G: i'd do something about the bottom right, it feels too heavy
- bolus0
it looks good here, but as you said bigger its a wee bit heavy, maybe just straightening the left side of the vertical line a bit more

Neutratham? :)
I'm no fontsmithie, but I'd use it. My only comments are that I'd like to see a bit more character in the K and the W and that I can't judge a font just by its upper case - it's the numerals and functions that turn me on. I, for one like the G.

Good shit.
Now just knock up a lower case this afternoon

I'm not too keen on what looks like a flat section on the S, the J amy suffer in that regard too. slightly.

Thats a fine wide grotesk. I'm not so sure it needs tweaking and I like the G. Don't do what I did, made a pixel font and never released it because of endless tweaks..

Raise the middle bar in B (so that the upper half is smaller)
- Yeah that or me the counters of equal height, at least.Concrete
- max_prophet0
if he did that he'd have to do the H and the F and the R etc etc and lose all the character of the font tho.
- indeed, thats the point.. somtimes you need to make a compromisemoamoa
- ok, i see it is intended in E, where it is catually the opposite, but I don think it is working in B, looks weirddrgs_not_hugs

i really dig it. the comment about the E is right on, and the S does look like it's somehow tilting clockwise one degree or something.
also, something about the B.

I think you just need to decide on a height for your bar in the B E F G R. Otherwise I really like it.

- not an argument to argue over its aesthetic value, the typeface is fine, but in case you are going to make money on it later....drgs_not_hugs
