Week #42 / 15 Oct: Breast Cancer Awareness Month - 2017 Weekly Ink Project

That's beautiful! I love these colours.

I was wondering why there's two Yama-budo. Interesting how it turns out different at different concentration!

That's also what I discovered about my Robert Oster's Fire and Ice sample that's been sitting in a pen for a long time. Eventually the ink concentration increased enough that the color would come out darker and there was finally the sheen the ink was named for. Until this happened, I couldn't get the sheen to show up without a dip pen or without Tomoe River paper.

“I admit it, I'm surprised that fountain pens are a hobby. ... it's a bit like stumbling into a fork convention - when you've used a fork all your life.”

What a shame. People are missing out on an incredible pair of shoes.

This is my poor effort for "pink week" ;)

Glad you like it. Thank you :)

 

I must've tried 6 or seven sketches in that pink. Nothing worked for me :( so I went a little off piste. This project is the perfect excuse for that.

      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..
    • A Smug Dill
      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
