Have a terrible and blurry pic of mine:



It tends to vary between kind of neat and absolutely terrible and illegible, usually depending on how much of a hurry I'm in. Also, I just noticed that I misspelled 'fountain pen' as 'fountain pain'. How very appropriate :haw:

My handwriting is still awful, though. I just don't feel bad about it.

Your handwriting reminds me very much of this one webcomic writer's (illustrator's?).

I've been told my handwriting looks left-handed.

When I sign my last name, I make the last three letters the way my mom wrote them. I picked that up from all the times I forged her signature on tests and papers we had to have our parents sign in school.

You know, in all honesty, that really makes me happy. I've only had one other person tell me that in my entire life. I've always been told my scrawl was an unreadable mess. My best friend teased me about it mercilessly, but only because we wrote stories together and her handwriting was neat and tidy.

So thanks a bunch internet stranger! :3:

I rarely write something but if I do its grocery lists, and if I do 9 times out of 10 I write them like this.



My degree is in linguistics, mainly old stuff and I got a history degree as well. I am from Sweden so I guess it makes a little sense. (A little) These are the modern runes that most modern runecarvers would use, slightly modified for modern use. No point in using the older Futharks. Not much of a handwriting I am sorry, but atleast its a little different from the standard letters used in this thread :)

That is awesome Mgant.

I haven't written anything in manuscript for months. I either type my notes, or I listen carefully and download the lecture slides. I only sign with my initials, even, and those are already getting to doctor-like levels.



I have, however, just started learning calligraphy (a week ago today, actually! :toot: ). That's a little more attractive, I think.



fake edit: Oh no you can see the hyrule historia in the first picture. Oh well.

I wish I had pretty handwriting :( Handwriting thread, teach me how to write less like a child.

e: The only reason it's even this good is because I refuse to type my notes, handwriting them forces me to comprehend them with less time spent consciously studying. Efficiency!

the trick is to use lots of fancy loops

Loops and flourishes look nice, but actually hurt legibility. Don't apply them to every letter, but perhaps only to the capitals.

Ugh, I remember I was so happy with that when I finished it... now it looks like poo poo. :(

That's about 70x70 cm, I used a 2.3mm Pilot Art Pen for the "small" text, and a pair of 5mm and 11mm dip nibs for the other two sizes. The art pen behaved not really well as you can see quite a bit of colour variation other than the ink's -Diamine Syrah- natural shading.
