Anfractuous, highly flourished written in Casual Copperplate Style

Here's an example of how I write a single word with a lot of flourishes … as I tried a lot of different and new (for me) forms here, I made some pencil sketches first. The one I liked most I used as an exemplar, not to trace exactly, but more as a visual guide. Still the lines are shakier (but the forms more exact) than when I write without a sketch underneath the paper … A very fitting word for practicing flourishes, and one I had never heard of before! It was suggested as one 'Word of the Day' in http://theflourishforum.com – a place I highly recommend if you would like to know more about calligraphy, learn it or just meet other calligraphy nerds :). I used walnut ink, a Soennecken 96 nib and Boris layout paper from Borden & Riley. And yes, the sound is extra-scratchy which I like it in fact …
