180 Light-ish Roman

The O and Q could be a little wider.  The stem of Y could be shorter in relation to the top.   

Light-ish Roman, at 12 pen widths tall, lies somewhere between heavy Roman that is 5 pen widths tall (July 10) and very light Roman that is 16 pen widths tall (March 28).  It's light but not gravity-defying.  

Like other light versions of familiar scripts, there's nowhere to hide. You have to get the lines straight, make the corners square, and keep your hand steady.
