.halfed, .halfed1 {
  font-family: arial;
  font-size: 300px;
  font-weight: bolder;
  width: 200px;
  height: 300px;
  position: relative; /* To help hold the content value withiwithin */
  overflow: hidden;
  color: #000;
}




.halfed:before, .halfed1:before   {
  width: 50%; /* How much we'd like to show */
  overflow: hidden; /* Hide what goes beyond our dimension */  
  content: 'X'; /* Halfed character */
  height: 100%;
  position: absolute;
  color: #28507D;

}



/* For Horizontal cut off */ 

.halfed1:before   {
  width: 100%;
  height: 55%;
  
}
<div class="halfed"> X </div>
