Waiting for 30ml bottles of Diamine Lavender and Diamine Soft Mint from Cult Pens. I was going to throw in a few J. Herbin inks also but I think I'll pay a visit to the Pen Corner in Dublin in a few days to pick some up IRL.

Just got Diamine Red Dragon today. Love it. It's a very usable color - and extremely fun.

 

I had a sample of Iroshizuku Fuyu-gaki (Persimmon). I find that's one I just have to have. Really soon.

 

And then there is no more room in my ink box. (A second ink box? a third?)

1 x Diamine

1 x Diamine

1 x Herbin Perle des Encres
- Color: Rouge Caroubier (22)

 

1 x Pelikan Edelstein

I think I have a problem with red ink since I already own a few. They are the only ones that keep getting my attention and flow so nicely in my pen.

A bottle of Diamine Damson.

 

Went a little overboard with the ink samples last week after falling in love with J. Herbin Poussiere de Lune, not realising I apparently had a sample of the old version, buying a bottle of the new version, and then scrambling to find a look-alike for the old PdL. I think I've found it with Damson, though I I might try my hand at ink mixing to get it a little lighter/duskier.

When did they change Poussière de Lune? What is the difference between the two versions?

Pelikan Blue-Black. Coming in from Japan and it'll be my first go with this one.

PELIKAN - Too many birds in the flock to count. My pen chest has proven to be a most fertile breeding ground.

Noodler's Rattler Red, an eel ink. I had a sample and it was a shock to find a red that I liked! Plus I need something that flows well for a dry writer.

For some reason I hadn't realised that Pelikan 4001 Blue-Black was so difficult to obtain in the US. I just took it for granted that it was a commonly stocked ink. as it is here in EU/UK.

i am cheap, so, i was on this xFountainpens site and saw the Chesterfield Mahogany color and liked it, More like; hum! l liked this price, even though it was a smaller quantity than usual. it happens it is a manageable size, enough to test it and if you like it, continue using it. chesterfield? Never heard of it!!! Has never been mentioned here i guess, but who knows am a newbie. Well, it arrived today and also, the cartridges of Candy Apple Red. I am putting them side by side to Noodler's Tiananmen which is a recent buy also. Now I have a small assortment of colors on the reddish-brown and red side, my first experience outside blues and blacks, which i am enjoying! They are not in the mail, they arrived TODAY. By the way--- also ordered a knox F nib and they sent me a Nemosine Medium. I am waiting to see how they will solve this.
