Hey,

I've taken an existing typeface; re-sketched it slightly modified, scanned then inked it in illustrator. This is the first time I've ever done anything like this. There are a few things I want to change, would like to hear your opinions/criticisms.

I wrote the word 'eleven' :)

The exit stroke of e isn't fluid. The loop of v is a bit wonky.

I concur with riccard0: the flow doesn’t work. Imagine writing this with a pen and try to emulate that — eg: upstroke of e = loop of l, etcetera.

Well it's not as constructive but I'm gonna say it looks quite nice. Smooth out a few curves and you've got yourself a very attractive script.

Very nice. Bit close to Coca Cola maybe?!

What was the original font? Reminds me a bit of Chicago Script
