Diamine Salamander - this is going in my Noodler's Nib Creaper

 

Diamine Poppy Red - this is going in my TWSBI Diamond Mini 1.1 stub

 

Cult Pens Deep Dark Orange - this is going in my Cross Apogee

 

Kaweco Turquoise cartridges - this is going in my Skyline Sport

 

Platinum Green cartridges - this is a last-gasp attempt to make my Plaisir interesting

 

Pretty excited!

That sounds very inky! Have fun!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

I will soon be waiting for my samples - about 7 different greys and the full line of Rohrer & Klingner ink.

 

I might buy a bottle of Noodler's Navajo Turquoise too, but debating if I should try a few more turquoise inks first.

I'm eyeing Navajo Turquoise or Turquoise Eel too, but I'm gonna try out my new Diamine Mediterranean Blue first.

Waiting with equal parts excitement and apprehension for a bottle of Baystate Blue.

Currently in rotation: Wing Sung 698/Diamine Blue Velvet, Wing Sung 618/Diamine Golden Oasis, Lamy Profil 80/Pelikan Edelstein Aventurine

Ordered on the 5th, they are at the local Post Office today. I hope they'll be delivered tomorrow, the 12th. I am most excited about the purples, the oranges, and the brown. :D

Salamander - as good as I expected

Poppy Red - better than expected. It is very red indeed, with just a hint of shading.

DDO - some sort of review coming soon; this might be the best ink I've ever used.

Kaweco Turquoise - wow! Really good fun. I'm not sure when they'll really be used in anger, but it's bright and smooth and exciting.

Platinum Green - rhymes with 'clucking bit'. I think I might be about to give up on a pen and an ink...

The orange is amazing, see above. I now want the rest.

My first bottle of De Atramentis Indigo Blue and my second of new-formula Omas Blue.

I love the smell of fountain pen ink in the morning.
