Thanks, Mr.Rene & jlh8114! I've been practicing to write with pressure on the downstrokes and no pressure on the upstrokes.

But where's the blue light example? I know those other guys have young eyes, but I sure don't!

Lovely Spencerian writing! What pen did you use?

Thank you Lloyd. I'm using my Diamond Point wet noodle.

 

Aslan, I haven't tried it on any other paper besides my Mead Composition book.

 

garyc, I'm not sure why they call it Blue Ghost.

 

Judybug, huh? :hmm1:

I'm like garyc - I just can't see it. That piece of paper looks naked - like the Emperor in "The Emperor's New Clothes." Well, no - actually I think the Emperor was in his underwear - OK - bad analogy - never mind. :rolleyes:

If you shine a blue light on the computer monitor, the writing shows up crystal clear. Stunning examplar, Pep. But then again, I'd expect nothing less from you!

So here's what happened
While you were nappin'
I just went out for a snack
I was feelin' famished
And then I vanished...
But now I'm back

But why do they call it Blue Ghost - presumably beause it has a blue tint - but I just can't see it....

It glows blue under black light. See the right-most bottle:

Apparently, Pep has found a way around the FPN potty mouth guidelines. Naughty thing, you.

Why, sometimes I'd like to take a switchblade and a peppermint and a Cadillac and throw it all in a fire.

Is that Blue Ghost or Whiteness of the Whale? My Blue Ghost is transparent and has a yellow tint to it.

Good catch! I'd moved them around and apparently forgot to put the Blue Ghost in the re-take.

 

Whiteness of the Whale on the left, Blue Ghost on the right. Sorry about the cruddy photo, but I'm tired.

 

Whitness is more to the violet end (this shows up best in the cap), where Ghost is more turquoise.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      By Misfit · Posted

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
