This is quite striking and unique. Though some characters are a little hard to make out. G, for instance. I'm sure you could work out more easily recognizable alternative. I don't know if this can be done but it might help the font if the visual direction of all the shapes pointed in the same direction. The V points heavily to the right while the S leans towards the left. This creates some jumble.
Nice concept, with a futre retro feel to it. This would work well with two colour letters. Although, as usual there are a few characters I'd tweak. The main ones for me are P & R, they look too small, they both need widening, also 'I' looks to be a different colour. It might be better to use the style of the H on it's side for it. With Q, the tail feels it needs to be either higher, or the angle of the leg needs to start lower. I also think the down stoke on the D, should be as far left as possible. The E may look better if it were an upside down C. Maybe extend the down stoke on the G a little. A tweaked version of the E may be better as the F, as the F looks a bit like a lower case 'r', and a little bit sad.
I'd also planned on making something along these lines for a while now, but haven't been able to settle on a set of construction guidelines or aesthetics.
This is a good attempt, but I can only reiterate most of the improvements that Nippa pointed out. It's a great start but, in my opinion, it could benefit from a little more cohesion between each letter.
Just... Take care of not loosing the global spirit in tweaks ! But even gems can always be improved ! Yhis is a really open structure so it can be joyfully manipulated. I'm actually experimenting this trying to make my first professional versions of some of the fonts i made here and thought achieved.
I'd suggest that, unless you change them just a little, if the changing is radical to keep the olds as alternates :0)

Is this my masterpiece?
Overall, good work.

Interesting work though.
Thanks for your comment.
I am happy to read these from you.
Now anyone can tweak 'en druna' and make it better.
:)

thanks:)
I'm just trying to find a balance and cohesion for this.
and we still able to read it. Bravo
