Could You Write Your Favorite Word In Calligraphy, Please?

Ein Herz bei Nacht

Es war einmal ein Herz

Ein Herz welches wehmütig klagte,

welches hoffnungsvoll wagte

und sich bei Nacht unlösbares fragte.

Ein Herz, welches zuvor vereint,

welches abendlich weint

und sich bei Nacht so fremd erscheint.

Ein Herz, welches sehnsüchtig schwelgt,

welches langsam verwelkt

und sich bei Nacht in Atem hält.

Ein Herz, einst wohnhaft in deiner Hand,

welche eines Nachts verschwand

und zurückließ,

was nie mehr zu sich fand.

- by Weltenasche.

Healing Rain

And I yearned to gather each tear's soft remain,

as if pouring them back;

was to spawn a healing rain, to ease the pain;

in eyes that saw through all the things I've done,

forever closed, when two souls began to feel like one.

You're good at calligraphy! May I ask what writing instruments do you use? Please and thank you. 🖋️😊

Thank you.

I had already answered most of this in a previous German reply, but I'm happy to answer it again in English since you asked me so politely.

Nib holder

I use different nib holders, depending on the font. Since I write a lot of broken fonts, I usually use a nib holder made of wood with a chrome grip.

The nib holder is called "Federhalter ARTIST" and I purchased it from the German online store of "feder-fuehrend": https://www.feder-fuehrend.de/products/federhalter-artist-mahagoni-inkl-schreibfeder

Nibs

For the nibs themselves, I use bandzug nibs. I recommend nibs with less elasticity in the beginning, as they are easier to handle, and as you become more confident, you can increase the elasticity.

A good starter set is "Brause & Co, No. 180": https://www.feder-fuehrend.de/products/bandzugfeder-no-180-brause

I currently use the following nibs frequently:

William Mitchell, Pedigree, Round-Hand, Bronze

C. Howard Hunt Pen Co, Speedball Pens, C-Series

Heintze & Blanckertz, No. 600

I purchased these from the German online store "Kallipos": https://shop.kallipos.de/de/produkte/bandzugfedern

Paper

When it comes to paper, I use various types of it; Again, depending on the font, type of work, and writing utensils used.

Practice paper For normal practice, I often use lined practice pads or white non-lined paper with a thickness of 100g/m².

Project paper For my projects I use a different sort of paper. It is important to pay attention to the sizing in order to prevent the ink from "bleeding". In addition to sizing, a matte surface is also important, as ideally the nib should not slip off. I vary the thickness of these types of paper depending on the intended use, but it usually amounts to 120g/m² or 200g/m².

Paper for special inks For special inks, such as the golden ink in some of my uploads, I use special black colored paper from Italy (Burano nero - Roman Tower) in the thickness 200g/m².

I don't really have a store for paper, which I use regularly. At this point, I would just google for the appropriate paper and thickness.

Inks

The inks I use also vary quite a bit. But for the most part I use inks from "Rohrer & Klingner": https://www.rohrer-klingner.de/en/writing-ink/

I especially like to use the iron gall ink "Salix" and "Scabiosa".

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me.

Das stille Wort auf meiner Zunge

der warme Klang in deinem Ohr

ungesprochen;

ruht in den Lungen

was einst in Liebe trat hervor.

Verlor mich doch so häufig

in der Röte deiner Wangen

geboren zarter Worte

gehüllt;

in Sehnsucht und Verlangen.

Doch schon lange schweigen sie

still, gefesselt;

Nacht um Nacht

leben nun in Fantasie

die nur noch im Traum erwacht.

by Weltenasche.

Where angels wade

Through lips like art, I found my thirst,

in tearful eyes, the pain immersed.

Your hair, once soft, began to fade,

may fears dissolve where angels wade.

No woman wants a disproportionate meathead muscle man. Maybe you should work on your brain for a change instead of just bluntly moving weights. But you do your thing, more women remain for the intelligent among us :)

You and the other guy should really coordinate your messages better. Am I a weak little soyboy or a disproportionate meathead muscle man?

By the way I heard thinking of oneself as overly intelligent, having an unhealthy obsession with a random guy's tumblr profile and drawing the only motivation to do something from what other people would think of it are supposed to be the characteristics of a true panty dropper.

Regen

Schon als Kind war ich fasziniert vom Regen.

Die kühlenden Tropfen auf meiner Haut;

die einzigartige Stille,

mir so vertraut;

der schwarze Teppich,

aus unzähligen Wolken gebaut;

endlose Stunden habe ich in den Himmel geschaut.

by Weltenasche.
