Copperplate & Shadow Pen Set Review

I purchased two of these items and as an individual who is a fan of Spencerian and Copperplate; this item offers an inexpensive introduction to the art.
Combined with YouTube's ability to feature artists in Spencerian Script or Copperplate Script; you can take your pen and dip, write and learn the tricks of the trade per se.
Be it with regular Fountain Pen ink--my favorite is Sheaffer's and Waterman brands; or with more thicker ink offered by Speedball, which is designed for dip pens -- One can practice the letters on old envelopes, scrap paper and such; before writing on expensive tablets.
With writing with flexible nibs; the art is really in the finger pressure you apply to the pen holder. Like a roller coaster--the gentle no pressure grip and then press down some; makes the two edges of the pen to separate, which gives you those thicker lines. Light touch--they give those really spider web thin lines; as to connect, flourish and apply a bit of flare to your normal written handwriting. With flex nibs; I highly recommend writing slower as the ink must feed from the little open hole (well) down to the nib. Gravity feed.
I highly recommend this product due to the many nib choices you have to work with. The finer the nib, the more elegant the letters.
