The end of this will be very smooth and integrated, the curves and thicknesses will all match, etc. Typography, even artistic typography, boils down to the subtlest variations in letterform - a miniscule tweak can change something from perfect to horrid or vice versa.
Patrick - yes, I have a bit of experience at this. About 30 years' worth.

I think you are right on with you own assessment, the 'A' is the tough part. Making it not look almost like an 'R', is the real challenge ... keep up the good work!
