Nikona from Andinistas(Internal News)
Available for purchase at Myfonts.
Nikona is a typographic family composed by eight fonts. The leading thread that typifies this family is its “mutant spirit”; a result of my personal and typographic interpretation of the three robotic laws created by Asimov in 1940, and reflected many times in sci-fi movies, comics and Japanese anime.
The structure and details of Blanca, Gris and Negra Nikona suggest solidity and an ideal typographic color that can be perfectly combined with X1, X2 and X3 Nikona. These last three fonts are the perfect “season” due to that tangled personality that identifies them. Nikona Stencil and Dingbats are perfect to be used in printing techniques based on templates. Nikona Dingbats includes 26 illustrations characters. All these fonts work well in big sizes.
Nikona Blanca, Gris, Negra, X1, X2 and X3 include the complete character set with lower and upper case letters, numbers, accents, diacritics, punctuation and monetary symbols. All of the fonts included in this family are available in the Open Type format and they are Mac and PC compatible.

Nice typeface. Did you use a strict grid and what are the meanings behind "Blanca, Gris, Negra" in replacing "Light, Normal, Bold"? Great work.
Thanks for your nice comment. An to answer your question, yes, Blanca, Gris, Negra are replacing Light, Normal, Bold.
holy shit! Nikona is my favourite font from your collection.
I love the Blanca (light) version especially. Nice names for Light, Normal and Bold by the way. Keep up the good work, soon your fonts will be used everywhere :)
