R&K Scabiosa, my first IG ink. Excellent hairlines in an EF dip pen.

Cheers,

Effrafax.

Per request, here is a fairly close representation of what comes from the nice bottle I posted above.

P.S. Ignore the spray. That's something else. http://i1319.photobucket.com/albums/t662/go-wildcats/IMG_1987_zpsesxbuwqb.jpg

Intriguing! I think I'll pick this one up after all. Thanks for the writing sample, Pensei!

I'd love to see what those ^ look like, but (forgive me, I'm sure it's been noted before) that's a fine quip from Nabokov.

I'm currently waiting for a new bottle of Sailor Blue Black Seiboku and for a bottle of R&K Helianthus (basically because I didn't have any bottle of yellow...)

A 30ml bottle of Diamine Ruby. Will try it out at work tonight.

 

edit: Nice ink, btw, used it quite a bit last night.

It's hard work to tell which is Old Harry when everybody's got boots on.

Came home to a nice package of samples and a bottle of Edelstein Amber from Lapis!

My fingers are always inky and I'm always looking for something new.  Interested in trading?  Contact me!

Came home to find a package from Anderson Pens in the mailbox http://www.theshavingroom.co.uk/community/styles/default/xenforo/clear.png

 

For about $1.50 or so per bottle it's a great way, I hope, to see if a particular ink will do it for me.

In this lot;
Diamine Pumpkin
Akkerman Oranje Boven
Noodler's Walnut
Rohrer & Klingner Alt-Goldgrun.

Will be great fun to, for the first time, break away from solid black....

For me the Lifesavers would justify to oder there :-)

I received a Diamine Midnight on Saturday and it goes very smooth with my MB 146 on German Gohrsmühle Zanders Classic paper.

My bottle of Sailor Kobe Nagasawa #14 Maya Lapis got here this morning. I bought it blind, so I am eagerly anticipating writing with it for the first time later this evening!
