This, because it's how i remembered it being drawn in Donald Duck in Mathmagic Land

You start with a straight line. It literally makes the most sense cause it decides the size of the star as well.

I like this method because it let's me angle the star however I want

This is the correct order. 5-to-2 sets the width of the star, which is important when writing multiple identical stars next to each other.

Yes. I can only imagine Light Yagami doing 52413 in the Death Note

I was sad that I didn't learn that until high school. Never drew a star any other way after that. The young woman who taught me I can't remember, but the star.... I'll always remember haha

This is the only way. What kind of troglodyte starts on an upstroke?

Had to scroll too far to find this

I think this is the left-handed way.

I've never really thought about it that hard, but I have noticed that a lot of times I have trouble getting the star to fit the spot I intended and it winds up being squished and/or lopsided. I've always used 13524, but 52413 makes a lot of sense for solving that issue.

Yeah FR that bro who went 54 did not draw a fucking star.

I scrolled too far to see this.... I didn't know people were doing stars so differently.

Same! It seems the obvious way to do it – starting with the one horizontal line.

I think this or the lefty version would produce the neatest stars.

I do the same, although I am a righty.

Finally my people.

No idea how or when I started doing it this way, but I can't change now!

I had to scroll waaaay to far to find this. Are we rare??

Do you write left-handed? I do, and this is my sequence too.

This is the way

I wasn’t aware there was any other way. I’m having an identity crisis over here.

same

Hello my star sibling

Left handed?

100% this

Everyone else is heretics

You start at the top of the pentagram, because that's Spirit. You hit the other elements and end at Spirit.

thanks sane person

The correct way

135241 is the natural order ofc

13542 in the original doesn't even make a star

Because it is and all these others are heresy.

I think we are in a teeny tiny minority.

You should probably see a doctor

I do E134524E

was taught this way because it still looks neat even when you don't line up your starting and ending point

I mean they're really hard to draw perfectly

I am also crazy and most of my stars end up inverted.

I'm with you.

Im a lefty, and this is how I draw them.
