When that is done, use your pen to write the name in cursive-style writing. Make sure to leave a nice amount of space between the letters and keep any loops in your letters wider than usual.Next, you will thicken the downstrokes on your letters by creating duplicate strokes parallel to your original downstrokes. Downstrokes are when you write in a downwards direction on the page with your pen. Just trace over the letter again to make a note of the downstrokes in pencil.
