In this clip we will be learning how to do M through R of the Magiskil Calligraphy Italic Hand. With this one you are going to begin at the cap line and you are going to create the letter M which is a pretty good sized letter and be sure to finish off the serif. The N is the same beginning and you come up to the ascender line or just before it. The letter O is exactly the same as a minuscule, but it is larger and goes up to the cap line. When you are doing the letter O you want to always be sure to overlap back where you were to complete the letter. P, again you come back and around holding a forty-five degree angle. The Q is just an O and you can finish it in a variety of ways. R, back over here again and you finish it. And I always like to be sure I come up on the edge of the Neb when you come down you just kind of lift your hand just a little bit to come up on that edge and then be sure to always finish the letters.
