    Looks really nice Oguzhan. I just worked on some changes with mine for the serif font I'm working on: http://cl.ly/9Bvi
    Looking forward to seeing the rest of the characters with yours :)

    I wish I was working on a typeface design but this was just a custom lettering for a client. I changed the whole design direction to a different way and those double stories are on the 'maybe one day' shelves for now :)

    I think it would be cool if you considered the left one of yours as an alternate letter of the right one. Long live otf ;)

    I hear you man - I'll definitely keep that in mind. Alternates are a great way to make a font/typeface more versatile, while still maintaining the overall tone. Thanks.

    Is the last typeface you worked on Badona? Because that was a really cool, fashionable typeface. I would love to see you pursue another one :)

    Thanks Joe, I appreciate it. But to be honest I don't really like the Badona typeface anymore. I was a little hasty in publishing it, I think.

    I've too many things going on at the moment but will definitely work on some sketches and old designs of mine. Sometimes I come across 'working as a type designer' title on the net and I say to myself 'this must be the heaven', right :)?

    For example yesterday, one of my clients was confused about ligatures and said: "I am unclear about how in some cases, the 'S' and 'T' , and the 'C' and 'T' are joined at the top of the 'T' letter. Is that the behavior of the type? If so, it's weird."

    Cheers from hell!

    Haha Oguzhan, I saw your comment on facebook about the ligatures, it made me laugh (or cry, I'm not sure). I'm with Joe - would love to see another one of your typefaces sometime. I really enjoy your custom type work ('maybe one day' shelves or not!) - these 'g's are terrific!

    Claire, thank you very much for your support and nice words. Actually I and my 7586 friends would love to see one of yours first. Don't keep us waiting too long.

    Haha, cheers - I will try not to disappoint all 7587 of you! Thanks a lot for the encouragement. Like you, I have too many things going on as well, but some sketches/beginnings as well.
    All the best with your ligature-less project!
