My first true italic font, work in progress. Thrillions of years just to make a k that seems like it's running out of the word. Someone stop that k! It's willing to scape from my crappy alphabet!! -

I've so many things to learn. I've done lots of fonts this summer, shure, and I've certainly improved in this weeks and received top picks, but that really has little importance. A font is a tool. A weapon we choose to make effective messages in the real world. So a beautifully made font is nothing compared to a useful, reliable font with a meaning for the people out there. And that hasn't happened yet.
Besides, I have all the time in the world to practice. I'm pretty shure that if someome is connected like I am to fonstruct, sooner or later, they'll improve. Not everyone has the opportunity (or the motivation)to spend 4 or 5 hours a day in front of the computer.
The point is: I'm not a genius. If you are reaaally into making fonts and you have the opportunity and the time needed for learning, you can be a real master.
I assume you realise g & q are the same. As it is italic, it may look better if you add a left bar on the t & f.
P2pnut: I'm willing to make caps for this, but if it takes half the time i needed for the x, I'll die first. XD. Meanwhile, numbers, accents and simbols.
djnippa: Thank u so much for your suggestions, I've changed g's tail and t/f crossbar. By the way, why is it that italics have left and right bar? legibility or something?
