I finally bought a Lamy 2000 medium. I was never that huge fan of the Lamy Safari, but recently I found that a Safari with a medium nib, instead of a fine nib writes nicely. I got a good deal on a Lamy 2000 and took the plunge and now I get what all the fuss is about. The nib writes beautifully....

I just did a YouTube review of the fountain pen I probably use more than any other for drawing, the Duke 600 which is a very inexpensive pen. I got mine on Amazon a few years ago, and it does a great job of filling in areas. It works almost like a brush but it gives me more control. It isn't just th...
