I put g on the ocular axis so now they both change from 1- to 2-storey forms.

He/Him/Lambda • Type designer by day • Making fonts by night
Literally my first attempt at variable font design. Naturally i choose something tricky like an axis that has simple /a at one end and 2-storey /a at the other.
(Thanks to @daytonamess for suggesting Dinamo Font Gauntlet)
I added Welsh to (the Glyphs version of) word-o-mat and Georg @ Glyphs merged it.
Croeso!
(for those that don't use Glyphs, word-o-mat is Nina Stössinger's plugin that generates random words for your typographic preview)
I got distracted by the digitally marbled papers of @amandaghassaei and turned some of the motifs of my latest font into repeating wallpaper patterns.
Arch and leg of "n";
counter of "o";
Interlinked (modified) "H".
Got/found/upcycled a new desk (it's a pine table) and so took the opportunity to reorganise the workstation. I love it. But mostly i love it because there are two or three boxes of crufty junk that are lurking in another room waiting to be sorted.
The second draft of these numbers is a lot more reassuring. I was quite stressed at how bad the earlier draft was.
