What Color Are Your Fingers Today?

[corniche]

Waterman Inspired Blue.

Diamine Blue Lightning shimmering ink, which I bought along with a pen for a friend's birthday. Opened the box to find it basically exploded on everything (thankfully the pen was in a separate package!). And so my fingers are not only blue, they are also very glittery.

[tinct]

Yama Budo. I was looking for a relatively well-behaved ink and busted out my sample. Then proceeded to find out that it doesn't scrub off so easy

[cello]

I have a bit of Rohrer and Klingner Scabiosa on a couple fingers, but that is much better than almost dumping the bottle on myself, which was almost the scenario this morning.

[Noihvo]

[twin63]

Monteverde Horizon Blue.

[Jadie]

Diamine Vivaldi, Sailor Grenade remnants around the base of one finger nail from an accidental leak a couple of weeks back, and some dried blood beneath the skin from a pinched-blister thing (ouch)! B-blood is a kind of ink too, right?

[chromantic]

A small blob of Musk Green on my thumb where it touched the rim of the bottle when filling the M300.

[Misfit]

Diamine Eclipse

Nagasawa Kobe #23

[inkstainedruth]

Still have some Noodler's Heart of Darkness on my fingers from refiling a pen from the sample vial I made up for when I went out of town last week -- I wanted something pretty permanent just in case for times when R&K Salix wasn't up to the task, and the pen I'd had it in, a Noodler's FPC, seemed to be out of ink when I got back home this afternoon.

Take-sumi.

[LWJ2]

Blue-black, from an almost-accident whilst filling my TWISBI vac-Mini with Noodler's Bad Belted Kingfisher. I hope this finds everyone doing well.

[N1003U]

Iroshizuku Tsukushi (testing the wetness of a nib).

[inkstainedruth]

Some sort of blue-black looking smudge on the side of my right middle finger, diagonally below my fingernail. Not sure if it's J Herbin Bleu des Profundeurs (from filling a Sheaffer Snorkel a couple of nights ago) or Noodler's 54th Massachusetts (currently in the Noodler's ebonite Konrad, because I had to pay some bills yesterday morning, and that's one of the inks I think is "safe" for checks and envelopes).

I ended up with Sheaffer Black all over my hands.

[Aysedasi]

Yesterday, initially various blues, culminating in Minatogawa Lime when I flushed one of my Imperials.....

[pmitc34947]

Diamine Oxblood. Actually, this was all over my hands last night too after writing a few letters and adjusting the converter a few times. I fell asleep on my couch and had a dream that I was living through a James Bond as villian episode set in an opulent mall/ apartment complex somewhere. Bond poisoned all of these people at what looked like a keychain party and they all started attacking eachother on the escalators and elevators. David Bowie, circa 1975 was even in this dream, so it was very odd.

 

I should not fall asleep on the couch and certainly not with my head propped up.

Today it was a bit of Edelstein Olivine. Unfortunately, I also got a bit on the blanket binding, so I'm going to spending some time today or tomorrow amongst the piles of laundry with the bottle of Amodex and the little brush that comes with, and a whole bunch of paper towels....

I must say, that stuff REALLY works. But it does take a LOT of elbow grease.

Noodler's Blue. This stuff sure permeates skin.
