The letters "G" and "Q" also built on the oval shape. So, we're going to start with
the letter "Q", which is of course an "O" with a tail; so there's the "O", and there's
the tail, it drops down a little bit below the baseline. So there are lots of different
options for "Q"; you can start the tail inside, you can keep the tail above the baseline;
(if I can squeeze out enough ink to do this, yes) so there's the "Q". Letter "G", a little
more demanding, the letter "G". So we're going to start with the oval shape, and the cap,
then we're going to go right to the center of the letter, and make a horizontal stroke,
and then we're going to pull that stroke down, so here we go; 1, 2, 3 and 4. And if you got
everything right, it's going to connect. But if it doesn't, it's alright, you can go back
and you can sort of touch up the letter a little bit; 1, 2, 3, 4, there you go, the
letter "G". Again, this will take some practicing, because we've got four strokes that we're
trying to get in perfect alignment, and keep our pen inked.
