Something that keeps jumping out at me a bit is that the б appears to have a nearly flat-nibbed/contrast contrast, whereas I see this family as more of low-contrast to sometimes reverse-contrast design. So, in the context of other glyphs, the top-left shoulder here looks a bit out of place. This also feels important in the Light drawing for в.
Of course, I realize that I’m not a native reader of Cyrillic, so my opinions should be taken with a grain of salt. But, here’s what I think might look a little more natural in this design:
@sikeiros if you disagree with this, it’s your call! Feel free to close this once you see this and either make edits or decide not to. Thanks!
