Created: 3rd August, 2008 The Slurpee Font - Created and fueled by an unhealthy summer obsession with the world's greatest beverage you can drink/eat with a straw. A little interweb research gave some hints at a few more glyphs than the initial six glyphs in the 'Slurpee' logo. In some cases, like with the 'c' glyph, I noticed that it had been drawn differently in different usage. See here and here.
Being that the current Slurpee logo is Unicase, I decided to try and make uppercase and lowercase alternatives that can be mixed and matched for the unicase feel.
See also Chank Diesel's wonderful font Cosmic, which draws from the old school Slurpee branding.
P.S. The Monster Black Ice flavor that came out this summer was ridiculously awesome.

I really like the way this one turned out. It uses minimal grid blocks to achieve the desired effect (although at ~2x2 and the slivers and the pinhole dots, there are a surprisingly large number of actual bricks used per glyph than evident at a quick glance, although not a single overlapping brick is used without express purpose). I think this is my favorite of all the ones I've done so far. It is with nervous anticipation that I let it free. Go forth and propagate, young font; it's You v World!

A slightly more legible version of NCD Black Square.
Based on a Black Square of Russian Artist of Kazimir Malevich. Only using the smallest amount of manipulation possible to give a real minimalist effect. Whilst still retaining some form of legibility.
The Black Square of Kazimir Malevich is one of the most famous creations of Russian art in the last century. The first Black Square was painted in 1915 to become the turning point in the development of Russian avant-garde.This is a clone of NCD Black Square
Q: What's with the name? A: At some point over the holidays, the movie Thunderball was on and I got to thinking about jet packs, Aston Martins, archenemies, Blofeld, SPECTRE and whether Miami is really worth 100 Million in diamonds or if it might have been better just to keep the diamonds instead of trying to save Miami. I mean, at the time of the movie, Miami hadn't even discovered cocaine yet and really wasn't on the map. If I were Blofeld, I would have picked an entirely different city to hold a bomb threat over. It was the sixties after all, take out San Francisco. Incidentally, at one point in the movie Bond finds himself in the Bahamas in the middle of a junkanoo, which is a kind of street fair where folks wear insanely colorful costumes (mostly of feathers) and dance around. Junkanoo! Now that would make a great name for a font. Much better than Thunderball. Is it too late to change the name?
Q: Your recent output - including this clodhopper - seems to be stuck on the 1.8 brick size filter, is your filter toggle stuck or something? A: Your Mom's filter toggle is stuck, buddy! And my next font will be called Clodhopper, and it will be yet another font built at 1.8 and it's going to be big and thick so you'll really feel it when I beat on your skull with it.
Q: Whoa! Touchy. Ok, how about that uppercase 'T', it's awfully funny looking, you gonna change it? A: Oh Boy. You just don't know when to quit, do you? The 'T' began as a spacing compromise but over the last few days it has grown on me - overtaken me really - like some saccharine soaked pop song that I hate but secretly love. So back off on the 'T', it's not going anywhere.
Q: Any last thoughts? A: Blofeld, Junkanoo, Clodhopper - all rad names for fonts that have yet to be born. Q.E.D.

Clone of NCD Brick Stacker (One Grid).
I'm sure this must have been done before. This is basically better looking and therefore more usable version of One Grid. Although not so much Brick Stacking needed for this font. Please see NCD Brick Stacker (One Grid) for Brick Stacking technique.This is a clone of NCD Brick Stacker (One Grid)

These letters, strong as they are, collapse under the weight of their diacritics.

[update April, 2013:: The basic latin set has morphed into a new gothic sans design thanks to a host of solutions enabled by the new propeller bricks.]

Let me introduce Hugo The Huge's little brother, Fritz The Fat. Some digit are copies of letters (2, 5, 6, 9), so you may need to use colours, patterns or any other trick to make them look different.

Ultra heavy slab serif uppercase only face, subtly celebrating the 4x1 diagonals of fontstruct 2.0...
I hope some people will find more stylish uses for this than on college shirts/jumpers. It actually wasn't intended to have that standard college slab serif look, and I desperately believe that there's still a nuance of difference, but that might be an illusion.
I btw just copied the uppercase letters on lowercase slots to make it more convenient. So don't be too impressed by the character count.;)

it's part of my typeface project < unrecognizable font>.
a minimalist(maybe??) font. trying to express all caps characters with 9 bricks and there gaps.
my friend says it looks like a maze.
might be some problem with leading(didn't found the option)
ONLY CAPS(cause i haven't figure out how to express lowercase with the limited resources)

I'm a big fan of big fat font.
This is a modest essay.
I try to find a way for skinnier glyph like T or Y to does'nt look to thin compare to rest of font.
Unhappy with the G,H,7
crit and suggestion are welcome
Was'nt sure as well if I should do a monocase font, I tend to prefer when "Space" is not to large.

Not quite finished - I'm not happy with the X and a few other glyphs most likely need tweaking.
Suggestions welcome, as always.

I think this font is a bit fresher than the first original one, preserving the style of the 70s. It is very smiling, or at least it seems to me when I see it.This is a clone of ztarsky eYe/FS
