    Hi there, I enjoyed the video.
    In the same way that you did the cross bar of the 'T' to give it the correct width before adding the down stroke it's also a good idea to do the down strokes of the 'H' and 'N' at the correct width and then connect them so they aren't too wide or narrow.
    Looking forward to viewing more.

    But it's not the 45 or 30 degree angle for the thinnest lines....it's somewhere around 60 / 70 degrees slant that most of the calligraphers prefer for Italic

      Lol it doesnt matter which goes 1st. She can start the alphabet backwards and her point or the point of this video woukd still be the same. She's just showing us how to write every letter leaving it to us to do what we want with these. You can make a poster, a letter, or a poem at the end they will all have the same font or letter shapes and style. And the n being before or after wouldn't change a thing on my spelling lol

    • @mgo810
      @mgo810 Před 2 lety +7

      She clearly states she is purposefully doing the n before m to show that the m is formed by combining 2 n’s. So if you can do n you can do m.

      I've tried. It doesn't work. Acrylic is too thick by itself, and watering it down makes it lose a lot of it's opacity and color. Can also ruin your pen too if you don't clean it soon enough. I learned the hard way lol.

    That index finger, hurts to look at how tight it is! My issue is ink flow, which is perfect with pointer pens, but way too generous with broad tips. Any tips?

    • @VivianUang
      @VivianUang  Před 2 lety +1

      lol, my mom said the same thing about my finger, but it's just how my finger bent naturally.
      Regarding the ink flow issue, here are things you can try:
      1. Prop up your writing surface so you are writing on a slight slope/angle
      2. Try a different ink
      3. add gum arabic to your ink to adjust the viscosity
      I hope these help!

      Yes, the benefit of using a nib pen is that you can try out different ink. You might need to add some water to dilute it a little so it flows better, I found sumi ink a little too thick. Just make sure you wash the nib afterward. Check out this video for more explanation czcams.com/video/ujnFZSGHeU4/video.html
