Great great great! There's not a lot of "from el barrio" typefaces well designed like this one. The only characters who bugs me are I, X, and Z, and perhaps the R can be more "agressive" (like the P), but what a font!
Excellent work! Very evocative. It looks like it wasn't that difficult to make. Perhaps you could do alternates as well - and these might be employed in animating the flame effect.
Thanks for the feedback. Although I have some experience in sign painting, and have been doodling with letterforms for many years now, Sotoflame is my first completed digital font.
did you do graffiti? I can see certain characteristics in this font. The D,E,G,P,R & S look 'piece' like ;) I was a graf artist years ago and still love the medium. I think thats where my love for type came from.

Bren - Yes, graff-art is still the cutting edge for me. Do you know any stores that sell the book 'Urban Discipline 2002' ? It contains some of the wildest styles of this artForm.
I will try and find that book. Sounds interesting (I might even get back into it!) ;) I had an idea for a graph font, but I have to work it a little. I'll show you when its almost ready.
