I took inspiration from Kurrentschrift (Spitzschrift) and the Thai alphabet to create something that looks South East Asian, but is actually just latin script in disguise.

I'm not sure I'm quite happy with the k. It seems a bit too twirly. The x i stole from Kurrentschrift, but I'm not sure it is legible in this setting.

Looking fantastic. Keep going!

The loops make this so very attractive; but I find some letters a bit hard to recognise (n-p, n-u, m) within some words. The k looks fine in the set though. The x might look more integrated if developed from the oblique line of the r? It might lose part of the original Kurrende lineflow though. Might be my eyes have lost their imagination and fontstructing habit as I am still having time off pc and when I can grab the machine I look at an unusual rather massive screen. 10/10 font value :)

Fantastic look (quite literally, fantasy-like), even if somewhat hard to read.
