Hi Prvt. Toter,

 

I´ve noticed that the predators (beside the frogfish) are really underrepresented in your underwater scene.

Let me fix this for you and give them a companion to "play" with.

Hello FPN'ers! Good to see that you are keeping the thread alive! I'll try to catch up what I've been missing lately, amongst other I can see that there's been some questions about the Falcon feed. I can post some photos of my pen later to show what I've done with it.

 

As I can see, the world is still full of beautiful pens and ink colours. I have got a new iroshizuku really nice blue ink (tsuki-yo), inked it up in my Pilot Custom falcon nib pen and wanted to show it to you. The pen wrote beautifully until the #%&"!!? feed got into it's mood again. I really don't understand why Pilot spend all that energy producing beautiful pens and nibs, and ignore the fact that the feeds on these pens suck!!!! I will not buy another Pilot pen until they start making proper feeds! Now I've turned my attention to Sailor pens. Well enough of my complaining. Here is a new brush pen, a Japanese masterpiece!

Ptero- as requested, Do-Do has entered

 

The pen was another recent "restoration" project. I debated using the nib out of this for my striped Duofold but decided to bring this back to life for either my desk at work or for strictly home use.

Pterodactylus,

 

If you seardh Amazon for "pen and ink sketch" you will find a line up of products. I have a local mom and pop supply store that had these... very low budget pen, but find I use it for work as it writes well on most papers (fine fine) and won't break the bank if I lose it.
