Font in Dominators Intro

Does anyone know who painted this font?

http://pirates.emucamp.com/a/s/shanghaiw/c64/pic9.html

According to some demos it's by Dom, but that's uncertain, they probably thought it's by them cos they ripped it from their intro.

I have this feeling the font was made by somebody (The Human Autofire maybe?) in Bonzai.
Afaik, this font surfaced for the first time in the Advanced Notemaker from Bonzai.

Bull. For starters this isn't that font, but a similar one. Furthermore, the font you are referring to wasn't made by The Human Autofire, but by Houbba of Prestige. That one first surfaced in the Prestige-demo Squalid, if I remember correctly.

Heck, I got to be allowed to show off a little when I for once actually have a clue about something, right? :-)

Hm, until today I though it was Fox who did the Adv. Notemaker charset, but you're right, Twoflower, it's by Houbba, at least the small font is. The big font in Adv. Notemaker is by Fox then probably?!

Still leaves the font from the Dominators intro which was released way before Bonzai existed.

I think there should be a C64 font website.
Or wait... a High Voltage Font Collection.

Both the big and small font in Advanced Bonzai Note Maker V1.4 is made by Houbba - as I mentioned earlier. Oh yes, after some thinking I managed to locate the source of the font in the intro aswell. Fact is, this font wasn't made by a scener, but by a graphician named Kevin Bulmer. Just take a look at Gauntlet II + and you'll understand what I mean...

Case solved? :-)

I thought about it, that it could be a game font.
But as I'm not a gamer, I wouldn't have had a clue what game it would've been.
