I've got to get a move on. I've got to complete this series by the end of this week.
So here's Yanus. It was designed in 1997 by Tagir Safayev at ParaType. It was inspired by Neulin Sans of Ray Gun magazine from 1996. The first version of the typeface was created as part of a corporate identity program for the Russian airline Aeroflot.
And here's Ying. Designed in 2006 by Gert Wiescher.
Not bad, are they?

Hi David
Nice, nice, but doesn't the kerning of Ying disturb you a bit? Gorgeous "g" tho.

True, Marc, true. But that's what happens when fonts.com does the setting for you: http://www.fonts.com/findfonts/detail.htm?pid=44348&
