There's plenty of different ways of representing vowels. Many unusual ways
of representing them are found in stenography systems, see (and be warned it
was myself who wrote it):

I've always experience that it's difficult to make my scripts look them as I
wanted. I wanted to turn the Stolze-Schrey stenography into something
similar to the Arabic or Mongolic script.

The Stolze-Schrey system is an ugly script (to me) wich can be seen in the
following document of the Schweizerische Stenografenverband:
http://www.steno.ch/pdf/diktat01.pdf

However, the script I came up with didn't look like Arabic or Mongolic at all:

It took me a lot of practice until I could make it resemble Mongolic (and
I'm still working on it):
