Description:
Done with a use of 2:1 scaling... This one somehow came out kind of 50s style... the reason is probably that i just finished playing "bioshock". brilliant game!

er...maybe i missed something.

could anyone tell me how to edit an "empty" space for the space bar?

Very 1930's. I Like it all apart from Capital 'P' (Do you think the centre bar needs moving up?), plus Capital 'W'- that middle vertical is a bit ugly, have you done any more alternatives, the lower case works well), also the spacing on 3 looks like it's out).

9/10

@nippa:
i thought about these glyphs, especially "W"...
"3" and "P" are ok i think, maybe i'l retouch "W", even if the way to the actual version was long :P

anyway thanks for suggestions

*changed "W"... better?

I feel in my chest the approaching hoofbeats of a pink palomino.

Excellent stuff, the W is a major improvement. Maybe leave the original one in as an alternative, in the extended Latin section.
Also any chance of a '&' character?

thanks for inspiring me to an oldschool "&" i always wanted to do...
strange this glyph has his roots in the word "et", which means "and".

verry nice, well balanced, but the R bothers me a bit

It's a little strange indeed...
i didn't see that before.
Hm...
Now that you said that, i kind of agree.

*edit.
the "R"'s a little more like "P" now. better i think, thanks.
let's see what i can do :)
