My grandfather wrote copper plate. Gorgeous writing. I very much want to learn it.
awesome grandfa
Found out that the cursive my country teaches is called copperplate today, I’ve been writing in that font my whole life and now I know.
Check out the app called Lazy Dog. You will need a stylus for your phone. Just one of those rubber tipped ones will work.
@@horseshoe_nc ok thank you
@@anhhuynhkimnguyen6793 me toooo 😂😂
Fun Fact: Copperplate is the know style of Timothy Matlack who is the scrivener of the Declaration of Independence. Scrivener is someone with expert penmanship and good handwriting.
Great thank you for sharing.

That one kid with really good hand writing in school you always envied
😊
The 'C' in copperplate is so exquisitely done...
Thank you
I'm kinda bummed by the fact you can get line variation with a pencil and I can't do with with a flex nib...
+notconvincedgranny it takes time and patince and you can do it too.
There are several tips for how to learn to write better
Decide exactly why you want to learn
Find what process works for you best.
(I discovered about these and more from Secret Smart Scripter website )
He did
is it not sad? fountain pens are so addictive....pencils can be as well...
Its mostly to do with pressure. Like he said, it take practice:)
Learned cursive since kindergarten however it was my mom who taught me. Schools in the Philippines taught it at grade 2 however barely anyone in my class use it after that. The struggle I keep facing is keeping it constantly straight and on the line of the paper!
I know the struggle with keeping it on the line. I often switch paper from lined to plain and use a guidesheet so i dont have to think of the line🙂
Lol, I live in the Philippines and I can relate.
I had no idea there were different ways to write besides cursive. That was all they taught us in school. Nowadays, I don't think they even teach that anymore.
They teach it but if you wont to explore the ways how to write in different scripts you have to look by youself.
I am super impressed by your technical pencil line variation - that was amazing.
Thanks
Wow, so happy I found your channel. I love seeing this slow as it reminds me that I really need to nail this slowly and then pick up speed if I want it to look right for the cursive. I'm a bit impatient haha. It's nice to see this can be achieved even with a 0.5 mm tip! I see that you have a lot of calligraphy, but would love to see more cursive as well too! Great job.
Thank you for liking the videos. Writing slowly is the key. I plan to make more videos about cursive so stay tuned. 😄
Sadly I'm left handed. If I tried this it would look like a truck had skidded across a freeway
facts, btw try it with the Pilot fountain pen or in general pilot roller ball pen, they dry super quick and my hand/palm does not get the ink on the skin, for me , Pilot's pens work great, but yes cursive gets annoying to write sometimes, am trainin my right hand tho, so good luck to me
Great tip
Try Spencerian script. One of the best and best for right and left handed writers.
Thats true. Now i learning the Champion Method of Practical Business Writing.
I understand your struggle.
😔
At primary school in England we did LOTS of writing and repetitive patterns. It's important to be relaxed while writing and taking your time, thinking about what you want to say!!!
Exactly as you say it. Relax and taking your time is important
A beautiful art form that is almost forgotten today. I was taught cursive in 1st grade but rarely use unless signing credit card purchases. Thx for keeping it alive!
I'm just a handlettering slash modern calligraphy person currently trying copperplate and penmanship. It took already 2 months since I practiced basic strokes consistency and rightaway I see the difference now! Now I like to handletter more with copperplate slant guide, dot grid or squared paper; and I've been addicted to this till I almost hate it to write on blank paper 😅🙈
Sounds like you have the right idea, get the basics down with exercises first before trying to write actual words. Hope you kept it up because after a year you should be quite good by now.
I always write in copperplate. It is very beautiful.
Excelent
so satisfactory to watch
+Shahzil Rizwan Glad you liked it
yes it was very _satisfactory_
+Gordon Ramsay cool thanks Gordon
Shahzil Rizwan hi
It's a good way to slow down ourself. In these very fast times we shuold teach this kind of writing in school.
you deserve more subscribers
That is mesmeric!
+Kerry B 😃
I struggle with the letter C. Yours is absolutely perfect.
A treat for the eyes. The grid of the paper might have influenced your slant a little, but it still looks well balanced.
Thank you. To avoid the slant issue i could have drawn some slant lines. Next time 😀
Breathtaking....!!!
I love the Copperplate and the Lettering, i love it.
Simplesmente lindo.
This video is so satisfying 😍😍😍😍😍👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 thanks for posting.
Thank you
WUAW its beautiful
Hello, how are you? It's been a while you don't post any video. Hope everything is ok for you. Hope hearing from you soon.
Hi, I’ve been busy with my regular work and had not that much time to post new videos. That should change soon. In the meantime you can check out our Instagram 😉. And thank you for your kind message.
2pixel.net you are welcome, I'm glad you are ok.
Haha, I'm a bit anti social networks person, but guess finally I'll have to get into Instagram.
I can tell you that I bought Julien Chazal book "Calligraphy: a complete guide", do you know it? It's a great material, but I'm afraid it's too advanced for my level 😔
Have a great day!
Hi, I don’t know this book but by looking at pictures and the index it looks great with lots of beautiful scripts. Don’t worry choose one script you like and give it a go. 🙂✏✒
2pixel.net ok, I'll try, thanks
The good ol' Rotring Tikky. Loyal to me throughout my education and never once let me down.
If you are like me, with arthritis or other problem with stiff fingers, it helps to relax your grip and let your arm move. Warm up by making a bunch of random circles and spirals, gradually becoming more precise. That's how I was taught, back in the pre-digital dark ages. It still works - no matter what kind of pen/pencil/brush you use. And - practice, practice, practice!
Thank you for the great comment. Practice makes perfect.
Your writing is amazing
Thank you
Beautiful.
+Katy Beadle thank you
Lovely handwriting 😍
Do you know of any tips or Advice on learning Spencerian script?
I always write cursive but I can never acquire the skill to write Copperplate. This is a great form of art.
I envy those with their special techniques to write Copperplate so beautifully.
You just made brushstrokes with a frickin click pencil. Teach me your ways!
I plan on making a tutorial so please stay tuned

Hello I would like to ask if I have both dyslexia and dysgraphia is it possible to do calligraphy?
I remember using those gridded notepads for sketches but now we have to do it on plane pages, thanks to school thinking plane paper would promote better artistic approach ;-;
вы какой роллер предпочитаете
omg I loved ur aal writings😍
+Meow kitty Thanxxxx 😅
How beautiful
I'm thank you
I learned cursive since 1st grade and i barely write normal letters
Mobile Gamer the UK and Ireland and Wales
Nice I learned it in 3rd grade..
But sadly I learned it alone..
Mobile Gamer i didn't learn cursive at all in elementary school. Basically my mom put me in a shitty private school and they only thought me how to write manuscript (print)
Same
in Brazil everyone writes in cursive. If you don´t you´re probably 5/6 or a teenager who has a tumblr
Is it possible with enough practice, to write Copperplate fast? Like so i could use it for taking notes, school Etc.
This is so satisfying
😍
Nice
+Alizaa Sayyed 😄
So beautiful
Thank youu
Gracias 🙌📚✏

What is the name and cost of that second number pen
Bro 3 no wala Pan kis brand ka hai
Why is it that I can only write 1 letter per dip. :( The ink is so fast to flow. Please help me.
+kingDAVID Hi, there may be 2 reasons why. Did you prepare the nib before use? Remove the anti-corrosive coating. This has an effect how much ink the nib can hold. The second reason is that your ink may be too thin like ink for fountain pens. You can try a different ink or you can try to thicken it with gum Arabic. If this didn’t help you can try a pointed pen nib with a reservoir that can hold more ink. I hope this helps you.
kingDAVID I know your post is 4 months old, but 1 more tip that might help, do everything OP said but also make sure you dip the nib into the ink until the ink touches the "eye" of the nib. This is the little hole in the center of the nib.
Amazing
Nicely done
Thank you
Wt pen is that,could u recommend us pls 😀
Link plis buy the plums
I'd like to buy this fountain pen I see in the video, could you please tell me its name? Thank you!
I don't know why but i read the word in my head in super slow motion as you're writing it
May i know the difference between Cursive & Copper plate.
Wow...,👌👌👌👌
Which type of pen is best for cursive handwriting?
The best pens are that you already have. A foutain pen, ballpoint pen or a gel pen are great for cursive.
What kind of paper did you use{write(?)} ?
+김영준 Hi it's a regular squared notebook with 70g/m paper. The brand is Kaufland classic (static.mydealz.de/live/threads/thread_card_big/default/482955_1.jpg).
I have a question, is it ok to tilt the nib like that? Afaik you are not supposed to give unequl pressure to either tines?
Great observation. I used to tilt the nib a little so it doesn't scratch the paper much. Its a habit i got from business penmanship.
Hey. First things first.Thanks for the video.You know I'm really into cursive writing but unfortunately I got no complete guides.As a person who is a proffessional in this scope what you suggest.Are there any complete guides to learn how to write cursive?I'd really appreciate it if you wounld help out
Thank you for your great comment - hope a can be of help. There are a lot of versions of Cursive ranging from easy to more advance.
Here is a Link to some easy Exemplar images for Cursive www.google.sk/search?q=cursive+writing&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiO6PqwouLYAhUB6CwKHWRmCGgQ_AUICigB&biw=1305&bih=857.These should be very straight forward.

Hi. Thanks for your help. I know you receive lots of comments and I do apprectiate the time you spend on each one. Live long and prosper. By the way your resources were really helpful
Superb 👏👏
Thank youu
I can't write the Italic style of the " C" .But i always practicing how to write the Italic style of the "C".
Dip pen makes thick and thin stroke automatically or we need to press the nib like pencil
Too get a thicker line width you must press slightly thicker on your down stroke. Allso you can use fountain pens with a flex nib like a noodlers abab or conklin duroflex. For dip pens I recommend zebra g nibs.
thank you so much
Very good bravoooooo
Hello!!! Could you tell me what ink you use?
It's some time but i think it was the Koh I Noor Foutain pen ink.
Love it sir
+Pinky Kumai Thank you
Welcome sir
Please motivate me
+Pinky Kumai choose a script you like and start practicing. The more you practice the better you get.
l like it
thank you
Nice guys
Is it posible to do Copperplate with a fountain pen? Or does it really needs to be a flex nib?
I can do copperplate with a pencil and a ballpoint, but with my pelikan twist or my pilot metropolitan, I can’t do it, because I don’t get the line variation.
I was quiet surprise that with a ballpoint I could get line variation but not with my fountain pens
The line variation is possible with a flexible nib. Some fountain pens have a flex nib so it is possible but they are expensive.
With flourish would be cool
+RaMiRo LoPeZ great idea
달인이네! 달인 그야말로 기계같아 보여요.!!!
А с наклоном в лево есть? Для левши?
Very beautiful 😍👌👌
Thank youu
My penlifts are far too many. How do you beat this when writing cursive?
Dont think too much about the pen lifts. If you have to lift the pen then do it. It's normal in cursive. Maybe you can try to work on your pen hold. That is very important. By comfortly holding the pen you have more controll and less pain. Use the dynamic tripot hold. You can also turn the paper so it is parallel with your hand. Maybe the image link will help you imagine it better: i.ytimg.com/vi/w5DLE4dwrL4/maxresdefault.jpg
Bahai paly bal pen ka name kya ha
Which pen you used
+Mehak Khan Hi i use a Mechanical Pencil Rotring Tikky 0.5, Pilot G2 Gel Pen and a Zebra G-Nib.
ชอบมาก จะหาเวลวฝึกจ้า
Which mechanical pencil you used?
Rotring tikky 0,5
Why don't you try some higher end rotring pencils such as the 600 or the 800?
+Doc Melih That's a good idea. I wanted to try them but couldn't get them where i live.
2pixel.net i got your point well i will be waiting to see them if get any newer models, astounded by your writing by the way..
Whaaat! How did you write "Copperplate" with the pen on the last part (sorry i forgot what it's called)
If i were to do that, I will dip it again with ink after writing the letter C then after O and P, I will dip it again!
@@2pixelgroup Thank you very much :D
I thought you were using a fountain pen with the Zebra nib ^^
What pens are you using...???
Hi i use a Mechanical Pencil Rotring Tikky 0.5, Pilot G2 Gel Pen and a Zebra G-Nib.
What kind of ink? I bought a calligraphy mini pen with 3 size nibs but the ink cartridge is for fountain pens and doesn't really work. I want to try this so badly but feel doomed to fake calligraphy with my fine nib fountain pen.
Hi i also used a fountain pen ink in the video. To get the various line width you need to use a dip pen with a pointed flexible nib. Those calligraphy sets are for other caligraphy styles like italic or gothic whitch are also beautiful.
Kimberly was in cursive. the rest wasn't.. under her name it said.."you can't unfriend ..." something it started with a c
That's gorgeous but what does copperplate
Copperplate is a classical script where you write letters with various line thickness. It's also known as English Roundhand.
Write for me tow page where I could learn because you are nice writer
is the wind blowing?
It does
Oh.
What kind of ink did you use?
+Sebastián Ramírez I used the Koh-i-noor blue foutain pen ink
Its crazy because a lot of people have trouble with cursive. But when im writing for a while i naturally lean to cursive because its smoother
It's a more natural motion writing without stops.
So I know who to do cursive letters do u just try to connect them
+Emma Sibley hi yes formal cursive script has joined letters
2pixel.net ok thanks I have been practicing and now I can write cursive!
Emma Sibley I
ah ... that was satisfying.
Thankss
Lindo
Mine was kind of like that not too pretty like yours but i stopped practicing and now it looks like poop... Beautiful writing but the way 💖
Super
Thanks super to youuu😀
please tell me what pen he's using. The one i use isn't appropriate for copperplate writing
Hi I use a Mechanical Pencil Rotring Tikky 0.5, Pilot G2 Gel Pen and a Zebra G-Nib.
@@2pixelgroup thanks a lot 💙😊
Could you talk us through this? It would add a lot
Maybe in the future
In Romania you are thought the Copperplate one in 1st grade
That is great. In slovakia too
Beautiful ...a huge amount of balance on flexinib pen. Got a new frnd here. Sbscrbd.
Thank you
