In this image, I think that there are several problems in that direction: separating the lambda into two parts make it look less lambda-ish, and the low point of connecting the leg makes it look less R-ish. I found that using round lines helps in making it possible to lift the hip with it still looking like a lambda.
Is the attached SVG better, in your opinion? I've thickened the left leg, attached it to the slash, changed the angle to more R-ish, and also attached the top of the round bit.
(There's also something else that bugs me, but probably not many
others: de-emphasizing the line at the top makes it look too much like
an aleph ("ℵ"), in some army-like style.)
Yeah, but aleph is cool. If you're seeing aleph, I call that a bonus. In fact, we should see how many letters from different alphabets we can cram in there!
Uh, not really. :D Neil ⊥
