This one is sidetracking me from finishing Mocktura properly. Story of my life.

This is great. The lowercase has a very nice cursive feeling, while the caps has classic roman proportions.

Did you try a less exotic g? :-)

Well... I had the same "bumping into the ceiling" problem with the g that I'm having with the 8 -- but in this case digging through the floorboards!

A less eccentric fix would be to make a single bowl g, but this font is determinedly whimsical, so I'm reluctant...

Of course I'll give in and do a "proper" g eventually. It does get old after a paragraph or so.

Do you think I can fudge the rules a bit with my 8 glyph? It's occupying a baseline all its own (hah hah!) at the moment but I can't compress it much more before it loses any link to its siblings altogether.

There's always one child that acts up...

Ohh! Will you look at that W. How whimsical. You should be daft more often. ;)

PS: Thank you for leaving the 9 unfinished.

Regarding the g – you could try an open 'tail' like in FF Signa. And regarding the 8 – maybe you can bring it up to the baseline, and extend the 'ascender' of the 6 to match?

they keep getting smoother and smoother. the B and R are smoooth. W is like thalamic said - wicked. another unique and legible font. congrats :)

these faces you've made are ill.

I'm not up with the play with modern usage: ill in the sense of wicked, dope or sick, or just ill?

Somehow I missed this gem: a rare diamond. An instant FS classic. 10/10

It looks good ... then you look at the sample text and - it looks great!

I think intaglio was doing 2.0 before it was possible. :-)
