Yup, pretty nice!

I also dug up Crimson on my end, so, here comes a couple of screenshots to illustrate mandy314's post.

On the left if the original font, on the right is the tweaked one. (I didn't touch the General Ascent/Descent, nor the Em Size).

Basically, killing the line gap and matching the metrics' ascent/descent to the general ones usually works pretty well for me.

(If you're wondering why my Fontforge doesn't look like crap, it's because I'm using a recent snapshot build ;p).

EDIT: Linked these two posts in the Notes section of the first post.
