Nice work!
@SimonRobertson: Williaum is spot on with his dissection. I've simply scaled both the x and y from 1 to 2. I find this scaling gives more possibilities for brick overlapping. Like in the percentage glyph below where the curve meets the angle.
WELL! Thank you for creating a font that shows us!
Alfred, Chesterfield and Starstruc were all built using the 2x scale method. I think Jettison (at least 95% of it) could have been built at 1x scaling but when I started it I was already so use to laying brick at 2x that I found it confusing to go back to 1x. Below is an example of the "K" from the FontStruction Alfred. You can see some of the overlapping techniques I used to create the joint angles and in the fillets on the serifs.
it took me barely half an hour to get it!
very inventive!
I thought everyone knew about how brick scaling worked!?! Many of my designs just wouldn't be possible without it. Thanks for posting your visual explanations. I can put up some if anyone is interested.
You're right, brick overlapping at 2x scale increases brick possibilities by a factor of 4. Everything you can do in 1x you can do in 2x, and then some. Not only that, depending on your design, you can cover the same amount of grid real estate that you would in 1x using only a quarter of the bricks.
Combine that with williaum's brick stacking technique, and you have exponential possibilities. Then the fun really begins!
what if you thought u understood something but you didn't?
well, that definitvely happend to me...
:D
