Mortiana27's Italic progress
The other day I found a book at the library that looked interesting. Mastering Calligraphy: The Complete Guide to Hand Lettering by Gaye Godfrey-Nicholls. I don't see myself getting too much into lettering, but since I unwittingly bought a calligraphy pen last week (Sheaffer Viewpoint, F nib), I figured that learning italic would be a nice change.
Here is tonight's progress.

Well done!

A good night's work!

That's certainly impressive for a first attempt - certainly better than mine!

Very nice, I'm just starting to learn calligraphy myself and started with italic nowhere near as good as yours, I seem to have real problems with the a's and d's but I'll keep trying. Good luck with yours.

C'mon, let's see more.
I always love to follow pen strokes in my mind when I see written examples.
