That is a Visconti NATO that I long since traded! I blacked in two of the stripes on the cap--they were green and white then the red one that is still there. The three stripes were supposed to be the italian flag--I think. It was never really right for me--it was my one and only Visconti. Really nice pen just never clicked with me.

 

 

 

 

I really should update pics of my collection--alot of those pens are gone!

Excellent drawings Steve. Your fish has a great aura. Do you rate Patrick Woodroffe (Hallelujah Anyway)?

I especially love the ink dots which you have used for that watery feel.

 

My pens sometimes splatter and drip--they are all gushers! I have learned to incorporate them into my art. My Edison Herald Grande I really made that feed like a vintage feed and it gives the best splatters of ink--I have gotten very good at having them go where I want them!

Steve,

 

Wow, wow and wow!!! And, Richard, should you see this, "Wow!!!"

 

Steve, I can only imagine how heavenly it is for you to now have your favourite pen as a go to drawing pen. Richard's talents + your talents = magical results.

 

Best of luck for the debut of your story boxes!

 

All the Best,

Gem

Awesome drawings, Steve!!

 

I'm looking to see what people are doing with their MB149s especially for sketching and drawing then ran across this thread. Did not know full flex mod. is a possible option. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the good works.

 

Respectfully,

 

Phuc Do

      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..

      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
