Jentle blue black on my left thumbnail and a drop of baystate blue on my left pointer

"Once committed to fight, cut. Everything else is secondary. Cut. That is your duty, your purpose, your hunger. There is no rule more important, no commitment that overrides that one. Cut. Cut from the void, not from bewilderment. Cut the enemy as quickly and directly as possible. Cut decisively, resolutely. Cut into the enemy's strength. Flow through the gaps in his guard. Cut him. Cut him down utterly. Don't allow him a breath. Crush him. Cut him without mercy to the depths of his spirit."

Today I decided to adorn my right hand with Mont Blanc Toffee Brown and some deep red/brown ink I mixed myself.

Mine are still Levenger Raven Black but my friend and I are getting some ink samples. Soon my hands will be pink, purple, and red as well.

J. Herbin Empire Vert -- I had a little accident with the bottle while filling one of my vintage MBs. :embarrassed_smile:

My Visconti was in its case inside my briefcase. I hit the brakes during my morning commute and the briefcase flipped onto the floor of the car. Forgot about the episode until I unsprung the cap this afternoon and now PR Ebony Green is a part of me. :headsmack:

 

Thanks,

Today I'm mostly Waterman Florida Blue. Learning how to ink up a vacumatic is colorful!

I'll come up with something eventually.

Today Lamy Turquoise from switching nibs on the fly and accidentally pulling out the feed. Oops!

I refilled a pen today and somehow managed to get absolutely no ink on my fingers. Something is surely wrong... :blink:

By the end of the day I'll be sporting PR Naples Blue with perhaps a touch of a color from April's Ink Drop. There's even a chance I'll pick up a bit of Aurora Black.

Ick. As of an hour or so ago, when the bladder on an old Sheaffer cracked while filling, a number of fingers and one thumb are definitely Whaleman's Sepia-colored.

Right now, I have a small Akkerman Blauw stain, but I have a feeling it's going to be more than that later on ;)
