I learn from the book: Mastering Copperplate Calligraphy by Eleanor Winters. These guides are for learning from that book! If you haven’t got it, read my review here. All with 1/4 inch x-height perfect for first-timers, like me. I like to divide ascender and descenders practice to save paper, ink, and space. Read somewhere that the green colour is good for tired eyes – plus: the black ink stands out more. I use 100 GSM A4 paper. Do not scale when you print, use actual size. Enjoy!

A free option is the interactive Script in the Copperplate Style (Pointed Pen Calligraphy) by Dr. Joseph M. Vitolo on Apple Books, but you’d need different guidelines from this one.
