Great going so far! I don't have any orange and not even a brown or sepia (some "Fire Opal" is supposedly on its way to me though), so my submission for the week is the nearest-shot-which-is-actually-a-long-shot; Diamine Oxblood.

Below was done in little time and with even less technique, but hopefully shows the ink's behaviour in a variety of situations (fine nib, thick nib, brush and diluted on brush)

I have to say I chose it as just this; nearest-but-not-quite-there, but I discovered a great ink that I like and may use a lot more in the near future!

Wow.

 

I hope you don't mind. I've taken a screen shot of your tree for my "screensaver of lovely art" :wub:

I love it.

Oxblood works well as an autumn colour.EBGBs

Yes indeed many lovely colours this week. These weekly ink projects are very good at extending the ink wishlist!

So far I particularly like the KWZ Monarch ink, nice colour(s) and magnificent shading it seems!

 

Thank you Tas and Lgsoltek for your kind words. You made my day.

I was thinking the same thing about Monarch: really nice.

Does anyone know if it is still sold exclusively by Fontoplumo in Delft, Netherlands? Or available elsewhere?

I'm going with a stereotypical autumn colour: brownish orange:

Here's an attempt at drawing...

 

 

 

 

Wonderful colour!!! :)

 

 

 

 

My submission this week, Diamine's Golden Brown.

I did originally try a sketch with Iroshizuku Ina Ho but it came out waay too dark when splattered or brushed on. In fact, I think I actually prefer the colour of Golden Brown. It is a little dry but my old toothbrush didn't mind.

 

http://www.taskyprianou.com/fpn_week_38_diamine_golden_brown.jpeg

Ink: Diamine Golden Brown (toothbrush splatter), Quink Black Solv-X in my trusty Namiki Falcon - nib used upside down to create Silver Birch markings.

Paper: Cass Art Watercolour 300gsm. - note to self, line up the "grain" of the paper in future . . . .

 

 

 

 

 

I love this drawing!!! :wub:

.....and Krishna Autumn, a beautiful, soothing orange was sent by an Ink-abler. I'll need a bottle when I've finished the sample. Errr, a bottle of this ink, that is.
THANK YOU, Ink-Abler :)

WOW, I already was in awe seeing only part of this piece of art on another topic. Love to look at the full drawing.

I approve wholeheartedly. Krishna Autumn is a very nice ink —just right for the Equinox today!

Great fun today at Sakura InkArt workshop with Nick Stewart - learned some neat techniques for working wonders with ink. The pic below was done with Noodler's brown, and named by Nick himself. Fits well with the autumn theme.

      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
