Check out this new font design, inspired by the professional bodybuilder turned actor Arnold Schwarzenegger. Do it. Do it now!

Yes, you read that right! Clearly a fan of Arnold Schwarzenegger's strong (ahem) acting abilities, graphic designer Julia Stepanova (opens in new tab) has developed this new typeface, Arnie Slab (opens in new tab), in his honour.

"This typeface is named after Arnie and boasts masculine forms, unsophisticated but ambitious, just like Arnie himself," explains the Moscow-based Stepanova. She also drew inspiration from the wooden letterforms of the 19th century.

Despite being more than a little distracted by Arnie's bulging biceps, we actually really like this strong, bold typeface. Sporting a somewhat retro-style, the design works really well on the case studies provided by Stepanova.
