New Work: Megazoid Microsite

Type specimen for Megazoid showing two columns of white text with a lime green isometric depth layer on a yellow background. The left column text is in uppercase reading top to bottom: Metric, Return, Phobia, Dyadic, Silicon, Nebula. The right column reads top to bottom: Angular, Echelon, Optimal, Starship, Diverge, Isotopic.

Megazoid specimen, showing off variable depth and stroke axes.
