My first font here. Unfinished. I could really use some suggestions on some of the rest of the letters, especially that pesky "D".

Here are four B's, four D's and eight E's :)

I'll take these suggestions into account, especially the pesky D. The B might match as well. As for the E, I like the third/fourth options, except the left stroke is completely connected to the top stroke.

I've added in the B and D. I may change their tops to the square-ending one. I've also made three ideas for E. Which "E" is best?
Comment by TheHockeyist 14th july 2014
i like cmunks fouth "E" the most

I mean the three E's I have in my font right now.

I think you should settle on one construction principle (broad nib? isometric extrusion?) and follow from there.
Comment by riccard0 14th july 2014
A good start. As riccard0 says you should stick to one consistant style per font.

The idea behind this font is that it is geometric and completely based on horizontal, vertical, and a diagonal line moving to the lower left, with a few minor exceptions for legibility (e.g. N, which would require a diagonal in the other direction). This is the style that is used in this font.
