Sailor 1911 Realo - Video

[Honeybadgers]

 

Was accidentally sent a medium nib by the vendor, who offered to replace it, but I instead asked if he just wanted to take the $50 in return shipping and the 10% discount he offered me on another one in fine, which is in the mail. The medium is probably going to be ground into a stub at some point, but in the meantime, might as well do a writing video.

 

Quote is from a rare 1874 physics textbook I picked up a couple months ago. I love how it combines the heavy theological influences of the 19th century with the quickly evolving scientific understanding of the natural world.

 

Ink is nemosine alpha centauri. Paper is random watercolor board.

Nice pen (I've got a PG Realo).

I like your handwriting, but your video gave me a crick in my neck as I read the text. :-)

Yeah I didn't realize how canted over the image was until I looked back at the footage (it's an annoying compromise trying to get as much of the page/nib in the frame with as little of my pasty white hands in shot as possible.) by then I was too tired and lazy to re-shoot.
