This is the 20000th FontStruction! meek, you must be proud. Your website, up to 20000 fonts! I have been
working on this for months and I believe it to be my most advanced work yet. Yes, my avatar was made with this a. Also, it's clonable.
I originally made this work under adl, but I left the account. So I got to do the very exciting task of having two fontstructor windows open at once and transferring the font from adl to demonics glyph by glyph. Oh, and I forgot to paste djnippa's tool in there first, so now I have hundreds of composites lying around in no order whatsoever. Silly me.
Wow, S v y are ugly. I'll need to fix that. Well, that's that.
Spacing is also a bit off and the font looks horrible in Word, for some unknown reason. I'll work on that issue.
I'm proud of myself because this is my fourth attempt at a large-scale faux bezier font and it might just work.
Lastly, the font's name progressed like this over the 6+ months I've been working on New Humanist:
New Humanist Rounded
New Humanist Bold
+new humanist bold
dm New Humanist
Just a fun fact.
Anyway, serif and non-rounded versions coming soon!
Cheers!

Warning: Work in progress. I'm just putting it up because it finally has a complete lowercase alphabet & so is actually usable in limited cases.
The goal with this project is to create a humanist italic close to a Caslon, but within Fontstruct limitations. The x-height here is actually quite small: 6 blocks tall.
This one seems to stand small point sizes surprisingly well. At larger sizes, it begins to look jagged but that's actually kind of nice. Of course kerning is all over the place. Not to mention the lack of capitals, punctuation, etc. There will be changes. Use with caution.
