Got the new B32 going today

I’m still seeing some things that I can improve on. Being critical of my own work is why continuing to get better

My vertical curves need to be more vertical. And also the minuscule r’s and s’s are fun. I nailed the r in Street though and that’s the model ill shoot for going forward

Oh and “successfully”modded a parallel nib last night although ruined 2 in the learning curve

Wanted to test my new TR and it’s lovely. I wish these A4’s were glue-bound instead of loose

I like where this is going. A little more practice and I’ll be producing impeccable engrossers script

I’m still practicing pointed pen but I’m also brushing up some broad edge stuff. I sketched the filigree in with a pencil.

I incorporated a few things into my script which has definitely helped. So my muscle memory from my fp penmanship was affecting my pointed pen work so I’m slowing down into a different rhythm which is working so I see myself improving.

It’s like the itch that I had to scratch haha. Literally got back out of bed to do this. I had to capture the vision in my head.

As some may or may not know, I’ve been struggling with my Spencerian and getting the Spencerian “look”. My “break” was to be long but I was going through some resources and happened across some already-printed guides and figured I’d try it writing directly on the printed side, usually when I use guides I overlay a blank paper on a printer guide and use a light box if necessary. I’m the early days this how I used to do it. I’ll stick with this for a cuppa days. Those old methods are so reliable.
