Just updated the 'f'.

Well done! I like it very much.
Rediscovering the great typo design of the 70s is our pending matter!
If you want, you can see here some fonts on this style:

It looks just like my FontStruction "Lampoon", but with true lowercase letters.

Comment by jimhv 8th march 2011

Wow! It does, too... Huh.

Comment by Zarvon 8th march 2011

There are many "Helvetica"s and many more variations about "Helvetica" than we can imagine just near here. There are also many "Times", and many... "many", don't worry. Most often, what distinguishes one font from another is the desire from the designer to improve it, and this I think is evident in this font, especially in the treatment of the lower case. You think, now we are reading this with only 26 letters, we are repeating something?... Creating is the key, IMHO.

Great work! I love every letter! By the way, what does "Kogallisc" mean?

Comment by Logan Thomason (xenophilius) 9th march 2011

I figured it had to be a real font, and I think I've actually seen Dominion before... I'll probably end up deleting this one.

P.S. from what I can gather on that poster, Csillagok means "Star" and Haboruja means "Wars" in Hungarian.

Comment by LexKominek 9th march 2011

Oops! Something Hungarian. Nice and simple. (Little correction: "Csillagok" is plural, = Stars. As often, the movie title here is not a precise translation of the original.) 10/10

... which I added to my favourites list a long time ago. I think it's time to retire this one and bring it back with a new upper-case.

Comment by LexKominek 12th march 2011

Oh! I thought the title was cryptic, in reverse! You know, "Csillagok"-->"Kogallisc"... I thought it was something like that. I was obviously wrong.

Comment by Logan Thomason (xenophilius) 12th march 2011

I've just updated this so it's not the same as Lampoon.

Comment by LexKominek 22nd march 2011

Another update - I didn't like the 'A' or 'D'.

Why you don't like those glyphs? Look at these ugly mine and do not despair to finding your better solution. Greetings.
