Torrilin Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Whoops, Kaweco Paradise Blue. Looks like it didn’t survive my artsy photo. (Mental note, doodle the name at both the top and bottom next time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribs Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Thanks I might have to look into getting a bottle of that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runnin_Ute Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 (edited) Not usually a "matchy matchy" person either. Bur right now, not counting demonstrators (and what doesn't look good in a clear demonstrator?) of which I have two inked. (TWSBI 580 B stub/Noodler's Apache Sunset & Eco 1.1 stub/KWZI Pine Green) Other than those, I have three inked currently with matching characteristics. (Pelikan M200 Brown Marbled M/KWZI Brown #4, Esterbrook transitional J 2464/Akkerman Shocking Blue, Platinum 3776 Century Borgogne B/Diamine Merlot) The last gets a pretty steady diet of Merlot. I think Brown #4 would be good in too. Almost a Doppelganger for Merlot. 20180404_202536 by Brad Merrill, on Flickr I'll be scanning impressions/reviews of KWZI Pine Green, Brown #4 and El Dorado shortly. They arrived yesterday and I have been using them. (Eco 1.1/M200 M/Al Star 1.1) and comparisons with Merlot and Apache Sunset.

Torrilin Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Thanks I might have to look into getting a bottle of that... I’ve got a package of cartridges. I don’t usually like to ink the same color twice in a row. But if I keep liking this ink it might well get a bottle. Maybe try it with an italic next...

amberleadavis Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Very nice. Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas). Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison Don't know where to start? Look at the Inky Topics O'day. Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalloweenHJB Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 (edited) I regularly match pens with inks. Here are a few: Funny —when I bought this pen many years ago, I thought that I must have been one of the few people who really liked the unusual color scheme (for Pelikan!). Who knew so many of us have one?! Edited April 7, 2018 by HalloweenHJB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissy Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 The Pelikan M400 white/tortie is obviously a popular pen. I recommend always check on Amazon.de for their price before you buy one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namrehsnoom Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Love the pens and their inks ... really nice photos this month. Personally I like to match pens and ink, so I show what I'm using at the moment. On the photo, I show you my grail pen ... a Pelikan M101N Tortoiseshell Red, that's always inked up with a red/brown/purple ink. In this case, it's inked up with Mont Blanc William Shakespeare Velvet Red. A nice combination... -- inkxplorations.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namrehsnoom Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 And here's another one that I'm currently using: the new Pelikan M120 Iconic Blue, inked up with Robert Oster Blue Water Ice. -- inkxplorations.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
