Looking for a specific font

Unfortunately, I don't know if one exists.

I'm trying to find a font with block letters, that look like weathered stone or wrought iron. They need to have the right blend of curves and angles (much like the camaro)

I think the metallica font meets "Demon Night" font meets "Zombie Holocaust" font.

This is going to be used in a cosmetic mod for my car "ZLZBUBB," hence the demonic type fonts. I don't need blood or dripping, or barbs or anything, but I'm looking for a font that captures the strong, yet powerful aura that I like to think my car has.

I know it sounds corny/cheesy to some, but I like it. I just need to bring my vision to life.

Any suggestions?

That's not too bad. Can you put the word ZLZBUBB in and let me see?

that sucks. Here are a few that I have found so far. only one I like is the first one, but it still seems a bit skinny. Kingdom Hearts isn't too bad, but same issue.

1. Zombie Holocaust
2. DespaiR
3. Demon Night
4. Vertigo Death
5. Kingdom Hearts

Have you looked at Dafont? They have a lot of fonts on that website and most are free.

PMC, that last one looks like Predator font for their symbols (AVP movie etching on the helmet) Not bad, but not what I'm looking for with this project.

Menendez, I have been looking. I just haven't found any. They go in alphabetical order and have thousands of fonts so it just takes a while. I figured I may be able to crowdsource ideas since many pairs of eyes make the search quicker. =)

That second one is girly looking. And the 4th one looks like 2's not Z's

For me I like the 1st and 5th.

I will do a little looking later on and see what I can find for you.

the first one is the font used for the movie "Dark Crystal" and the second one is from "Blade 2".
