@ queencat, elmoyenique, cablecomputer: thanks!
@frodo7: thanks, I settled for this after deciding against Grumpy Wizards, New Farmhand and Toxic Brew...
Congratulations! FontStruct Staff have deemed your FontStruction worthy of special mention. “Crazy Fredericka” is now a current Featured FontStruction.
Paul, you absolutely rocked this one. A highly successful ultra-fat stencil face. I don’t care how fat she is, Crazy Fredricka’s got legs. She knows how to move. She can shake it, she can dance!
Being successful in Fontstruct's 2012 Stencil Competition and getting so much positive feedback gave me the courage to submit Crazy Fredericka and four of my other fontstructions to Typodarium, a tear-off calendar that reveals a new font every day, with the font prominently displayed on the front and a short description on the back. Now in its sixth year, it includes 365 fonts by 232 designers and foundries from 26 countries.
I was delighted when I was told by email a few months ago that all five fontstructions were going to be included in Typodarium 2014, but I couldn't fully believe it until I received my copies in the post today. If it wasn't for meek's fontstruct and its community, I wouldn't even have dreamed of this! The featured fonts are: Crazy Fredericka (Tuesday 29 April), Granny's Bear Hunt (Saturday 9 August), Broken Promises (Thursday 4 September), Featherstone (Wednesday 8 October) and Rock Paper Scissors (Wednesday 3 December). I will be posting some images as soon as possible.
Congratulations! Fontstruct and its community truly are awesome. I hope the calendar will be available here in Shanghai. Now the next news I'm waiting is you selling your fonts :)
Thanks everyone, once again your support here is impressive and much appreciated!
The possibility of some kind of small scale fontstruct publication is certainly something that could be discussed in more detail. I think it has potential.
I am currently exploring ways to generate some income through offering some of my fonts for sale and I'll keep you all posted on any developments.

Also, for those who are interested: Typodarium have put out a call for entries for 2015. And has anybody tried out the new fontark.net?
This makes me feel like a total noob ;-;
I turned it 3D! :)
A simply brilliant sample!
Crazy Fredericka has got some girth. Superb demo.
@Future MFX (Future FG Gaming): thanks for the excellent sample!
