I've added another texture, which is my original work and you don't have to worry about a 3rd party texture (which is still fine, but you may not wanna dig for it's licensing status). Enjoy :)
@FabinhoSC thanks :) I think the link makes this font legit PD because it provides a clear statement by the author himself and the PD dedication also has a fallback license in case PD can't be achieved, similarly to CC0. I personally still only use fonts under CC0, because that's the standard, most used PD waiver written by lawyers and recommended by such organizations as the FSF, other waivers have a higher probability of having a "bug". I'll try to message the author of Tuffy if he'd be willing to stick CC0 to it.
+1 for CC0, great description and sources of your art, and for using a libre font.
I only use PD fonts too now -- not many people care about using libre fonts, but I do think it's important -- even if laws now may allow you to use non-free fonts, they may change any time so it's better to take the safe way. I like to see you take this way.
Although Tuffy is libre, it seems to be unclear about what license it really uses, on font pages I found it marked as PD/GPL/OFL. True and safest PD art, even fonts, should come clearly marked as CC0 by the author. There are basically only a handful of such vector fonts I know of:
@Baŝto No, I just created this small mockup and colored it, but it would be a nice little project to color the whole post. You can do it if you want, it's public domain!
@pixel32 It warms my heart to hear your words, I completely agree :)
Very nice, thank you for contributing to the public domain :)
Hats off, this is a beautiful and completely professional work. I admire it. Thank you for enriching the public domain :)

Immediately favorited :) I knew this had to be your work, Cethiel, just from seeing the images.
Nice contribution, thank you :)

- dotcolon fonts: http://dotcolon.net/, I mostly use Aileron
- Mr Henry: https://github.com/nickdaze/mr-henry
Just a few tips. You made a really good first contribution, keep it up :)
These are now in my Xonotic map :)
I've now added 640x480 upscaled versions, enjoy!

I am totally loving this style, thanks for sharing your art.
Did you really mean to dual license this? Because CC-BY is redundant when you also choose CC0 -- just CC0 would be enough in this case.
