Hi All Not sure where to post this question, But is there a font i can download to produce the Crossfire lettering, so i can get that line each side of the letter correct with out drawing them in.


Cheers,

Andy

 

idk but if you find it let us know!

 

YES there is !

 

^^^ is that supposed to be it? i've seen the lettering on the back of our cars and it doesn't look like that.

 

i have no idea what this thread is about?

 

Anyone have it?
I'd appreciate it as I've resorted to making my own garage posters using my own pics and some from the Tail of the Dragon... and if anyone knows/has a large Chrysler logo that’d be great too!

 

In order to make the letters for the sun visors on the bears I used an alphabet template that had the squat fat letter style then drew in the lines. Another suggestion is to take paper/pencil and make a rubbing of the letters on the kick/foot plate at the door sill. You can then modify them to creat the letters you need. I think there is a font that is in general a good match, can't remember the name, but you'd still have to put the lines in by hand.

 

I've got a bookmark on my computer at home to a website with free hi res .eps images of various logos, including the Crossfire lettering. It isn't a font per se, but rather a vector graphic of the lettering found on the back of the car. This should suit your purpose for sign or banner making as vector graphics can be scaled infinitely without becoming pixelated.

I'll post a link later tonight when I get home. After I walk the dog. And have dinner.

Hey, I've got priorities ya know!!!!

 

This one is close to it. Look for the one named KINEX. http://cooltext.com/Fonts-Iconian+Fonts

 

OK, out of the goodness of my heart I'm posting this before walking the dog and eating dinner.

Go to http://www.brandsoftheworld.com/ and just type in crossfire. It's a stupid multi step process but you end up with a nice, clean .eps vector graphic of the CROSSFIRE logo and if you have Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop you can resize at will with no loss of quality, alter color, etc.

 

THANK YOU!

 

Anyone know somebody that works in Chrysler's marketing department?? That's probably the only way you're going to get the actual fonts.

But the downloaded graphic sure helps! Thanks!

 

I'm going to work on an actual font package in the crossfire font. It sucks that it is so tedious to make them though. Hope to have them done tonight or tomorrow.

 

It's quite possible that there is no actual font for this - just the graphic for the nameplate. You don't need a font to create something like that. Besides, has anyone seen any other copy from Chrysler, or anyone else for that matter, that made use of this character set? All I've ever seen is the Crossfire logo.

 

They're done! Well the uppercase alphabet at least. I'll work on the numbers tomorrow. I probably won't do lower case as I don't think they'd get used for one and I think they will look terrible if I did spend the time to make them.

Enjoy!

 

Hi All, now thats a result. Only one question how is the best way to use the fonts, I have saved as a picture, is there a program that we can use that uses these fonts ?? Great work Rcompart coming up with the letters/font.


Cheers

Andy

 

I plan on importing them into a font building program but I first need to make sure I have all the characters done and I want to get numbers in there for sure. Are there any special characters you think we would need besides the "-" hyphen and the "|" bar?

 

Great job...

 

Hi Rcompart, Hey your doing a great great job ! & ? will do for me, But no problems if its a no go.

Cheers

Andy

 

Try a font called SOFACHROME that will be very close to the SRT font.
