bianzhidai is a font inspired by ASCII art shading character and 编织袋 (woven plastic bags). Initially constructed in GDC (glyphdrawingclub, an online drawing tool made by @heikkiveikko and Ian Tuomi), BianZhiDai thrives in color, especially when you experiment with different fill/stroke combinations. Its modular nature, developed in Glyphs, allows for endless customization. Try it, play with it, and make it yours.
