Looks good, just needs some refining to make it more balanced. M/b/d/p/q look a bit narrow, and some curves could be better, like in C, S, 2. k's arm should be lower, and g might look better if the bottom loop is bigger than the top one. The space character could be wider too. Keep it up!

@Yautja: Thank you for your constructive criticism. I've made those changes, and I'm working on the rest of the numbers and punctuation.

Wow! This is very pretty. 10/10

A very nice design. 10/10

I think the 'f' needs a bit of negative kerning, so that it doesn't leave too large a space when used with curved characters. You would need to be careful with this in relation to the 'i' and 'l', but I think this is a good compromise ...

@Frodo7: Thanks!

@p2pnut: Thank you for the suggestion. I didn't adjust the kerning quite as far as you suggested, because it would overlap letters like 'b' and 'h'. The way it is set now, the last circle in the 'f' matches up with the top serifs in the uppercase 'B', 'D' and so on, so it doesn't look like an overlap.

I seemed to have a lot of critisism, but it looks great now! Love the &.

@winty5: I'm glad you like it! :)

@yautja: Thank you! I just added the remaining symbols and most of the accents Saturday night. I was messing around with the ampersand for quite a while before I got one that looked right. I didn't have time to finish the accents. I'll finish them later today.

Oh, yeah, and that lowercase c is still a nightmare. I'll fix that too... :-)

This has developed into a really good font. fi and fl ligatures and tilde look excellent in your sample.
