Really Cool stuff.
I'd maybe look at the letter spacing. Especially the SPACE key. Although you've not got much to play with at that size.

Thanks nippa. I increased the space by 1 unit.

This is a wonderfully evolving mash-up GF. I see so many recognizable typefaces in the DNA, and yet it still maintains a unique originality.

Such elegance with so few bricks. I gave it 10 for its stylish form ... but agreed with nippa about the spacing.

Hope you don't think I'm being too forward, but I took a clone and played with the spacing. I took all glyphs to the right of the left line and brought the letter width line tight to the right of each glyph. I then set the Global Spacing to .6 the following are the results:-

Sorry for double post :-( I had set it for the next image, but it repeated the first.

Going to try one more time (perhaps you would be kind enough to delete the 'spare' A.

I just thought the 'm' needed closing up, and space key widening But you've corrected all that. Looks spot on now, although "fi" combo is a bit ugly. Don't know what to suggest to help out with that one. Sorry P2put, your 'new' spacing is all over the shop, I much prefer Gferreira's.

Well, an fi ligature, of course! Oh, right – how to do that. Hmm, different approaches to matching up the ascender height with the dot (and the ffi to consider). Here’s one:
