i really like all of these. especially the should-be-awkward, but really-not-awkward “G.” the italics are nice, too. perhaps you don’t even need lowercase.

Thanks, I’m glad that you are acknowledging and accepting that the G is awkward, because thats exactly how i feel about it. Its a distinct part of the character of these lettering styles, and part of why I wanted to do it.

I just started to think that R is not quite right. I think I might feel that it’s too narrow? Or the base of that leg should be moved to the left so the angle is slightly more extreme? Just putting it out there. Otherwise, A-ok

I think you may be right. It is a little narrow.

Chris, that looks really great.
I agree a bit about the R, maybe it needs to be a bit wider or something too.. it just seems a bit squished.
Also, the S seems a bit awkward to me, where it is tilted back. I know you kind of have that going on with some of the other letters, but for some reason it looks weird to me on the S.

Looks great, Chris. Love this presentation.
One thing–I think the name, ‘Indicator’, needs to have some more oomph to it… it gets lost and I don’t know if I would remember it had I not been so familiar with the type already. maybe larger, knocked out of black, a color, etc?

Chris, the S still seems crooked to me, I mentioned it before, and I think it looks like you tilted it forward a little, but it still seems like its backbone is leaning to one side.
