional French biscuits made on the French west coast where  Loire meets Atlantic.

The biscuits are thin, crunchy, light, not too large, not very sweet, melt on the tongue, and biscuits very like the original can be made/baked quite easily.

The traditional version has a limited range of letters, enough to write the name of town, manufacturer and product. I've been unsuccessful in finding an image of the font which contributed just a few letters to decorate these biscuits.

I spent some time looking at other type of the Victorian/Art Nouveau era until I had collected enough information to help me design the missing letters. I added the French diacritics, naturally. I think my additions look successful and the whole font looks quite Art Neauveau and in the style used originally.

The square brackets [ and ] make a biscuit shape when used 'blank'.

Bon appetit, enjoy your "Biscuit de l'Ouest".

Inspired by a technique used by 12Me21 in 3D Shading.

A font formed out of Truchet Tiles.

Truchet tiles are formed by taking a single tile composed of opposing quarter circles, then applying its inverse in a random fashion. Here, I've inverted the tiles to create outlines, then developed the negative aspects of the letters, thus creating a reversal of a reversal of a reversal! Boom! Now you're in the third dream level of Inception.
