Beauty from imperfection...
Using the "nudge" tool, I tried to make a dot matrix font where it looks like the print-head was damaged and the pins were consistently mis-aligned. Using a spreadsheet to help randomize the dot positions from center ( U/D/L/R ), the resulting effect looks merely "OK" on the screen; it's just not as subtle as I had hoped...
But you know what? I printed a couple of pages of text using this TTF font at 12-pt, and it seems to have a more 'natural' and 'authentic' look than dots that are perfectly aligned! So, I consider this one a success, and I hope you do, too. ;^)

Created: 12th April, 2009 A sans serif computer related font inspired by bitmap fonts like Chicago and Charcoal, but it evolved with some of Fontstruct's "Design Limits" in mind:
I left the lower right corner slab of the N to add some rhythm to the "uncrossing" X's slabs (also present in the K), which to my perspective balances the V's impossibility of a straight angle from top to bottom.
I also used a 2x2 grid filter, that I've learned from williaum's a ll e g o r i c a, just to correct some punctuation issues and to make a narrower c. djnippa's Brick Stacker Tutorial also came in handy, THX2uBoth!

UPDATE: I have altered the letters 'U', 'H' and 'X' in order to increase legibility. - 14/11/11
The outcome of my first Graphic Design project at the University of the West of England. This typeface is based on the designated theme of 'Evil'. As the project developed I began to move away from the rather stereotypical 'dark' imagery commonly associated with evil and approached the topic in a different, light-hearted manner. This led me onto the theme of villainy in popular culture, from film to video games. The classic ghosts of the arcade game Pac-Man are designed with such consideration - they are required to communicate both character and threat to the player, whilst still falling within the limitations of the 1980s hardware. As a result, these creatures personify the concept of 'evil stripped down to its essential forms.'

An interesting little font wrote for a fictional character in an online setting of mine. Interestingly enough, I found my name referenced for a 'type design in mexico' thing. Given I'm not in Mexico or anywhere near it, this strikes me as quite interesting.
