Ulterior, dacă vrei chiar caligrafie, poți încerca cu un stilou parallel pen - de pe amazon sau ebay.

pilot parallel for anyone wondering

Plenty of people around here, including myself, love the Pilot Parallel pens. They come in 4 sizes. You can get several different color ink cartridges, or a converter and use whatever fountain pen ink you want.

I use the 2.4mm for most of my practice/work.

For a fountain pen, I would recommend (not really calligraphy, but they do look fancy compared to ballpoints)

  • Noodler's Nib Creaper: +Cheap. +Has some line variation. +Fun. +You can learn to tinker with the nib. -Not the best for new users to fountain pens (piston filler, you'l need to buy a bottle of ink too). -Not known to be the most consistent or most reliable. -Pretty low ink capacity. -Weird smell...


  • LAMY Safari or Pilot Metropolitan: +On the cheaper end. +Reliable. +New user friendly. +Comes with ink cartridges. +Probably 2 most popular beginner pens. -LAMY has a triangle grip, so if your grip isn't "standard," it could feel weird.


  • Jinhao (x750 or x450 are popular but they have a lot of other nice looking pens) +Fancy looking. +Really cheap. +Feels kinda expensive (heavy). +Comes with ink converter. -Bad quality control. -Need to buy a bottle of ink.


    For calligraphy, I would recommend


  • Shaeffer pen set I started with an old, old set of these and enjoyed them very much. But they could be a little bit inconsistent sometimes.


  • Pilot Parallel Pens. You don't need the whole set- I started with just the 2.4mm orange one and it is still my favorite.


  • Tombow Fudenosuke Brush Pen The line variation that these provide are pretty clear. I prefer the hard brush.


  • Speedball calligraphy sets are supposed to be good for beginners. I've never tried them before though.


  • Colonial Oblique Holder I started with this and a Nikko G nib. Bought some walnut ink crystals with it- lasts a while even for small quantity.



    Edit: Like shugpug said, It depends what script you are trying to practice.

Sure! Here’s the link. They also have a set of different tips.

This thread may help you. I recently bought the rOtring 2.3 and am not impressed. Skips a LOT. You may be happier with the Pilot Parallel, that looks like it will be my next pen.

Amazon

You could get nice paper and a bulb syringe for cleaning all under $50. :)

edited to add, don't forget ink! goulet is a nice resource.
