PR Black Magic Blue

On my fingers, my hand, my wrist, part of my arm...well, I needed to decant the dregs of a bottle into a Laban ink well to make room for something else. :embarrassed_smile:

Filled one for me and one for my daughter last night from well filled ink-exchange vials -- Yama-Dori and Hope Pink.

Cracked an old cartridge last night (I'm going to order a new replacement converter today, I was just too impatient). Now I have Perle Noir fingers and thumbs.

Dragon's Napalm all down my right thumb. Guess the cap wasn't seated quite right when I went to open it!

I'll come up with something eventually.

Diamine Orange. For unknown reasons, I had a heck of a time loading my Levenger True Writer with my sample from Goulet Pens. I have been working my thru a set of orange samples this week and just wasn't paying attention today. Ink on the counter top, fingers, hands and, oh some in the pen! This trouble may be worth it because I love the ink!

Pilot Red.

"No one can be a great thinker who does not recognize that as a thinker it is his first duty to follow his intellect to whatever conclusions it may lead. Truth gains more even by the errors of one who, with due study, and preparation, thinks for himself, than by the true opinions of those who only hold them because they do not suffer themselves to think." -J.S. Mill, On Liberty

A slowly fading splat of Baystate Blue on my palm, one fingertip covered in Diamine Midnight, PR Burgundy Mist under one fingernail, and a random streak of Diamine Oxblood on my pinky. I wasn't all that careful this weekend...

Baystate Concord Grape splattered around both hands. Have tried hand soap, peroxide, Windex, shampoo, vinegar (but not mixed all together). Still stained.

Unknown black ink of uncertain vintage. It was caked inside an Esterbrook pen that I was cleaning out in preparation for installing a new ink sac.

Mine are ingrained with cambouis, the French name for a cool mix of road muck, brake-block dust and WD40.

When you're good at it, it's really miserable.

Sailor Jentle Green Tea. There was more in the cap than in the sac. I have to stop flinging my backpack over my back. Inadvertently shared it with a friend, too.

Oops.

Diamine Kensington Blue in my Parker 51, and MB Midnight Blue in my Thomas Mann, medium nib.

NOS Quink Red and a 2:1 mix of Parker Blue and Waterman Purple. But they washed off pretty easily :)

Noodler's Ottoman Rose - I dropped my pen case and then took out my Etruria Amber to write with, filled with Ottoman Rose-, and some Herbin Café des Îles for good measure because I was playing with the filler button on my Etruria 991 :D.

 

Looks like coffee and blood stains :D.

Greetings all,

 

Monteverde Turquoise, (loaded my '87 Cross [Century]), and Southern Sylvan Green, (I'm painting the window trim on Hotel Sebastian), for my N-Scale layout... does the latter one count? :huh:

 

All the best,

 

Sean :)
