From looking at the 9 fonts and comparing them i have chosen to consider times and baskerville to base my typeface on as they are delicate and lighter in appearance than the others.

  Green typeface - Times   Black typeface - Baskerville

Above is my comparison of baskerville and time typefaces, by putting them like this i can clearly see the differences in the two typefaces and decided which is the most appropriate for my typeface stye "hesitant".
Times has sharper edges and strokes than baskerville, its serifs are more pointed, and stroke on the lower case g joins unlike the g of baskerville.
Baskerville has slightly thicker serifs, and g is completely different to times, where as all he other letters have similarities.
Looking at the two fonts in this comparison baskerville looks the more delicate font with its thinner strokes that make it lighter and more rounded edges similar to the aspects i identified that id want my type to be, therefore this is going to be the typeface is base my design on.
