What Color Are Your Fingers Today?

[DilettanteG]

I admire Noodlers generous heart, but I sometimes wish they wouldnt fill their bottle quite so full. My finger pads are now 54th Massachusetts Blue Black from a fresh new bottle. There are also spots of Noodlers American Eel Black since my Namiki Falcon converter holds very little to feed its ravenous Binderized Spenserian nib. Great flexy nib, though.

I inked up a few pens today and the inevitable happened (again). Now we have R&K Leipziger Schwarz on one thumb, Diamine Skull and Roses on the other hand, and some Diamine Salamander on the remaining bit of thumb that wasn't blue-black.

 

One day, one day, I will do this and not have my fingers turn into rainbows

Some residue of Pelikan blue-black on my left thumb fingernail from some nib work early this morning, though blbk is surprisingly easy to wash off - my whole thumb was that color in the morning and almost all of it washed off without even having to scrub.

 

Also a smudge of... I wanna say Pelikan dark green? Wonder where that came from. Oh, and some brown ink, probably GvFC Hazelnut, on my right thumb, from my Noodler's Ahab misbehaving - as it always does.

A line of Krishna autumn 🙂

Today my right hand looks like I've been smoking Diamine Marine (two stains exactly where you get nicotine stains from smoking cigarettes)

[Dmact]

Left hand only, a lovely mix of vintage AM Verde draped lovingly across the back nuckle of my midle finger and pilot blue across the pads of my first three fingers and thumbnail from adjusting two new to me pens.

It was a great re-inking this morning. Herbin Bleu de Profoundours. Iroshisuku Yama-budo. R&K Scabiosa. All over my left hand.

Finger-colored. Same tropical golden they've always been. I haven't filled a pen in weeks, since I got my latest TWSBI Eco and filled it with Sailor Jentle Sakura Mori.

[loganrah]

Diamine Aurora Borealis all across the back and front of my hand after accidentally flicking a pen, luckily it all seems to have landed on my hand and not on any of the rather large number of stainable items nearby...

[phm14]

Noodlers Texas Bluebonnet, and Texas Live Oak (Dromgooles' exclusives).

This morning there was a bit of Sailor Jentle Sky High, from refilling the Pro-Gear Slim Purple Cosmos. I figured that with a somewhat wacky nib like the zoom it would be good to start the pen off with the same brand of ink. And had forgotten just how much I like the color of Sky High.... (And you know, it didn't look too bad even on my thumb, from when I was wiping excess ink off the nib and section.... )

Pinkly, left hand, thumb and middle two fingers. Managed to not get L'amant or Musk Green on me.

Noodler's Rome Burning , i think this one is going to have to wear off !

Well, today I have some residue from my latest version of a three ink mixture. So I have a 1:1:1 = Noodler's Black : Pelikan 4001 Brilliant Black : Noodler's Borealis Black mix on my fingertips.

 

I made my first three ink version so that I could keep from using up all of my Noodler's Black ink while still having a dark black ink and having some degree of the indelible quality I like. So I got a bit on the fingers. Not a big deal. Just thought I'd mention the current version of that three ink mixture.

Hahaha, great topic.

 

Mine are actually mostly clean (shock and awe) save for some leftover bruise-looking stains, from filling/cleaning up De Atramentis Dante Alighieri and Monteverde Sapphire on the same day. They combined perfectly to form the dark red and deep purply-blue of bruises...I looked awful for a couple days.

 

Right now there's just a little Noodler's Apache Sunset on my right middle finger, from writing with my transparent orange TWSBI Eco.

 

Aaand i just found a little bit of Momiji on my thumb, now that I'm actually looking...Good golly gee...
