Can anyone help me locate the superultra heavy face that showed up in the forums within the last year. It might have been reminiscent of Black Slabbath, but I can't remember if it had slabs or not.
Maybe it was done by a student or novice, not sure.
It seemed to have something clever happening with negative space, if I remember correctly.
I thought it was in the critique forum, but I can't seem to find it there or anywhere else. :/
thanks

Thanks a bunch Florian ... but that's not it.
It hasn't had a retail release, I don't believe.

I'm also looking for a thread from these forums without much luck so far, and we might be looking for the same thing.
If I remember correctly, there were two weights representing the extremes of ultra-heavy and ultra-light. The stem width of the ultra-light weight was equal to the counter width of the ultra-black. Furthermore, most of the glyphs had the same width in both weights.
Does anyone else remember this?

Klimax?

Yes, that's it! Klimax is the face I was thinking of. Thank you, Craig!
I wonder if this answers Beejay's question as well.
