Designer's Notes

This is a font inspired by the game 'Skyrim', if you have ever played Skyrim and read any of the books there you may have noticed that the upper case 'F' looks out of place and has a very large right side bearing. It looks like a graphic designer with no typographical experience was given the job of making an F on a very tight deadline and this is what he/she came up with. It seems to be cobbled together from pieces of other characters in the font cut up and glued together.

Once you see this mistake you cannot unsee it. As a type designer I thought I could have done better. So the question arose, how would I have done it. This font is the answer to that question.

Enjoy!
