Hello Arnaud,
Wow, it'll be a long time that has lapsed since someone commented on your technique.
I love it. That is a technique that I learned and use always. I just wanted to add a fine-tune that I realized from the time that I began using this technique.
I don't do scroll work, I do monograms. To begin my cipher, I start by painting initially with Chinese White. If I am not immediately happy with the design, I erase and paint the cipher again. This I repeat until I am happy with the size, placement, and shape of the letters. When I am pleased with the painted design, then I begin drawing over it with a pencil, and make corrections with the paintbrush.
