So far it's been diluted KWZI IG Gummiberry, in a stainless steel Parker Vector (M nib), and Noodler's Kung Te Cheng in a Charlie eyedropper (flex nib).

I received an old shoe shaped bottle of Montblanc Turquoise & filled a Sheaffer Sterling Imperial, after reading about the pen in a current thread. I had two other pens filled with similar inks, (MB Unicef & Sheaffer Peacock Blue) & have enjoyed seeing the subtle differences between the three inks.

Notes and doodles.

 

Diamine Blue-Black,

Diamine 150th Dark Forest,

Diamine Macassar,

Cult Pens Deep Dark Purple

and a mix of Diamine Kelly Green with a few drops of RK Verdigris. It's more legible this way.

Inks for today will be:

 

  • Kyo-Iro Soft Snow of Ohara in a Peyton Street Pens prototype pen with a cursive italic nib
  • Sailor Shigure in a Sailor Pro Gear Slim with a broad nib
  • Montblanc Lavender Purple in a Sheaffer Viewpoint with a fine italic nib
  • Maybe Birmingham Fern Hollow Creek on a brush

In these pens, Soft Snow and Shigure look quite similar; a side-by-side comparison (on Tomoe River or Rhodia 80g) reveals that Shigure is purpler and Soft Snow has more of a matte finish.
