 | You will want to use a soft lead pencil and eraser before trying any
lettering in permanent ink (at least when you're first beginning.) |
 | Lightly draw a line using a ruler to help keep your lettering even. |
 | Decide beforehand what type of basic alphabet you will be using. |
 | When you are happy with the way your letters look in pencil, trace over
them with a permanent pen. |
 | Embellish letters by adding designs, themes, and/or color schemes. |
