   I said that I would post something creative at least once a week. That was more than two weeks ago or so. Well, in fact I was busy with my newest tutorial for AEtuts+ introducing Nuke to After Effects users, so you might want to check it out for. But those big projects aside there are always some small projects which are as interesting as versatile. This time: Another font.

   While I was spending the night cleaning up and UV layouting a scene in Maya I felt a the urge to check my mail. So I logged on Yahoo! to check whether I got some more r*0*l*e*x and v14gr4 spam mails to get rid off, usually no more than 2 or 4. but today it was different. When you have suddenly 68 new emails from one day to another in your inbox then either something great or something terrible has happened to you.

   Fonts usually never grow old, they just become classics. But an incomplete font only gets forgotten. And as a hobby font-creator myself I produced an incomplete font, Zipher and wasn’t even aware of the incompleteness. Luckily I got an email from Richard Smith who sent me his request, to add the missing P with filled counter, along with a Patron-sized donation which made him instantly the person who donated the most money for the Promenade Blog. Oh, about the font: You can download the new and improved version from the Zipher page.

   This is the last of the three fonts of the Zodiac Killer font series. I now shall be free. From this day on I shall go my ways peacefully again. I don't now what's all about this Zodiac thing but although Arthur Leigh Allen is long dead now it is still fascinating how everything floating ...

   Another day, another font. This time it’s another style written by the Cipher Killer Zodiac, when he was a little more same and rational when writing letters. That’s why it’s called Zanity. And I started out with OpenType and custom ligatures for all of you font buffs out there.

   I was busy reading “Zodiac” by Robert Graysmith the last week and I am about finishing the book. It’s a very good read and I recommend it, especially when you’re into details in the investigations or details in general. And while looking through Zodiac’s letter and ciphers I felt somehow the urge to make a TrueType font of Zodiac’s handwriting. So here it is.
   EDIT: Renamed the Font from Zodiac Cipher ’69 to Zipher. Sounds slicker and orders alphabetically nicely with all the other Zodiac Killer Fonts I’ve created so far (or will in the future).
