Handwriting with Montblanc worse than cheap pens?! Please help!
Hi All.
I was unsure if this post belongs to Calligraphy or Montblanc sections, so I thought I should post it here as the question is very much tied to the brand.
I'm a bit frustrated with my handwriting while using Monbtblanc pens. It seems like the nicer the pen, the worse is my calligraphy. I thought it should be the other way around... maybe I am not doing it right, so wanted some piece of advice on what I could do to improve my handwriting on nicer pens.
Why would you think this is happening? Maybe medium pens are too smooth and I loose control?
Maybe they are too wet for the size of my writing?
Could this just be a matter of "getting used to"?
What I could do to improve and "learn"? What am I doing wrong?
It feels soo good writing with the 149 , its smooth and comfortable, but seems like that one shows the worst result!
Below is a quick sample of my writing.

Pens are:
P1 - Very cheap (fine nib) Crown Capricci.
P2 - Montblanc 146 - medium nib but feels quite like a fine nib.
P3 - Montblanc 146 - really a medium nib.
P4 - Montblanc 149 - my favorite pen, but always show worse results.
P5 - A really ceap - not even fountain pen Uniball fine.
Paper is Rhodia - A5 notebook
Please share your advice...
Thanks.
Walter
