Recommended Posts

Spring/Autumn is coming! Use a colour that represents spring/autumn for you. Thanks to LizEF for the title.

As usual, don't forget to share with us your choice of ink, your writing, drawing, doodling or anything with the ink in this thread. You can take a photo, make a scan, or even better, write letters and CRV reviews (what is a CRV?) and mail them to the many ink pals here. You are welcome to check back on this thread even when we've gone past this week.

Click here to read more about this community project. Links to the two previous links can be found there too.

Drat! Now I'm going to have to figure out an ink and a pen... Must run one dry ASAP!

Struggled with this one. Not many "spring" type inks in my collection :unsure: but the forget me nots will soon be out and I like forget me nots . . . :)

Ink: Noodler's La Couleur Royale ( which I know is nothing like the real La Couleur Royale ) & R&K Helianthus

Paper: Cass Art 300gsm Watercolour

Pen: Pilot Custom 91 (the bluey coloured one) with a Visconti B nib ground to an F (don't ask)

Mine's not a very original choice:

I adore your "full page of ink" shots.

As always a tad late, but here are my choices of ink for Spring: Rohrer & Klingner Smaragd Grün and Platinum Mix-Free Cyclamen 💚🌸

I've been wanting to try the Platinum Cyclamen!

I only have a sample, but am thoroughly enjoying it! Bought a few samples of the mixable platinum inks to play with but am liking them more than expected. :)

My choice for spring! It's a bit too dark in the picture, because I didn't realise that the pen was running low on ink and was wetter due to that fact.

 

(moreover, this pen hates Rhodia)

      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

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @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
