The below sheet is another result of experimentation with the serifs and strokes and weights of the typeface, based on Bodoni I used tracing paper above to try and be precise. I think I could be onto something with bracketing the serifs, making them flow more, majestically like elevating, floating through. The 'p' and 'q' at the bottom certainly don't work so now I know a large serif would look silly and that I shouldn't mess with the counters.
The results from using single lines and colouring the ascenders is interesting - seen on the 'x' and 'y' I really like the simplicity however not sure how well this works with majestic.
