Review on πŸ–‹οΈ Mastering Modern Calligraphy: Faber-Castell Calligraphy Kit with Pitt Artist Pens - Craft Excellence for Adult Lettering and Calligraphy by Kim Sanchez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I've dabbled in handwriting, but not so much calligraphy.

Was glad to get this and try it. That's exactly what a starter kit seems to be. Basically a sample pack with a short getting started book (and online workshops available). As mentioned, I recently started dabbling in hand lettering but found calligraphy a bit more intimidating as when it comes to connecting the letters evenly and neatly I suck πŸ˜„πŸ‘€ This set is great for me , because it really is a base. The black brush pen reminds me a bit of the Tombow markers, which I did pretty well (although the type of ink is different). This one is similar in that the tip of the brush is flexible and smooth, yet durable. This stroke is a bit different, including the ink flow, so it takes me a while to really feel comfortable... like I'm starting something new, and just like I've done with handwritten lettering. Overall I think this is a great set for me and my use. Again, I'm not a pro, and that's probably why it works well for me!
