  1. Based on suggestions by FPN members who like to use their pens & ink to draw but find they lack motivation, I am starting this thread to encourage sketching. There are no hard and fast rules on how much time participants should spend on their work, nor how skilled the sketchers must be. This is about setting a personal goal to take time every week and draw an object. The benefit is to the individual as they hone their skills one line at a time and take pleasure in the act of creating. 1. Each theme will run Sunday - Saturday. 2. Themes will be posted on the first Sunday of each Month, for the entire month. 3. You may post your sketch at any time you wish during that week. 4. Each theme will be numbered. Please include that with your post. 5. Do not post a drawing prior to the date set for the theme. 6. If you are unable to post the week of the theme but still wish to do so later, you are free to post the image. 7. You may participate in as many or as few themes as you wish. 8. Include the materials (pen, ink, paper, etc.) you used for the sketch. Thoughts on the process are encouraged if you are willing, as we can learn from each other. 9. If you have any suggestions for themes, please email me. 10. Have fun!
  2. Boy gosh, I sure would like a rich royal blue celluloid or acrylic pen with bold crimson red veins. It would be my designated royal blue pen, and I'd put royal blue ink in it, and it would dry to show rich blue coloring and have a crimson sheen. Yes, I would really like a pen like that. Its color name would just be Royal Blue. I'd love a Noodler's Konrad with that color. In fact, I'd love several of them. (The Royal blue Lamy Safari's blue was not a rich ultramarine. It was just sky blue. Not good enough) But as for colors I'm very glad exist, I'm super happy that The Zuni Ahab is like jeans, with ink stains and gold threading. I pair it up with Diamine Denim, and it was always meant to be. The pink tiger is interesting. I initially got it just because it was on sale, and fortunately I got one with a really good nib. It reminds me of a strawberry desert dessert, with the strawberries and whipped cream, but the black part is like licorice, and I don't think licorice would go well with strawberries and cream (but IDK, I never tried that combo). I would recommend the black part be switched to brown, because chocolate syrup would be more fitting on strawberries and cream, and it wouldn't have such a harsh look to it. And also the black clip on the gray Safari is too harsh against the matte 20% gray. But the black clip looks excellent on the charcoal Safari. And the two of them do make a good pair. What if I switched the black clip on the Gray to a chrome clip? Maybe I should try that sometime. so you can go ahead and blah about what pen colors you'd like, do like, or think could stand to be different.
