What ink(s) are you waiting for in the mail?

[avlisyar]

I have two (2) Tekkerinks that are being mixed.

The suspense is killing me ... Cannot wait till

they are here.

If you don't mind me asking, what is "La Couronne Du Comte"? Some store which keeps stationary supplies? Edited January 29, 2016 by Mew

Thank you. It seems like an interesting website/store. They have a fairly broad selection of pens, inks and paper.

I'll try to visit them whenever i go to Netherlands.

Waiting for few bottles of Parker Penman Sapphire and few bottles of Parker quink solv-x, technically not via mail but they are heading my way, ETA three days.

The inks arrived

Where precisely did you locate a "few bottles of Parker Penman Sapphire"? EoC was gifted a small sample and had thought to acquire a bottle, but they are not exactly common, and often when they appear on eBay they go for unrealistic prices.

Hello EoC,

 

I am getting them from a guy who seems to be having unlimited supply (at least he never said no to me so far).

[Cryptos]

Hmmm... care to share?

[northstar]

Are you coming to Iraq ?

[Cryptos]

Hardly. In an earlier life perhaps, but not now.

[Noihvo]

I thought that I had enough green inks. I mean, J. Herbin's Lierre Sauvage seemed to be the ultimate for me. But nooo…

I understand, so may be it's easier to look for another source

Another run of samples for me. Iro Kon-peki, Ku-jaku, Syo-ro, & Tsuki-yo this time.

Some Diamine 30ml bottles to christen my new M800 Grand Place:

 

Ochre

Raw Sienna

Macassar

Sargasso Sea

 

(That last one isn't going within 5cm of my M800, based on the clean-up nightmares I've heard. Should do well in a second-hand Royal Blue Cross Century II though )

I have a bottle of Edelstein Topaz and Pelikan Royal Blue inbound from Goulet's. The Royal Blue mixes with the Brilliant Black at a 6:1 ratio to make a very pleasant blue-black.

 

I recently mixed up a batch of 5:1 = Pelikan 4001 Royal Blue : Noodler's Black. It also produced a rather nice blue/black ink, which I used in a Noodler's piston filling fountain pen.

 

Given all of the blue ink I have, and rather a bit of Noodler's Black ink that I have, I could mix up a lot of variations on blue/black, and over the years I probably will.

First time poster; long time follower. Waiting for 54th Massachusetts (and a new "51" Special that's thirsty). Feeling slightly guilty about the purchases over the weekend but I expect that's a common feeling among FP enthusiasts.

[Russianwolf]

Pelikan Edelstein Garnet and Amber coming in right now.

And I now have all 4 of the Ink of the years from Pelikan Edelstein.... waiting on Aquamarine to hit the stores.

 

Now to find some of the other hard to find inks.

Some pictures of this mix would be nice.
