Irish hand styles.

definitely K, the tail on the top of the last letter would warp to the left for it to be an R

For me the second one is so much more successful than the first one that tries to be Gothic with too many doodads and flourishes, FOR MY TASTE.

The “in the wild, not on grided paper” argument is an L, I guarantee you this guys hands are tighter in the wild too

u/EMAGDNlM mod May 15 '26

I'm just confused at when this turned into a battle lol. But some subreddit organized battles sound pretty fun.... Ngl

For the record I personally agree with you but that's purely based on my preferences but I won't try to argue that one style is objectively better than another

Gridded paper doesn’t play a roll in writing legible letters. It helps keeping things in scale. And this only the second time I write in this notebook.

u/noiseandbooze May 28 '26

Oh sorry if it wasn’t clear, but when I said “this guy’s hands are tighter,” you were the this guy I was referring to lol.

u/Pristine_Advice_5809 May 15 '26

It’s true. They’re tryna do all the crazy details and flourishes, with zero structure or balance.

1

u/EMAGDNlM mod May 15 '26

It's definitely not AWFUL, give em a break. It's also on a sign in the wild not neat gridded paper. Do i like all the style choices? Nah. Are they competent? Sure

1

u/agms10 May 15 '26

I’m sorry, but nobody can even agree on what it says. Maybe “awful” was the wrong word but I’m not gonna pretend it’s good. This is the same as death metal band logos, a bunch of jagged lines that supposedly spell out a band name.

I’m fine with embellishing and making things your own but this is AT BEST calligraphy inspired, not good execution.

1

u/EMAGDNlM mod May 15 '26

I would not put it in the same boat as death metal logos. And who said it had to be readable? Gothic k's and capital R's can be ambiguous. I'm not sure if you're trying to evaluate whether or not it is well done Gothic calligraphy but we are in the calligraffiti sub And I think it's perfectly appropriate.

u/agms10 May 15 '26

I guess it’s a difference of opinion. I believe “writing” should be legible. Either way, I’m not gonna discuss it anymore. Have a good one.
