Diamine Majestic blue on three fingers. My eye-dropper'd Franklin Christoph 65 is almost empty and burped up a nice blob of ink in the middle of Sunday service.

The praise of the praiseworthy is above all rewards.

Emerald of Chivoir. Sample that arrived today leaked in the sealed bag, so it got on my fingers. Haven't gotten it into a pen yet. :( (But hey, shimmery fingers!)

My fingers are the colour of Noodler's Baystate Blue today!

 

I just tried a sample, and I think it's a gorgeous colour - and thanks to its apparent resistance to water, I expect I'll be able to enjoy it for days to come :D

Chesterfield Erinite, a very nice green. I have an old bottle of Parker Penman Emerald and the Erinite is not too far off to that.

I've had Japanese Spider Crab* on my fingers today. It's a much, much better colour in the pen than the original swatch I made when it first arrived. An interesting warm mid-toned coral/brown mix, with good shading.

Nothing (so far). But yesterday I kept getting Noodler's Heart of Darkness on my hands. It's in one of the Noodler's Charlie pens, and while it doesn't *seem* to be burping ink (and I'm not seeing any ink on the end of the barrel when I post the cap) and I'm not seeing a crack anyplace when I wipe down the barrel, I keep ending up with black ink on my hands....

Pilot (Namiki) Blue and I don't know why. I filled my Pelikan M205 Taupe (with a wonderful fine Gold M400 nib) with it and I'm suffering severe nib creep which is filling the cap with ink and then my finger. Haven't had this problem with either the pen or the ink before although this is the first time I've combined them.

Green/black and a red/brown tinge today.
