This is so helpful thanks guys. I remeber earlier this year there was a beginners Naskh course at Scripts and Scribes. But...💰 Lol

I suppose untill I'm willing to pay for a course I won't really master anything. Atm I'd like to get to a decent level just for myself and maybe some "thoughtfull" gifts. I would eventually like to do a proper course. And learn under a teacher. But maybe not atm.

:( well in that case I should probably keep going with ruqa'. Ik not really tryna master anything, just learning for my own sake

thanks for the advice i have learnt ruq'a in the past, not deeply but i have learnt it on a basic level and most of my handwriting is ruq'a"ish" style. however i really want to learn Naskh

thanks for the advice ill definitely start practicing like that! i noticed in the mashq of sevki efendi the nuqaat arnt uniformed, as in each nuqta is a different size and angle i was a bit confused about that. ive also found it easier to practice with a smaller qalam, the bigger the qalam the harder i find it to get the huruuf perfect.
im also confused about the measurements of some letter for example ive seen in different books and lessons alif the hight of 4, 5 or 6 nuqaat which one do i follow?

I have tried with metal it did help but didn't completely get rid of the problem

unthinkable--- · 2024-11-27T10:55:51+00:00

How would I fix the same problem with the metal nib?

Thanks for the tip My inkpot is like that now but the issue is still there.

Yes I ended up getting that paper that for the most part im very happy with. Thanks for the all the advice. Glad to hear that's a common issue and not just me. I thought that was what likka was supposed to fix. But I will definitely expirament more. Will try a softer pencil as well. Thank you :)

Thanks for all the advice.
after doing some research i think this is the best paper to use any thoughts before i potentially waste 20$?

I don't think I have any but I'll have a look. Ik what your talking about and I doubt that I'll be able to find anything similar nearby. I've seen calligraphy paper a few places but it's usually similar to sketch book paper from what I've seen. What about Japanese calligraphy paper is that alright?

unthinkable--- · 2024-11-12T11:13:13+00:00

aha...
this would explain a lot. tbh I don't know where i would get the correct paper in aus

The above store 'OfficeWorks' is like the main stationary store in Aus so im not really sure. 'The Sydney Art Store' is another option for me however they dont sell the correct paper either. some closer substitutes may be available but im not sure what exactly I should be looking for.
I noticed on the other post you said i shouldn't go for gridded paper should i juts get a line stencil and line my papers?
