born again by Design

Hera Big has made it big quickly and impressively as his, Lucas Sharp's, first typeface. He's hit the spot with many users from MyFonts including myself. Lucas has achieved an agreeable mix, and I quote: "in a contemporary mood 
of exuberance and playfulness..."

Lately I'm favoring the finer weights of typefaces and indeed I really like the extra fine weight, 'Lighting' in this image it's beautifully rounded and ends 
well with their sprouting tails.
I'm slightly put off by the 't's' in lower case, it seems it needs to be wider 
within the counter, it's looking a little flimsy and out of place compared to how 
strong the others look on the baseline... that's how I see it - what do you think?
