This was an awesome in-depth tutorial. A lot of the resources I've found don't go into detail on some of the techniques you mention about strokes ("ending the stroke going in, not out"), but you go through this very clearly. Thanks so much!
Hi Paul. Wrote to you maybe 2 years ago about the Pilot Parallel Pen, 6 mm, with a CURVED modified nib. Have not been able to put it down....scripting something that resembles Copperplate. You wrote back that copperplate is only done with a split nib, and I understand that...... but I'm requesting that you give it a try (I use quality drawing paper for great hairlines) If you are beyond Doctorate level in Calligraphy, I am a freshman in high school, so I'd like to see a professional do a video on this pen. I've yet to see a video showing pen manipulation in forming the "Copperplate" letters. Fun!!! Thanks!
