Aurora Black. With the range of colours I have, I never would have thought I would actively decide to fill up a pen with black ink. However, Aurora Black performs flawlessly and is the blackest ink, I own.

Great job ...

oh, wait is that because you only inked one pen?

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Mine are black (kinda grey-ish), but mostly on my arm.

Today, mine are Parker Quink black and Diamine Chocolate Brown. I was using a syringe to refill a converter and it..... blurped and shot ink all over my fingers!

Toucan Sienna.....I transferred every drop out of the pouch into an empty Diamine bottle I had without nary a problem and then bumped it with the lid and sloshed about 1/4 of the bottle into the sink and all over my hands.

This morning they're a semi-faded black, I was inking my Parker Challenger last night using Noodler's Bad Black Moccasin. It laughs at Lava soap. There's a spot of Noodler's Bad Belted Kingfisher on one knuckle; it laughs at Lava also.

Today (so far) it's diluted Kung Te Cheng, because the Noodler's Konrad it's in decided to misbehave when I was trying to write my morning journal pages. Looks as if it's time to give the pen a thorough cleaning -- including disassembling the cap.

Then there's some straw red on a couple of fingers. I'm not at ALL sure where that came from -- I didn't use any red ink yesterday.... :huh:

Diamine Red Dragon. I have it in my Pilot Metropolitan F, and I can't figure out where it came from, since that pen has never leaked on me*. Maybe it rubbed off from the paper, since it's primarily on the outer side of my hand, rather than on my writin' fingers.

 

*It did, however, leak on a colleague that tried to borrow it! She gave it back and used a pencil.

Black, as usual.

Should really buy more colors.

      Thanks for the info (I only used B&W film and learned to process that).   Boy -- the stuff I learn here!  Just continually astounded at the depth and breadth of knowledge in this community! Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      >Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film. It is a specific film that produces transparencies, or slides, by a process not used for any other film. There are other color trans

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
