What Color Are Your Fingers Today?

[kmshrader]

J. Herbin Vert Empire. Had to pull the nib on my dip pen to clean it; now I've got to clean my fingers, as well. Still, it's a bit of a badge of honor, for a writer.

My right hand is currently covered in Noodler's Air Corps Blue-Black....due to a brief moment of clumsiness!!! I managed to clean my mother-in-law's table before she noticed the mess!:embarrassed_smile:

After creating a mess in the kitchen, my hands (not fingers...hands) are Skrip Red and Waterman Purple. And a combination of the two.

Private Reserve Tropical Blue - while filling my Ocean Breeze

Noodler's Burgundy. I washed my hands but still had a stain. Then I ate some string cheese. I noticed a pink mark on it, and for a split second I thought that there was something wrong with the cheese. :ltcapd:

noodler's apache sunset

just tried my sample with a dip pen. this one will look beautiful in my copper Esterbrook!

[inkspot]

Diamine Blue Black - I was attempting to insert a cart into a poor-quality pen when the sections slipped spraying ink all over me, my desk, my clothes, my computer, my work... Lovely colour, though I think I'd prefer it on paper

I was filling my Lamy Nexx M with Noodler's Polar Blue this morning...I sort of "bumped" the bottle then caught it before it fell (I think I was still sleepy, I had'nt finished my first cup of ceffee yet!)...as a result, some of the ink flew out and landed on my hand. Nice way to start the day.

Kon Peki...love the color!

[professionaldilettante]

Dark, DARK brown. All of my hands on all surfaces are brown. Why? I decided to make black walnut ink, but forgot that the fruits stain like crazy. By the time I finished hulling my first nut, where ever the juice ran off to, was beginning to oxidize.

Imperial blue....how regal.

After being so careful and not spilling any ink or staining my hands, my converter decided to have a dumb momnet (caused by the operator) and spilled bad blue heron down my fingers. Wonderful.

[meowmda]

Noodler's Midnight Blue. Just a smudge. I am pretty careful. I don't know why I always end up with ink on me. But it's a badge of pride for my pen lifestyle, I guess! :roflmho:

[inkspot]

PR Plum and Iro Yama Budo. Love those inks!

[PozzSka]

Until I washed them this morning, my fingers were a combo of the following inks:

 

J.Herbin Rouge Hematite 1670

Noodler's Badger & Blade 5 O'Clock Shadow

PR DC Super Violet

 

Now they are clean, until I do something else of course.

After a Criminal Investigation Specialization test, today my fingers are Noodler's V-Mail Midway Blues!!

:hmm1:

[radellaf]

Iroshi Asa-gao, which is tough to get out from under a thumbnail. I just couldn't let my pilot 74 with a scratchy F nib wait, and it was a little messy on the thumb from using the nail to spread the tines a bit so I could sneak a very fine mylar disc in there and smooth out the inner edges. It worked, and the ink is pretty, even on a thumb.

[LuckyDog10]

After being respectably clean and mainstream for several days, I had a bit of a mishap with my TWSBI and now the Diamine Midnight it contained has caused a stain on my thumb that is in the shape of a perfect capital P. :blink: The blob on my index finger looks like...well, just a blob on my index finger.

[rbadger332]

I know it's not today, but it was yesterday. I was cleaning my Finace's Cross Adventura, and afterwards filling the converter directly from my bottle of HoD. Well, my fingers decided to ignore my brain, and I dropped the entire converter into the bottle. I had to dump the bottle out into another container to get the converter. Both hands stained completely black. But I got the conveter out and it was filled with more ink that I could've hoped!

[majorworks]

I had inadvertently left a Preppy, filled as an eyedropper with Baystate Blue, nib-down in a cup on my desk. I wasn't thinking clearly when I uncapped it. You can guess the rest.
