One day late but I’m really trying to stick to my font recommendation resolution.
I’ve been on a bit of a distressed font downloading kick lately and Old Press by Galdino Otten is one of my favorite specimens. The lettering is great and the erosion looks really natural. Great choice if you have any grungy designs brewing.

If you downloaded my previous Sewing Patterns font and liked it okay but just wished the fashions were a little bit older, then have I got the font for you.
Sewing Patterns 2 covers the 1910s through the 1940s. Downton Abbey styles? Check. Flappers? Check. Tailored suits for ladies? Check. And hats! So many hats.

I haven’t been doing a very good job of keeping up with my font recommendations. So let’s try this again and see if I can manage to get a post up every Sunday.
To kick things off, here’s Barbarello by Su Lucas. It’s an awesome barbed wire style font with all the symbols and everything.

Usang by cenz qobbal.
I like the effect going on in this font. It almost looks pencil drawn.

I like this font. It reminds me of the food graphics they use at Shake Shack. Plus, it comes with full symbols. I can’t find a website for designer Martín Argüello but you can…

I love seeing how people use my fonts and I love letterpress so I was thrilled when this arrived in the mail.
The book is Fall Apart Park by Gregory Crawford. I haven’t had a chance to read it yet but it’s handcrafted and the cover is gorgeous (and that is what I will judge it by for now).
You can find out more or even buy it here.
I gave myself until Valentine’s Day to finish updating this font (because if you’re going to set arbitrary deadlines, they may as well be seasonal). Obviously, I missed my goal but it’s ready now.
The new version includes upper and lowercase letters, loads of extra symbols if you purchase commercial licensing, and should validate better than before. You can download it here.
I think this might be the first free font I ever downloaded way back in the day. Linear by Divide by Zero.

How did I only just find out about Tack-O-Rama? All that time I could’ve been wasting browsing through vintage clipart.
So, since Tack-O-Rama has a section for steampunk fonts and Fringe was awesome tonight, my font suggestion is Xeppelin by Iconian Fonts.
