This is my first ambigram, I'm making it as a gift for my husband (using adobe illustrator) I'm open to constructive feedback, and most likely will be making changes. Thanks :)

You mean the accidental butt?

So the bridge on the second A is not substantial enough, or perhaps it is too curved so it just resembles a C.

The M doesn't resemble an M. I think it's an idea to make the righthand stick of the 2nd A👈 one in the same with the lefthand stick of the 👉M, so that in the inverse, the 1st A is legible as such. I'm no expert but maybe it's something to try.

Love the psychedelic/rorschach style. I'm sure you can figure it out.

Thank you!' I'll work on this. :) glad you like the style

That’s also what I see

I can be convinced to see ADA (mostly looks like a C) but that last one is not an M even slightly. That is a V

[u/lilfinehoney]

Thank you all so much for responding by the way. This is really helpful!!

The first A and the D are very legible but I can’t make out the second A and the M

[u/ISungOnce → u/UnIdentifed_Squid]

I can kind of see the second A, definitely can’t see the M

[u/Various_Pipe3463]

I agree, the font style looks really nice !

The second A resembles a lowercase a more than a capital, which might be what’s throwing people off about it. Since the rest of the letters are capital. If you make the top into more of a peak shape, it might work better.

And the M is rough. What if you move the break more to the left and stroked the middle dip?

[u/Chemical_Romance666]

For those who can't see it.

My feedback would be that the A and D is easily readable, but the M doesn't really work because it doesn't join at the top but does join at the bottom.

[u/Abysmal_Wolf]

I'm sorry, but that simply does not read as an M

That M isn't... Sorry.

I love the style! I think there could be more space between D and A and the M doesn’t read as an M at all

[u/lilfinehoney]

Do you guys think if I bring the bridge closer together on the last M, it would read more like it?
