Violette Pensee is one of my favorite inks! It dries quickly, too and for me (impatient) that's a good thing!

I like that green colour. Does it need a really wet pen to come out that dark?

Jumping on the J. Herbin bandwagon, this is their Cacao du Bresil.

This ink is very dependant on pen and paper to achieve its beguiling colour . . . and quite difficult to capture it on camera.

It's not normally this "brown" but the Cass Art Watercolour paper makes it so.

Wow. In my next life, I want to be able to draw like you! (It's clearly not happening in this one. ;) )

Don't be silly. It's lines on paper, practice, and not being afraid to fail.

You guys have all given me the space and confidence to post my sketches. Never a bad word said. I feel I can show anything I sketch without feeling "unworthy" or "not good enough"

FPN is just such a lovely place to be. Thank you all so much. :) :wub:

Tas, I'm amazed at how good this drawing is.

Also amazed when you said what the ink was -- on my screen it looks more grey (although a warm grey) than brown.

      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
