3 Common Brush Pen Mistakes (and how you can fix them!) 

Thank you Becca, I’ve had some of these mistakes doing the drills so this was really helpful to make me aware of my pen hold and angle and most importantly to slow down x

This was super helpful. I've just bought my first twin tip (graduating from the fude hard) and it's been quite an adjustment.

Really amazing!these three problems are the ones that are really annoying for beginners..and kudos to you for helping them with such brilliant solutions 😃❤️ one of the most helpful video I ever found on improving calligraphy!🙌💯

Tip flip, soggy bottom, gap top... thanks for new jargon for these issues and how to cure these problems.

This is really helpful and well explained, thank you!

Thank you Becca. Brilliant!!

Thank you! That third one has been impossible for me to figure out. Can't wait to use these fixes while practicing my next drills. 😊

Thank you for this video, Becca! I was having so much trouble with the pen flip especially. This is a big help!!

This video was so helpful! Guilty of gap top, but it was getting nastily difficult for me to determine what was going wrong😅 thank you so much for these useful tips! Much appreciated!💕

I'm guilty of all three. Thanks for the reminders.

Oh snap Becca! 😱😱😱 this changes everything helpful clarification!!

OMG! OMG! I almost gave up getting into calligraphy because of the pesky tip flip! I could never fix it. This video saved my new hobby from the trash bin!

This video has been a complete game changer! Thank you so much!

Great video Becca, love to see this type of content!

Your videos are always so helpful. I have learned so much more in the last month of watching your videos than in three decades of using books to learn calligraphy and lettering. This video is a perfect example that demonstrates problems that can occur and how to correct them, really love your teaching style. I just downloaded your Guide to get the proper materials. Once set up I will go back to your beginners videos because I pretty much have been doing everything wrong lol! Should be interesting for this old sea dog to unlearn bad skills. Thanks again

Helpful as always! Thank you!

Thanks Becca, great advice as always

I binged most of the videos of your beginners Playlist today with this being the last video. I kept struggling with the tip flip so much when I was practicing the oval basic strokes. Should have watched this video earlier on haha.This really helped a lot!

This is a great video! When I first started I would have these problems but I kinda figured it out eventually lol but definitely great for beginners.

Thank you so much for this video. i was literally facing these three issues all the time. Its been just 3 days since i started learning and your videos are very helpful.

Thank you!! I was having two of these but only sometimes and could not figure out what was causing it. I'm already doing so much better. Thanks!

Wow!! All my questions answered! Thanks 🙏

Thanks this will be very helpful for my drills.

I get the gap top occasionally with my tombow. I still go a bit too quick some days

Cool video! I'm new to calligraphy, so your videos are so helpful! Thanks for sharing!

The tip flip has been making me NUTS. Thank you for the easy fix! LOVE your work and your course!!!

thanksss!! i always do all the three! lol but im working on it right now with your videos! tkx!

Amazing tips. Thanks and must needed info

Oh my goodness! These have been driving me crazy. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain!

Thank you!

thanks

Is it a good idea to use the brush pens on wood, or other mediums?? I would imagine plastic and glass would be okay, but wood (sanded), is what I am more concerned about. Thanks for your wonderful tutorials. 😊

Thanks so much for this!

You are my go-to to learn new things! You are a great teacher and fabulous artist. Love your videos! I hope you can help me with this issue: While coloring a card with tombow dual brush pens I used way too much color and is too dark. Is there a way to fix this problem? Thanks ❤️ Cheryl

Thank you the tip flip has been sooooo annoying

Would be grateful if you could advise all types of brush pens

This is really helpful

Hi! New hand letterer here. With reference to the "tip flip" issue: I'm a lefty- would the 45 degree angle of the pen held in the opposite direction still work? I'm concerned I won't be able to do the same if the pen is angled out to the left while yours is to the right! Thanks :)

What pen would you recommend to address envelopes for wedding invitations?

Can you do vid that shows use how to fix a. Spray brush pen

Thank you!!!!

as a left hander, I can't make any of these mistakes.. like literally I tried making an oval with a gap top or a tip flip and I literally could NOT. then I tried with my right hand.. it was a bit (a lot) wobbly but I was able to get a gap top no prob

This is very helpfull to watch n. I love videos... U see I'm a left handed person so can u give some left handed person tips

SoGgY bOtToM🥴 (idk why but I found this so amusing lmao)

Newbie here. Not alot of choices for brush pen here in a small island from the Philippines. I grabbed whatever brush pen I could get. The problem I got is this very very soft brush pen, that's really hard to do the strokes with correctly. Any tips? Please.....I really want to learn how to do calligraphy.

I think ur able to make these nice cubes and ovals because u have a nice brush pen

Wow

This was 7 minute of torture for me

👍🏼

I wanna know the calligraphy of each alphabet leter capital n small as well

Where is the link?

Pesky problem No 4. Is having your felt tip sneak in there and make it's point after declaring that it wouldn't be used! Touche...

I have no word.

Why my pen tip break even though i did the way you did? 😭😭😭

n

none of ur solutions work bcos my pen sucks :(
