New Font: BigBlok
A great many years ago when working in game publishing I had a real fascination with doing titles in a strong, super-bold font called Bolt Bold. The truth is I rather overused it. In doing some research I find it on more than a dozen different game books I wrote in the early 80s, all quite collectable and out of print today.
Classic Font: Lachesis
| Lachesis was one of our earliest text font designs, a unique font deliberately designed to have an antique wood-cut look. It is based on samples of vintage type taken directly from letterpress type blocks found at the type museum in Barnard Maine, a great resource which closed a few years ago. Over the years Lachesis has gone through a lot of revisions and improvements and became one of our first Master Fonts with an expanded character set, foreign language characters and custom bold and italic versions.
This latest release of Lachesis has had a bit of fine tuning, but does not include many major changes. It’s just an excellent font if you want something which is fairly heavy and has an antique wood-cut look to it. You can try the DEMO version of Lachesis for free. The demo has a limited character set. Or you can ORDER the full version for only $29 (including regular, bold and italic), and download it right away. |
