Today it is Noodler's Midnight Blue and Pilot's Iroshizuku Kon-peki. I should really try some of that Ink Nix stuff.

Noodler's Shahs Rose I think. My toddler managed to sneak a bottle and open it, spilling it all over my (thankfully blanket covered) studio carpet. The label is soaked so not sure of the color.

 

They were Noodler's Navajo Turquoise earlier, so purple in places now too ;)

Noodler's Air Corps Blue Black and some Private Reserve American Blue. What a klutz I am . . .

Skrip blue. I find the large 1911 cc a bit loose, and not as firm as other pens. I won't use cartridges in this pen , because whilst the cartridges are an excellent product, their prices down under are that of Tortuga Pirates.

Diamine Chocolate Brown (and it really is the colour of hot chocolate, I like it!) and J. Herbin's Eclat de Saphir (just refilling my Kaweco Sport rollerball - couldn't be bothered to do much then refill the cartridge with its matching bottled ink).

I'm writing an online serial thing. It's urban fantasy. And I have no idea how long it's going to run for.

I'll bet the NAV is still hanging in there. Persistent stuff, and I love it as well.

 

As for me, it's Noodler's Green Marine today. Filled a dove gray P51 Vacumatic with it this morning and my left index finger is sporting a nice green smudge.

Nail Polish Remover is gentle on the skin and works a treat.

I thought that's what the bottom drawer was for! (all the things we don't want others to see...)

My bottom drawer is full of ink bottles! Quite literally. . . .

 

My fingers are currently sporting several smudges of Galileo Manuscript Brown. And I noticed I had a can of acetone in one of my workshop cabinets at home so, I poured some into a small glass jar and brought it to work with me this morning along with some cotton balls. Who knows what would happen if my wife's nail polish remover came up 'missing' . . .

Lamy Turquoise. And a little bit o' Scabiosa.

All I want is 1 more pen, and 1 more bottle of ink, and maybe 1 more pad of paper. Well, at least until tomorrow. Oh yeah, and throw in that bottle of single malt. Is that asking for too much?

 

thanks Chris.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
