northstar, stunning portrait!

 

Today I've used my Faber-Castell Loom extensively. This is an old picture, don't worry I've wiped off the excess ink.

Thank you SoulSamurai, yes that red is from the ink and is what is known as "Sheen", the Penman Sapphire is known for its beautiful red sheen.

Hello again SoulSamurai, this ink is on so many people's shopping list, but sadly its a discontinued ink and very rare, many (including myself) consider it the ultimate blue.

 

Here is a thread related to PPS

 

Best regards.

Discontinued? That's very unfortunate. Oh well, there's enough beautiful inks out there to keep me busy. Thanks for the info and the link.

Lovely pen . I have ordered some Calligraphy stuffs. That includes few Oblique holders and strait holders and few Cristal Glass pens. I have chosen the cheaper ones as I know nothing about Calligraphy pens. They are all ordered after my own research and the positive feedback from people who really use them. I like this pen and it looks a good quality pen how dose it write? Is this one set for only one nib or can be used on several nibs?

First, thank you :D

 

You don't need an expensive oblique holder to write well. As long as it fits your hand it would work perfectly. Many of them, you could adjust the flange (the part that holds the nibs) so it could adjust to your writing style.

 

My previous nib holder was too thick for me so I decided to get this one because it is thinner and also very pretty :)

 

This one was tuned to hold the Leonardt EF Principal, but I could accept other nibs, such as the Hunt 101 and anything similar in style.

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By asota · Posted

      ...random aside - I still have some 30 rolls of unused, long-expired Kodachrome 64 film (35mm). They have been frozen since 2009. No idea why I have held on to them for this long, but I guess I'm hoping for a miracle. I too have never developed colour film but I still d&p my B&W to this day. As a passion, of course.

      >Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film. It is a specific film that produces transparencies, or slides, by a process not used for any other film. There are other color trans

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.
