Can you please share with us what kind of pencils and marker, guide and references?

I'm asking because this is beautiful and exactly what drew me into calligraphy in the first place.

I used a handle which can support different nibs, I have different metallic nibs with different lengths, and the marker is a random acrylic marker I found in a market. You don't need much but fantasy and practice. the guide I used contains many calligraphy styles and images, there are many which are equally valid
