At the end of October I decided to dive into the new Bricks 'Connect'. I started with the lowercase 's' & 'a'. Working out what the minimal size I could fontstruct it in, then expanded and condensed it from there to accomadate the rest of the glyths. You can still see these in the font above (Just before the Latin characters. As I progressed I came to love the thin white gaps, and then tried to have every glyth with some element of the curved white gap in it. Some were more successful than others. As you can see, I have included the less preferred options at the end. I've also designed some of the final glyphs in illustrator, as it was impossible to have all of them with one white line, without help from an external app.
The most difficult glyphs to create and ultimately the most satisfying once completed were the 'V' and '~'.
I liked the look of final font so much, that I decided to create a whole family. Cableguynium 0 (which has Zero cables), CableGuynium 2 (which has 1-2 cables per glyth), and CableGuynium 3 (Which has 3-4 cables).
Unusually I struggled naming this font, I have early versions saved called Flowonica, Rubber Tyre, Ice Skater and Fibropticon, ..... eventually settling on CableGuynium as it was the most memorable.
ANY CRITICISM, GOOD OR BAD IS WELCOMED.
Black and rounded display font. Made with 2:2 filters, x height = 2 bricks (yes, truly), UC height = 2,5 bricks, and descenders = 0,5 brick. Plus: "ff" and "tt" ligatures placed at the "fi" and "fl" glyphs, and a lot of kern done but more in progress. Enjoy, please.
PS: Thanks to @Sed4tives for his continuous, selfless and very helpful help on improving this font. I'm in debt, compa!
When I saw the New Year's greeting from the great geneus1 I started to think about how a font would look with the height of the capital letters equal to the lowercase x. This is the result. I hope you like it as much as I do.
This is a cloneThis is zimmera without scratches, more usable for general purposes. Thanks to @frongile for encouraging me to add it here. Hope you like it.
This is a clone of zimmera eYe/FSMade with the well-known Grafilone typeface (by Bo Berndal) in mind, but more elongated and avoiding its curious roughness. In addition to the basic set of glyphs, some special ones have been added and the Cyrillic alphabet has also been included. The ligatures "ff" and "tt" are located on the characters "ff", "fi" and "fl". Enjoy it, please.

Unicase with alternates. I've used Astronef Super (by excellent typographer JF Porchez) and others like Neil Bold (by the inspirer Wayne Stettler) as a starting reference, but I've redesigned the general aspect of all the glyphs and added a lot of new details, which makes this font quite different and special. I like to review and get a personal second look at some already released fonts, and I like to do this in FS. Thanks again for support me and understand that.
ALIEN WORMHOLE (BOLD) - Monolinear Sci-Fi-inspired 'worm' typeface.
═════════════════════════════════════
This is a 'Bold' style version to the "ALIEN WORMHOLE" type family.
This version has a ton of extra character compared to the 'Light' version.
For now only the two 'Basic Latin' sets, some symbols and a small number of puctuation marks match. And it remains to be seen if I can translate back to the Light version all those extra's that were put into this Bold version.
I mentioned 'type family' earlier, but in reality there isn't a whole lot of family just yet. Since the two for now hardly correlate truly.

Here is a link to the 'Light' version

Stay tuned for future updates.

Font directly inspired by Cookielord's "Gargantua". That's why I thought of calling it "Pantagruel" (remembering the name of the other gluttonous giant, son of Gargantua, immortalized by the writer F. Rabelais), but it didn't start with z -hehehe :) - and I chose "zampatoo" (wich could mean something like "eat-it-all"). The final result has lost the rotund, forceful and fresh aspect of the original, but has retained some of its overall heaviness and massiveness. During the process it has also gained some curves. Risky font. Good for headlines, bad for body text. Extra "tt" ligature at the "fl" glyph. Hope you like it. Yummy, yummy... :D
