Bryan... what is the second word?

Yes the seconde word is smoke. Please feel free to give any critique or advice. Is the seconde word hard to read ??

I alway find it effective, when designing with Blackletter (or anything for that matter), to start out with the most rudimentary forms, get them situated (check readability/legibility!!!!!!!) and then add your nuances/embellishments. Mixing caps and lower case is going to make your job very difficult.

Good luck.
