What Color Are Your Fingers Today?

[Rhincodon]

Just now, Iroshizuki Kon-Peki.

 

"Hm, my pen isn't writing, what if I twist the converter up a bit -- TOO FAR TOO FAR." [splurt]

[joshk]

Diamine Majestic Purple. Have I mentioned I love the Diamine bottles?

[sumanjay]

On this autumn day, my hands are the same colour as the leaves on the tree on my driveway... a beautiful orange-red. Thanks to Noodler's Apache Sunset.

[frazzlerazzle]

Private Resereve, midnight blue (fast dry)

[cfpen]

Visconti Turquoise.

[DanielCoffey]

Oddly enough my fingers are totally clean but there is a spot of Noodler's Zhivago glaring at me on the table from when I filled some Ink Exchange vials. Damn!

[Freddy]

Antecedently...to cleaning my hands...the following..

Skrip #22 permanet blue black..Noodler's Ellis Island {FPH exclusive} blue black and Pelikan 4001 royal blue.

...on the hunt...sniffing out the scent...

[GardenWeasel]

Navajo Turquoise & Cactus Fruit Eel... it has to be magic!

[Jenne]

Private Reserve Naples Blue, since I was filling a converter from a tiny sample bottle.

[Martini25]

Sheaffer Red and Private Reserve Plum, I filled two pens today!

[777]

Noodlers Squeteague... I was playing with nibs again... Got it all over my forearms too...

 

Regards,

[USMCMom]

DC Supershow Blue

"Hm, my pen isn't writing, what if I twist the converter up a bit -- TOO FAR TOO FAR." [splurt]

 

I did this just the other day though in a slightly different way...

 

"Hmm... This converter looks low, I'll put a little more ink in it." Normally I tip it up when I twist it so the air escapes and the ink stays in. I didn't do it this time... I held it upside down without even thinking twice about it... {ink drips all over hands...}

Today I am sparkling as I'm covered in Daler Rowney Pearlescent FW. Liques Acrylic Calligraphy ink (not sure about the name) in black and galactic blue.

I can wash off the black and the blue but the sparkle appears to linger.

 

I feel like a Twilight Vampire. I wonder if I can jump from tree to tree now and stop heavy trucks with my bare hands.

[Inka]

Earlier today, some Iroshizuku Ku-Jaku Peacock gave me nice turquoise blue-green fintertips.

Later I filled a pen with Noodler's Bad Belted Kingfisher and got nice dark blue to blue-black stains on my fingertips.

No pens were leaking, no converters leaking, I just get inky fingers from the filling process taking ink from small bottles using a 3cc syringe & blunt needle, during wiping off bottle rims and syringe tips ink soaked through the paper towel onto my fingers.

All is well right now, all ink has been removed from hands & fingers using a dab-o'-Dawn dish washing liquid on a scratch-resistant scrubbing pad, so no more inky fingers [until next time, that is]!

[Gobblecup]

I just discovered pilot blue.....

 

I love the bottle and now I love the ink!

 

Tested it for water resistance and I am really impressed!

Is Kung Te-Cheng a color?

[funkypeanut]

Is Kung Te-Cheng a color?

 

Yes, it's a blue purple from Noodler's, supposedly the color used at the imperial Chinese court. It's an understated purple that's good for everyday use.

 

Right now I have Noodler's Turquoise, which I like quite a bit on the paper. I can't get it out of my cuticles, though, so it looks like my extremities aren't getting enough oxygen.

[KrazyIvan]

Just filled my Red Esterbrook J with Private Reserve Lake Placid Blue.

[Jenne]

J. Herbin Perle Noire. My Esterbrook was unhappy that I neglected it, so it gave me a little present on my ring finger.
