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.

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

Mine's not a very original choice:

I adore your "full page of ink" shots.

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)

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
