What Kind Of Nib Is This? Secret Santa Gift I Have No Clue How To Use.
Ikkoros posted a topic in Calligraphy Discussions
Hey all, I just received this awesome-looking calligraphy set from a secret santa! However, I've never seen any nibs like it, and trying them out I feel like I'm either using them wrong or they came in sort of 'off'? I compared the nibs I got to a review post someone made, and they look very different, even though everything else looks the same! https://miscellaneousmatter.wordpress.com/2016/02/06/daveliou-calligraphy-set/#jp-carousel-662 My nibs: Did my SS unknowingly purchase a counterfeit item, or am I simply ignorant in using the nibs? I read through the how-to guide the package came with, but it's nothing like the broad-edged calligraphy nibs I was expecting. The how-to includes gothic script, etc; all tutorials that look like the nibs can make perfect square edges, but I'm just confused right now. I'm used to the Pilot Parallel pens, and I know these are different, but I have no idea how to use these nibs :X. Thank you!
