This font is not a font, but rather a place where I can do experiments like large curves, things that only look cool in outline mode, and much more.
This is published and cloneable so you can see (and use) the experiments for yourself.
Capital A: Various sizes of circles approximated using a standard faux (pronounced like 'foe') bezier curve technique (top) and stock bricks (bottom)
Capital B: A thing that only looks cool in outline mode
Capital C: Approximations of diagonal lines.
Bottom (1): Simple Stock Brick method, using only two stock bricks.
2: Complex Stock Brick method, using three.
3: Composite method.
4: Complex composite method (4x4 composites)
Capital D: (Set filters to 2x2) I wish this was a stock brick / createable brick that didn't require layers or filters.
Ideas:
- Allow layers for non-patrons (maybe not colors, but at least layers)
- When stacking, don't revert the bricks to their original states
- Brick patching (T)
Capital E: Weird thorn brick pinwheel thing. I suppose the last one there is infinitely extendable, as seen in Capital F.
Capital F: Extension of the weird thorn brick pinwheel thing.
Capital G: Capital E but with fin bricks. The last one is also extendable (not shown)
Capital H: Two circles.
On the left is the largest one in the Capital A.
On the right is a slight variation that follows the rules of the circles: Any size circle should be able to exactly fit the one that's two sizes down. This one also looks marginally more consistent as far as stroke weights go.
Capital I: The snick bricks contain themselves.
Capital J: Sierpinski Triangle
Capital K: Capital E and G but with Snick Bricks
Capital L: Capital E, G, and K but with Half-width triangles
Capital M: If anyone wants to make this a font, be my guest.
Capital N: Original concept for Tloak (left), and the updated version (right)
Capital O: Collisions of the New Rings 1, 2, and 4, all offset by just a little, forming New Rings 3, 5, 6, and 7. Just like Binary. (i.e., if you combine 1 and 4 you get 5, or 1 and 2 make 3. Mixing all makes 7, the thickest one.)
Capital P: The capital C with composites expanded
Capital Q: Various approximations for curves at the tops of 1x2 slopes. You are very welcome.
Capital R: Zoom out and press 'O' while in expert mode
Capital S: Rounding the end of a diagonal
Capital T: Various brick patches using William Leverette's Brick Patching technique, found here.

Thank you, STF!
@SuIsJustBack4523721387: Weird flex but ok
(BTW, I can't comment or clone fonts)
An experimental 3-D/geometric font, inspired by Mynameiscapo's "Metal Hammer [beta]". My first attempt was "InTrude"; I tried to make it look like it's coming right out of the screen or off of the page, but it wasn't what I was looking for. After retooling it, here is the result: it works! See all fonts: "Backtrude", "OneQuarterTrude", "OneQuarterTrude Inverse", "MidTrude", "ThreeQuarterTrude", "ThreeQuarterTrude Inverse", "ExTrude", "InTrude", and "FrontTrude"
My attempt to do something different with Structurosa.
With such a small grid and such a distinctive look, it was hard to alter the concept without turning it into something else. The fact that I didn't bother looking at any references save for the FS logo itself probably didn't help. Out of all my experiments, I thought this one looked the best and most original, so here it is.
Display font. Built on the basis of a module: a pair of leaves. If you count the number of leaves in a letter, you get a lot, and if you count the number of leaves in words, you get a whole forest. Therefore, the font is called "Forest".

52 characters for the basic Latin set, 10 numerals, 36 punctuation characters, 66 characters for the Russian language set

Please let me know what do you think :)
fs Stainless
==================================================================
My first font using the Connect Bricks
This is just a test font to experiment with new bricks, nothing more
Sorry if some of the letters and numbers look alike, K and H look the same, A and R look the same, and 1 and 7 can be mixed up
fs Stainless Square
==================================================================
Basically just fs Stainless but more geometric and sharp
I use composited bricks to closely fit with the connects since there are no sharp wedges for the connects
Letters within letters! Type an uppercase letter followed by a lowercase letter to nest them. Type a period for an inner square, and > for an outer square.
This was an experiment from several years ago that I found half-finished while looking for potential CounterComp entries. I added missing letters and quite dramatically improved the existing ones. It's not perfect, and some combinations don't work so well (I'm particularly unhappy with capital I), but I think it turned out pretty well nonetheless.
Beware: for some reason, the downloaded font is huge-about 6 times the height of most other fonts-which makes it look horrible in e.g. MS Word, due to the pixel optimization at "small" sizes. I'm not sure what causes this, and consequentially, I don't know how to fix it.
Experimental brush/pen thing. Has a slightly spooky look. Because of their tapering curves, many glyphs can render with a "split" or "stencil" look about them. This is due to software-imposed limitations on vector rendering. Designs which share this property can be considered Pseudostencils.
This design is not informed or inspired by any existing typographical traditions. I set out to make the "claw" bricks (as I call them) into a font and this is the result.
