I made a font.

This was an assignment for class, but it was fun. Decided to make a font with a sci-fi feel to it. This is what I'd use on the cover of the novel I've been kicking around in my head the last decade or so.

I apologize for the crappy quality of the picture (took it with my phone) and am planning on digitally cleaning it up. I'll add that in here once that gets finished.

Trying to classify this font is difficult, as it's not entirely traditional. It's not the type of thing you'd use for an extended lengthy writing of any kind because it'd be very difficult to read. That said, I'd claim it to be a sans-seriff font. There are lots of bells and whistles and detail throughout each letter/number, but they are not "stroke" details. They are like added bonuses rather than something which looks like it originated in cursive. The letters are asymmetrical, but I attempted to keep lines and extra bits in an orderly fashion to match up with how they'd look on any other given letter (the lines on "b" and "d" for example). If it belongs to any style of font, it'd be modern, due to the contrast between thick and thin parts of the lettering.

As I mentioned, the goal was to make something sci-fi. I wanted to incorporate an alien feel into it, so I made they as crop circle-adjacent as possible while still remaining legible. There's also a uniformity in the lack of uniformity. It just looks spacey, don't you think?

addendum:
Here's the "new" version in which I just used the paint tool in GIMP to go through and help define the letters/numbers a little better.
