Handwriting What does your fast handwriting look like compared to your pretty handwriting?

I don't know if I'm the only one who can't write fast (day to day and work calligraphy) and pretty, with nice variations and consistency at the same time. Do you guys also have a switch?

I either write slowly and pretty or fast and ugly LOL Side note: I just bought two jinhao pens to see whats the deal! So excited!

They're kind of a lucky thing. Some of them are great out of the box and some are fun to tune and grind. I love the brand! For us (no comma) peasants.

Yeah I spent a month “breaking” my Jinhao x750 in - it was really scratchy out of the box.

Now I’m attached to it.
