Ligature Mayhem
Sometimes when making fonts, the trick is knowing when to stop. These are my ligatures [so far] for my font: Grant Avenue, named after the street where I work in SF.

This could become a new go to for anyone needing something in the vein of Trajan.
While the UL ligature works, I'm not sure the other U* ligatures work. They almost look like a lowercase l with a swash connecting to an uppercase character. The same thing holds for the TU, and UT.
The ZA could be tighter. So could the XY, the way they join is whacky stuff.
The LR could be tighter and then just extend the stroke on the R into the baseline stroke of the L.
The CK is a little odd, but I could see it being a logomark.
The swashes, for me, don't fit the mood yet.
I know it is just in the beginning stages so I'll shutup before you ban my IP. Nice work, as usual.
