Manuscript MC146 Masterclass Calligraphy Set

I disliked this for one thing. There was no Directions on how to use it. And it's still not being use.

The instruction manual included with this really does not offer a step by step plan to get better at writing, but is more an overview of common styles with some opportunities to practice. There are many resources on the internet, as well as other books on Amazon that are very good at teaching the basics. I was pleasantly surprised by the number of ink cartridges, the choice in nibs (writing tips) and the quality and flow of the ink for the price. This is a great set of pens for someone who is just starting out and trying to decide if calligraphy is for them. They are of a high enough quality that they give a good idea of the skill required to write well, but are not too expensive as to be a loss if you decide that calligraphy is not for you.

The pens great, but like many other calligraphy pens, they can have a bit of a learning curve. To people who have issues with the ink not coming out I recommend putting it in the slot and closing the pen then put it between both hands and roll it like you're making a stick fire for a minute or so. Afterwards take the top off and start to press down on the paper, preferably thick or isolated paper so it doesn't bleed through. Have a paper towel or a wipe to remove excess ink that may coat the pen.

This was a reasonably priced calligraphy set and I bought it for my daughter to see if she likes calligraphy. It came and looked really good in the box. There were no instructions on how to use the pens and when the ink cartridges were inserted into the pens they would not feed. No ink came out! It may have been the fault of the ink but nothing worked to get the ink flowing.

There are instructions for the lettering, but no instructions how to work the pens. I checked to make sure I had the ink holder in the right direction, and it doesn't work. I tried squeezing the ink cartridge, and all I got was ink on my pants. One pen works sometimes, the other one hasn't worked at all

This used to be my favorite brand from calligraphy but I will be purchasing it again. All of the ink pods were dried out and could not be used.

For the price of the set, you get the value of it. It's a good starter set. If you're a experienced in this area, then you will not like these pens. But they are still decently made, come with a practice pad of paper, an instruction pamphlet, two pens, nibs, and cartridges. I am gifting this to someone who expressed interest in it, and hope they enjoy writing! I have another beginner set from this brand and I think the same of that one too- good starter set for the price of the set.

Bought this for my niece. I used to do calligraphy as a girl and I was happy to buy this set for her when she showed interest in calligraphy too. It came in the box that is advertised, with plenty of ink colors, and fountain pens. The best part, in my opinion, is that it has a book of styles of calligraphy. This serves as a great model for her to practice in the different fonts.

Esta marca de plumas es excelente para principiantes y por qué no, para quienes ya tienen experiencia en caligráficas. Su diseño es cómodo, aunque en lo particular me resultan un poco ligeras, yo uso continuamente el punto mediano para hacer todas mis recetas médicas y el punto más fino en mis notas y apuntes. El precio es excepcionalmente bueno para la calidad y especialmente en México, donde no se encuentran fácilmente y su costo es casi del triple. Me las entregaron bien empacadas, unos días antes de lo esperado. En resumen, estoy muy satisfecho de esta compra, del servicio de Amazon y recomiendo ampliamente este producto.

Oke

Arrivato assolutamente nei tempi. Confezione integra e penne perfettamente funzionanti! Utilissimo per scrivere con calligrafia particolare su inviti o altro. Consiglio l'acquisto di questo prodotto anche se manca una scatolina per riporre il tutto una volta aperta la confezione.

Nach dem Besuch eines Kalligrafiekurses, bei dem die Arbeitsmaterialien vorhanden waren, beabsichtigte ich die Übungen zu Hause fortzusetzen und bei Grußkarten, schriftlich übermittelten Glückwünschen oder ähnlichen Gelegenheiten die Fertigkeiten einzusetzen. Dabei war die Frage nach dem richtigen Werkzeug schnell beantwortet. Für eine gelegentliche Benutzung wollte ich nicht zu viel Geld ausgeben. Daher der Test mit diesem Set. Wer billig kauft, kauft zwei mal, heißt es. Hier stimmte es mal nicht. Die Federn schreiben alle, Die beigelegten Patronen gaben zwanglos ihre Farbe ab. Inzwischen habe ich Tuschen in verschiedenen Farben nachgekauft. Das Set benutze ich damit immer noch, nach nunmehr 5 Jahren. Es zeigten sich keine Mängel in den gestalteten Schreiben. Über die Jahre ist nun auch jedes Teil ausprobiert worden und alles funktionierte einwandfrei. Ob es nun Glück ist oder Unglück anderer Käufer weiß ich nicht. Ich habe mir trotz wiederholtem Einsatz bis heute noch kein neues Set gekauft, da es immer noch seinen Dienst tut. Allerdings erweitert wurden die Federn mit anderen Modellen schon, um noch kreativer arbeiten zu können. Dabei gab es auch keine merkbaren Qualitätsunterschiede zwischen dem günstigen Set und den durchaus mal teureren Einzelteilen. Da es aus meiner Sicht nichts zu bemängeln gibt, kann ich hier nur volle Sternzahl geben.

Product is exactly what I wanted, it has several size pen nibs, lots of ink cartridges and also an instruction guide. I am looking forward to doing lots of practice with the set. The prompt delivery was very good also, received in a couple of days.
