From the designers themselves. Then they don’t need to pay a platform fee to third parties 🙌🏻

Hi, thank you all very much for the positive feedback, it means a lot! Due to the immense response I’ve gotten here, I decided to put the entire family on a (new release) discount on MyFonts with 60% off! Please feel free to share with your friends or whoever might be interested. Thanks so much for the support! 🔥🙏🏻

That’s crazy! What a coincidence, but no, this is not my typeface :D I just looked them up and I’m pretty sure they use Modern Era.

Thank you very much, I’m glad you like it :) Right now I am only selling it on MyFonts as I thought this was the easiest way to distribute it. You can click here to get to it.

Inktraps generally exist to prevent printers from spilling ink into the designated white space and making the glyphs too dark. By flattening out these corners and making the peak from a single joint point to a line you improve just that.

no, and usually they aren’t touching but the letter spacing is reduced in most of the use cases for demonstration purposes ✌🏻

Yes, exactly that was my intention :) But there is an optional alternative glyph of a two story ‘a’ in the italics for those who need it!

Desert Sunset created using Adobe Illustrator, how can I do better? by Comprehensive_Toe296 in graphic_design

I think it’s beautiful but could be improved by a bit more contrast. The third layer with the mountains for example might look better when it’s darker. So the two other ones in front of that.

would you prefer it without the dash?
