  1. Little fun challenge!
    First attempt at writing the biáng character, which is a type of noodle in Shaanxi cuisine. Deemed the most complex "genuine" Chinese character with its 58 strokes. Full of flaws but not too bad for a first I guess.
    Next challenge: an "artistic" character made of 172 strokes. Wish me luck!
