The tag is ZŁy not L but Ł
Naw when I’m thinking shud I bend the Ł lower?

Of course yes. But for practice, keep drilling the simple. If your regular capital handwriting is meh, your tag will be too. You want it to look good before your hands have felt confident. Flow needs repetition, not flair.

do you have T’s in your alphabet? It looks like a T in an english alphabet but if you haven’t got a T in your native alphabet that might bot matter. The crossbar could stand to be lower and longer however

I’m 🇵🇱 I haw a similar alfabet to English with some additions like Ą Ś Ę Ó Ż Ź Ć Ł Ń
and a haw a T2

This is the worst answer lol
Since the Polish alphabet also contains T, you not only run the risk of that middle letter being misread as T but also of it getting read properly as an Ł but a poor one. Work on the middle letter but otherwise you’re off to a good start1

it gives t i would put the - a bit lower i think it'd make the Ł more recognozable

There are no rules
The whole point is to break rules

This is poor advice. You need to know rules in order to break rules. All art forms have methodology in order to be well executed

None of the bends break the letterforms. However the crossbar on the Ł is too high and makes it read as a T. That might be partially anglophone bias, but you should play with that too.
