I see an old banknote & billhead influence, but also a touch of mid-20th Century chrome scripts. Rather than trying to make a complete font, I'd use this for one-off custom lettering or a logo.

I think your W should be symmetrical like your V, and the tail on the Q could be a lot less heavy. The S & Z don't quite work for me, but reversing the Z might make a slightly better S. The J might work better with the bottom serif being on the left side too.

Thanks for the suggestions and sorry for the delay. I've made some changes to the characters and working on a set of numerals. (I know the 2 and Z can be confused, but I'm working on solving that.)

Justin:: The letters started from a sketch I did about a year ago and at the time I was looking at a lot of stock certificates and old financial documents. While I wasn't consciously doing it, the influence must have crept in there. But your comment now gives me a source to mine for the problems I cross. Thank you.

• I've changed the W per suggestions and dug it.
• I flipped the Z design to make the new S and it looks better. The old S was too round.
• I was experimenting with the J design. It does look better with the serif on the other side.
• Made a new tail for the Q. I think it has the right weight and really makes the character unique to the font.

riccard0:: After careful consideration and experimenting, I didn't change the "beard" on the G. The alternatives didn't carry the same strength and weight I wanted to keep.
