Beautiful :)
10/10
x,z look same though. You could hor-flip s.

@architaraz Thanks! Flipping s may not work though.

Great font. Congratulations.

I like how you take your time and develops a real signature, even in the slab genre which is really not my cup of tea, this sharp irregular stone agy but paradoxically elegant and refined feeling which has become your hallmark makes me like it very much. Congratulations for your evolution. Take the time and the tempo you need, even if not completing most of your works first, at one point, YOU WILL KNOW what it is worth and what is not, it will be still time to come back to them. For almost one year, i only made 26 glyphs fonts and i made many. To build and consolidate my complex signature took much time and experiments. Some go more slow than others, the essential is to not give up.

If haven't been here for several days, because of the school busy-ness (I'm still at school) and this is a veeery nice comeback font :) Love that "s"!

You guys make me smile :)

Architaraz, you like the s? I must've been at that one character for 20 minutes and I still hate it. Thank you though. (Does anyone have suggestions for s?)

Comment by demonics 2nd may 2012

If you want a really wonky solution...just remove the spine and have two rotationally symmetric halves :3 It helps to improve legibility at small sizes...

Comment by 3moDuDe 2nd may 2012

Keep the hairline spine in the s! It's what I love most about this font.

The rest is very good too.

Comment by aphoria 2nd may 2012

I love the s! I love it so much that I even wanted z to look like s :)

Comment by kassymkulov 2nd may 2012

Some suggestions for s:

The controversy is creativity! Stay FontStructing!

Comment by elmoyenique 2nd may 2012

A simple flyer I am designing for a middle school. I think Rockwell makes a good companion to dm Blockd.

Sorry, the fine details show up better in print and larger.
