Enter your best pen (the No. 2 is recommended for specification exercises) and do a little revive Belles Scriptures through the advice of the author. Do not be fooled by its small size: this book takes you by the hand and teaches you the Ductus - the order of the route of every line of the letter - and how to drive the pen to produce beautiful thick and thin strokes. As long as you apply and you're training, the Onciale (my favorite), Carolina, the original Gothic, Textura, the Fraktur and the English will soon have no more secrets for you. End of the book you will find the other signs: numbers, punctuation, accents and apostrophe.
The advantage of this format and price is if you do not feel comfortable with calligraphy, you will not have lost a lot of money and time .. and that otherwise it will be all benef '! You can even invest in complementary works, including the illuminated letters.
