Emil has a sympatic character, even if he has his little edges and corners. Nevertheless, Emil is not too eccentric. It' s possible to work with him and maybe Emil will go one step further towards italics...?
THIS FONT IS A COPY OF "FORMAL ROMAN"
I want to try to expand this font so it can have more characters and supports more varieties of languages
Expansions :
- Latin Extended-A
- Cyrillic
- Greek
- Added more letters and symbols in More Latin
If there are any mistakes, please inform me, and I will fix it asap
This is a clonePixel-rounded version of zhowfrakt. Another point of view, more "organic".
This is a clone of zhowfrakt eYe/FSRecreation of the fantastic font Startime, from the compilation "Circus Alphabets" (1989) by the great Dan X. Solo. I've modified some glyphs (C, G, J, K, V, W, X, &, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, ?, !, *, (, ), $, €, £, ¥, etc...) and added a lot of them, including accents and other diacritics. Some alternates were also included in the lowercase area. A personal hommage to a font from my youth, which I felt encouraged to finish after admiring the magistral and excellent work of Frodo7 Abruzzo DS.

This is a clone of zpheres eYe/FSSmall caps version for zendera eYe/FS, making the set grow, but this also works as a font by itself. Some kerning works are still in progress, I'm sorry.
This is a clone of zendera eYe/FSA non standard stencil/piano-like font, using an experimental "guides + nudging" kerning process and a lot of smooth curvy shapes. Some soft alternates (for A, W, w, X, x, Y and y) are in the ligatures area at the More Latin section.
This is a cloneIncluding cyrillic (to native cyrillic users about my glyphs: help & comments are welcomed, please). Some kerning is in process. See also zendera smallcaps eYe/FS.

This is a clone of fs SharkSTF_BODIDONE - Classic Didone style display serif.
Ahh sadly due to repeatedly running into a corrupted font when I save newly made changes to it, it eventually catched up with me and tested the limit of my patience.
I have had to painstakingly restore the font 5 times already since I started it.
So I stopped including new characters as well as making new changes to its existing character set. (At least for now)
Too bad because I wouldve loved to see this truly getting finalized.
So at this stage there are still a number of characters that remain in rough condition, and had yet to be further optimized.
The main A-Z alphabet luckily already was close to how I invisioned it, but especially the numerals, symbols and accents still have some rough edges.
Now, forgetting all that, I still think it is not a bad font at all. Everything is there for most common Western-European languages, somewhat still making this a usable font that I shouldn't be keeping in private!
I hope that despite my bad luck this time, y'all still like it.
================================================
About this Font:
The idea was to make a classic Didone style display serif that is meant for making clean headline text similar to those often seen in older magazines or newspapers. I set out trying to design a semi-bold & slight expanded looking letterform with thin hairline serifs and strokes. I choose a large grid scale for the extra freedom in custom shaping this provides.
================================================
Technique I used in this design:
This font in particular I have experimented with working within a "(asymmetrical-) Grid Scale ratio" ( 1,5:1 ), so, changing only the value for the Horizontal grid scale. (This distorts the grid aspect ratio, and is a great way to discover and experiment with getting new forms and shapes).
The 1,5 : 1 ratio was specifically choosen to keep maths simple, in order to rebuild certain required bricks that build specific slope angles , such as a 45° (which is no longer possible to make from the FS default brick set when using asymmetric scale ratios, unless making composites).
But what this also does is opening up a totally new approach to making shapes, and..becoming quite a surprisingly easy shortcut to get unusual shapes or make variations on these, even with as little as just the rotation of the bricks/selection. (thanks to the distorted aspect ratio) :-).
This is a must try for those who are into large grid designs, fake curves or interrested in experimenting around a little.
Enjoy!
Three in a row: after one lycanthropic font, another to the zombies... the third is for the scifi... and FS!.
After zilverbullet (my last font for lycanthropes) here you are another special, this time is for... zombies! NB: Contains some alternatives to the UC (in the LC) and cyrillic set.
An old font revisited and revitalised: now it's weird but fun. No diacritics, almost no punctuation nor symbols. Simply because I think this is not exactly useful ;)
This is a clone of Romaeo Stand
