Copperplate Tutorial by SMK / Re: Copperplate Minuscules - Group 1
« on: April 11, 2017, 12:37:53 AM »@flummoxed - I mentioned the video for a demonstration of the pen lift at the bottom of the stroke.
You were drawing the shaded stroke correctly, the roundness came from the exit hairline going out a bit too far to the right. As for the tapering off at the end of the shaded stroke, move your pen slightly to the right as you release pressure, this will keep the right side of the shade straight while the left side will taper in a curve to meet at a point by the time you get to the baseline. The point you touch at the base line can be a little to the right of the right side of the shade - but only a little.
