That's completely awesome Wallace. How much time do you think you have involved in this entire project?

Thanks Warrior. Over the past week, I'd say some 60+ hours was involved in making of all the letters. That's not counting the time spent making the brushes, so tack on another 30+ hours for that.

Wow man, that's crazy. Appreciate all your hard work.

Wonderful font, thanks for your work Wallace

Here's something!

Thanks everyone for all the kind words.

BTW... the lowercase 'c' is/was backwards. I did that to the 'r' as well. :hehe

The '7' is going to remain as-is. BTW... I'm nearly finished doing the lowercase letters and hope to be able to post them some time tomorrow.
I also hope that 'Rod's' offer to assist me in making these letters a font, is still standing.

Are you still on board Rod? :yes

You bet.

I love how you did the lower case w and m with handles and gauges.
I think you have a lot of talent for typeface making as well as other stuff. These are very nicely done.

Thanks Rod, I worked hard on this project and I'm happy that you didn't jump ship on me. :hehe

Wallace when will we be able to download your completed ttf and/or photofont files

Note! for grayscale, where you have used white, you could change to transparency

I can't wait to try out the final finish, Wallace!

I still have to create some punctuations for the font. I didn't make any and now that's the only thing left to make. I'm also working with 'Rod', he's helping me out by make the ttf or photofont files. Once I make the basic punctuations, I'll hand it over to Rod to work his magic.
Having a ttf would be really nice, but even a photofont file would be great to have.
I really don't know very mush about the intricacies of creating real ttf's or otf's.

I know what you mean Odin, I feel the same way. (I've got my fingers crossed)

Wallace there are no ttf fonts with white in the color instead they use transparency so I thought I'd roughly change your dial to what I mean

which would look like this against a white bkg when used in ttf font

Thanks Graechan for showing what it would look like. :coolthup

I'm aware of this and already did a mock-up of what it might look like with Gimp.
I think it's a small detail that shouldn't take to much away if it were made into a ttf.

I really didn't plan on doing all this. I only had this idea for the brushes. Then I began playing with them and it evolved into this font. I wasn't thinking about making a font when I was making the brushes.

Awesome! Having this as a TTF would be great.

Nice work on this, Wallace!

I think what MareroQ meant was that he didn't want you to think he pirated your work by using Davids new extract objects script to extract your pipe images.

He wants a downloadable attachment from you so he feels better about using them. :bigthup

Maybe MareroQ doesn't know about the brushes you offered?
