Alpine Font 30 March 2012

Description

Another update to Alpine. Mostly added more glyphs, but also refined some of them a little. I'm trying to decide if I like the direction everything is going in or not. The 'g' especially may need a little help. I was also thinking I may want to use a different tail on the 'u' and 'd', rather than the same as the 'a'.

Beautiful work but I also see several things which need to be worked out. The 'f' seems to want to fall forward but I think it has just the right amount of tension when coupled with other letters. It might be too heavy at the curve before the terminal though. 'g' and 's' want to fall backwards too much though and I can't decide wether 'r' is a case like 'f' or that it just leans too much forward.

The tail on 'a' looks good, the tail on 'd' somehow doesn't look robust enough compared to its serif and on the 'u' it looks a bit awkward and too heavy compared to the tail in 'a'.
