Need a critique for my Cyrillic, please

Jan Janecek0 votes

Hi,
I have started designing a Cyrillic character set for my typeface, despite the fact I did not know practically anything about it. However, it was quite a big challenge for me. I have found little resources in books (mostly Russian ones) as well as on the internet and I checked few typefaces which I consider well done. But still, it was quite complicated to find any relevant information.
So I would like to ask you whether you could give me any feedback, I want to move on.
Thank you.

ф seems a bit too wide and overbearing?

It looks very nice to me, though that might just be telling about how little insight I have into the Cyrillic script.

I think it's very nice in general.

The only changes I would do is to reduce the breve's weight in the curve and increase it in the drops and maybe change the У's foot based on Л's starting.

Nice job.

Best wishes.

Thank you a lot, guys!! I really appreciate!
@sardiez – Well, I've got the same idea about 3 days ago :) Thanks
