Does someone know how to make a modern arabic calliphraphy written "Anqa Studio"
Since the category of "freestyle" Arabic calligraphy apparently exists, are there any contests/competitions in it (or any other means of recognizing whether or not someone does "good work," if it is not in any known style)?
What are the best pens and ink to write a Mushaf in naskh? Also, what books or paper (if i could bind it myself) could I buy thats large enough for a Mushaf and strong enough for fountain pens?
I used a combination of the software CalliPro for the calligraphy and Infinite Painter for designing the background
Would this be the right subreddit to post proposals to modify the existing Arabic script (e.g., the proposals of Nasri Khattar or Saad Abulhab) or even change it altogether (e.g., proposals to "revive" the South Arabian Musnad script), so long as the post included artwork in the proposed script?
got my hands on some fun ink colors!
I'm asking because I have seen conflicting reports as to what an ijazah is and whether or not one even needs this qualification. As well, I have been reluctant to approach any calligraphers (as far as learning particular scripts from them) because I don't want to "burn bridges before crossing them" by seeming "disrespectful."
My work from 2023
So I'm neither Arabic neither Muslim but I really love the Arabic calligraphy it's so beautiful, so I try best to do something beautiful, it's the name of Jesus as used by the Christian Arabs so it would be يسوع I would really love some thoughts on that and if it's accurate, thanks to all

I ordered some sample papers of https://paperworks.com/store/products/futura-gloss-80lb120g-text-8-12x11-500pkg thought this would be good enough for calligraphy with bamboo pens. but need expert opinion of you guys if this looks correct? considering the description of the paper I attached, what should I look for as an alternative if this paper is not good. thanks!

آخر أعمالي في الخط العربي 😁
How soft of a surface should I put my paper on? I'm currently using a mousepad which is slightly too soft for me I think. What's the standard that people use?
