senzen Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Matching inks in some smaller pens. I especially like C D'A Amazon in my 1980s retro Kaweco 'Soap Green' Skyline Sport, with its soft Perkeo-like nib. Apologies for wonky photo.......... April pens 1.jpg Wow, spot on!

lgsoltek Posted April 22, 2018 Author Share Posted April 22, 2018 I particularly like your Blue Velvet match. The shading matches perfectly the blue swirls on the pen. Great choice! All my inks, with ink splash and links to my reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torrilin Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 I think 4001 is the darker blue in this? If so, I like. And the combination overall is very nice. Not too bright and full of shading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

inkstainedruth Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Well, this is a bit late because I didn't get the photos taken until earlier this week, and then didn't get them downloaded from my phone to my laptop until this afternoon. Paper in all cases is EcoQua A5 85 gr/m2 dot grid Bioprima Paper.Of course I just noticed now that I've misspelled Coord-ink-ation every time....

Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth You got the first one right, LOL. I once wanted a blue striped M405/605/805 very much, but somehow the desire went away. Money saved!

inkstainedruth Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 I think the striated blue is my favorite color of the Söuveran series. I could have save a little money and gotten an M400 instead, but there was just something about the rhodium plating setting off the trim -- even more than the plain gold trim did, for that color barrel. Of course my first Pelikan was an older M400 Brown Tortoise and the rhodium would have looked weird. And if I ever have the money for a striated Red one, I would probably also get an M400 (did they ever do the Red as an M405?). Hmmm. This one is an EF, the Brown Tortoise is a very juicy and springy F, and my M405 Stresemann is a B. So I guess I should maybe think about getting a striated Red with an M nib. Unless I decide to have the nib on the on the Stresemann reground... maybe something like a cursive italic. Then I'd have to get a red one with a B nib, wouldn't I?

amberleadavis Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Looking great! 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...
crahptacular Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 It's been overcast and rainy lately, so the photo is not very well-lit, but you can still see a bit of sheen in the ink and shimmer in the pen (I think the camera app cheated and added some contrast and saturation, too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noihvo Posted June 10, 2018 Share Posted June 10, 2018 Even the sheen on the Midnight ink matches the pen. Smart match! "We are one." – G'Kar, The Declaration of Principles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
