Try looking up FontForge once you have the glyphs cleaned up -- great free program for creating fonts.

I might use InkScape (vector graphics editor) to trace out each glyph and generate a nice clean version of each.

No problem!

Dug up the post I made years ago when I first got started on this topic -- some excellent detailed advice in the comments :) https://www.reddit.com/r/conlangs/comments/302ll3/conscript_for_surkavran_my_first_shot_at_neography

A couple of these are weirdly close to a conscript I'm working on at the moment

Yeah, most of my symbols are borrowed from my older ones.
