I also ordered a bottle of SBRE Brown from La Couronne du Comte.

I have ordered 3 bottles of that ink and it wasn't in stock until last Friday.

Still 3 inks that are not in stock from my order.

Good thing that 4000 sheets of Tomoe River came in today, had been a while since I last received a big parcel. :)

From the fine folks at PenChalet, I have a bottle of Noodler's Blue-Black (mainly for addressing envelopes) and a bottle of J. Herbin 1670 Emerald of Chivor (along with a Lamy medium replacement nib, the better to enjoy it). Indeed, if the parcel tracking is to be believed, it should be waiting for me at home e'en now. (Goes back to staring at clock.)

I just bought a bottle of Apache Sunset from Goulet. Can't wait to ink up my TWSBI Eco with it!

Just ordered a bottle of Diamine Red Dragon. It will be my first red ink. This should keep me occupied until the shimmertastic inks launch.

Don't mind me, I like to ramble... A LOT

No longer waiting. Akkerman mixed up my 20-pen case with their ink #20, but that was just a bonus. Incredibly quick and polite service.

Just got my bottle of Noodlers Black and samples of J. Herbin Emerald de Chivor, Diamine Blue Velvet and Mediterranean blue.

 

I have so many sample vials now it was getting out of control and instead of writing last night, I made something to hold them out of a block of wood!

I ordered the Shimmertastics.

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

Ordered Sailor Oku-Yama and Sky High today. Will arrive on Monday.

 

Just received a sample of Oku-Yama yesterday and oh my goodness. Straight to the top of my "buy a bottle of this NOW" list. Such a gorgeous ink.

These look great! I can't tell from the front; which ones did you get? (Besides the 'lagniappe-ish' #20).

 

I have an order sitting in the cart, but haven't actually pulled the trigger yet. I was waffling between these and some Sailor inks, but between Vanness taking down the Bung Box/ Kobe pages from their site and wanting to see some more reviews first, I think I'll bide my time-- until the Sailor market calms down a little bit and I can get the colors I'm interested in-- by exploring the world of Akkerman and their interesting bottles. :)

Can't you see which ink on the colour? :)

They are #10 Ijzer-Galnoten Blauw/Zwart, #16 Oranje Boven, #20 Pulchri Pink, #21 Chinatown Red, and #27 Bezuidenwoedgroen.

SBRE is added to the existing herbin, R&K and GvFC order.

Akkerman inks arrived today. :)

Unfortunately, in the box of #24, i got a hideous pink (all pinks are hedious) #12. Useless for me.

 

Edit: It's so hideous that there isn't even a review of it.

I don't know whether it's my browser redirecting me to some other link, but that link has cat paws and not Akkerman. :P

 

Still, nice paws. :)

 

I would have preferred had some other color gotten mixed up, because #24 blue-green is awesome. I talked to Paul and sorted it out. I'll probably get a free bottle next time. :)

I'll sell this to someone who likes pink. :P
