learn calligraphy alphabet
okay, i put this under freehand for indieart, but it's not really. this is a new calligraphy font i'm putting together called "bustardo". it's largely based on the batarde font (popular in 13-15th century france). there are some variations between the alphabets shown. please let me know which letters you like and dislike!
i like the third style all except the z. i liked the z from the first alphabet, but really this is a cool hand. i'd like to practice with it because it looks so fun. very inspiring
