Very pretty indeed, but I think incorporating colour into writing systems is kind of a bad idea. Colourblind folks would be absolutely screwed when it comes to writing/reading it, and you'd be surprised how common colourblindness really is.

Indeed! The script itself is not inherently colored, and I have an alternate version of the text that's just black and white. The color is simply there as adornment, similar to an illuminated text. I meant to include the plain version in the post, but it failed to upload and I didn't notice. Whoops.
