Colporteur Font
A Colporteur is a peddler of books, newspapers, and similar literature. When I was young, we often got visits from colporteurs – mostly they wanted to sell us a very expensive encyclopaedia. I haven’t seen them for a while –
Henceforth Font
Henceforth is a hand-drawn, all caps didone-style typeface. It is a little rough, a little uneven, but lively and elegant as well. Personally I think it has a certain poshness about it: I mean, it wouldn’t look out of place
Vlinder Font
Vlinder means butterfly in Dutch. Vlinder font is a cute and curly typeface with fluttering glyphs and an overall happy feel to it. Use it for childrens books, posters and invites. Comes with flowery fields of diacritics. Published by HanodedDownload
Whale Song Font
I grew up with the ‘Save The Whales’ slogan: I remember watching the news and seeing little Greenpeace dinghies taking on huge Japanese whalers, and activists clinging on for dear life. I haven’t heard that slogan for a while: maybe
Flagellum Dei Font
Flagellum Dei is Latin for ‘The Scourge of God’. It is a title given by later generations to Attila the Hun (406-453 C.E.). Flagellum Dei is also a rather scary font, which I made with the use of a stiff

Rabbit Escape Font
Lately I have been thinking about rabbits. Not that I have a particular love for rabbits – they’re cute, but also kind of stupid. But as Christmas dinner is approaching, I see more rabbit carcasses lining the shelves of supermarkets.
Starlight Lovers Font
I have always loved gazing at the stars. Too bad that you don’t get to see a true starry night these days – mostly because of light pollution. Starlight Lovers is a messy serif. It is hand painted, using a
Midnight Chalker Font
Midnight Chalker is, well, a chalk(ish) font and it was (fro the greater part) created around the midnight hour. That’s usually when I get my inspiration. Midnight Chalker is a tall, eroded font – all caps, but the upper and
Tartufo Font
A Tartufo is a truffle in Italian. I have to admit, I have never eaten one, so I couldn’t really tell you if they’re any good. I suppose they are, but you’ll have to find that out for yourselves! Tartufo
