I like to be overly critical, so sorry in advance. RM Warren was a font to be expanded, not condensed. The beautiful stroke contrast cannot be condensed without the contrast being ruined.
Again, nice and smooth design, and decent character set. This condensed version look natural, not too crowded. I disagree with j4s13's opinion, at least with the second part. RM Warren had been carefully designed with the possibility of both condensed and extended versions in mind. I don't see the quality suffering any bit with this condensed version. (For the font name use capitals for every word: RM Warren Condensed.) This is a huge amount of work, a massive undertaking, and the output is of high quality. 10/10
Really good font family. The W looks a little bottom-heavy to me (I'd raise the middle a bit), and the ends of K/k and X/x are a little inconsistent. Less sharp commas/quotes could fit better.
I think the condensed proportions suit the font well, but it looks a little "squished" since the vertical lines are narrower than the horizontal ones. But it's a lot of work to condense it properly.

I often do a condensed version so that it can be packaged with other versions when I sell my work.
However, I really must take a look at expanding this one - it's not something I had thought of, so thanks for the tip :)

The offending bricks were tiny composites ... the very smallest that I use.
Guess the moral is - clean my monitor screen more often :)
