@Sue W You are almost there Sue. Only a couple of minor adjustments and you will have mastered this group of letters.
- The compound curve does turn too soon compared to the other letters. This is most noticeable in the 'n' in the first 'one'. This is quite common. I do it too if I am not careful. Just make sure you include the tiny width of the guideline within your stroke and you will have uniform strokes.
- The slant is straying a little in places. Notice the 't' and the 'l' in 'talon' are going in slightly different directions.
- The shade of the round strokes starts a bit too soon. The heaviest part should be above mid x-height but only just. Start the stroke with a hairline and build up the shade quickly by about 1/3 of the way from the waist line - your shade starts pretty much at the waist line.
You will notice now that the adjustments are becoming more of 'refinements' to the structure you have developed. My main goal in having you work on these is so you can start seeing these kinds of things in your own and others' script. This study is a critical part of learning a script.
