Description RIOKA TYPEFACE SKETCHES

This is my first typeface. I'm currently in the first stages of designing it. It's inspired by the DANUBE typeface. I love DANUBE but some of the letters are funky and don't seem to fit so I wanted to make my own, thus RIOKA.

Cool one!
May be this font interests you [link]

The "e" counterform is small, "k" needs to be less thick in center. the rest are fine to me!

nice man, what program are you going to use to make the font into a true type format? I might want to try my own someday

Sweet font. I really like it. If you do release it, will it be free?

Good luck on this. It's really interesting to see things like this come together I thought this was Danube; i'm really looking forward to seeing your version

must add that i don't like the k. the two line coming out are to fat i think... nice job so far

yea, i think the k is weird too. i couldn't find something that really worked. i drew about 3 other versions of it. i'll probably try and rework it. thanks for the feedback!

I agree with them, and the T is a little bit to shoort on the sides, and I is way to short if you compare with J & L.

Are you going to have !?"/()&*-,. and special letters like the german Ü and nordic ÅÄÖ ?

Solaris07 In reply to halfatoast [2007-05-23 20:57:56 +0000 UTC]

alright, ill take that in to consideration. i thought about doing punctuation and numbers. i'll see what i can come up with.

Your Y, I would make it look more like your H but rotated at 180 degrees, with the ending of G.

And your X, I would use your S, and naturally continue the X with it.

The J feels a bit too long at the tip. wxyz seemed to be squished a bit. But, otherwise, I love danube and what you're doin' with it
