Parker Quink black XD. I cleaned my dad's old Lamy Safari Red, and refill the cartridge with Quink with a syringe because I couldn't find the cartridges anywhere (Amazon and eBay refused to ship to where I am currently).

And I also have Diamine Woodland Green and Montblanc Royal Blue in pens today.. but not on the hands. I cleaned out an ED ink with Noodler's Zhivago in it, now I have Zhivago on the hands too! :headsmack:

This is what happens when I have time to get on FPN during the summer months. I was reading this thread and saw Noodler's Black Swan in English Roses mentioned. Never heard of it or seen it before so of course I had to try some! When I got the new bottle and opened it some leaked on my fingers, the bottle and the carpet. :headsmack: Thankfully with some diligence the stains came completely out! I'm loving the color!!! It's in my new hot pink Parker Urban. :cloud9:

Yeah, you have to be REALLY careful with brand new bottles of Noodler's. They fill them right up to the top.

I haven't bought a new bottle of Noodler's in a while and had forgot that fact! I am sure I won't forget next time!

Noodler's Army Green, Private Reserve Ameican Blue, vintage Carter's Hunter Brown, and Noodler's Black on me today. I met with a client late in the afternoon, after filling some pens, and they kept looking at my multi-hued fingers, but they never said anything.

Iroshi Yama-Guri

and

Noodler's Apache Sunset

 

Getting used to the Brown, and trying to find a use for the Orange. Love the colors, though.

Teeny blip of Iroshizuku Yama-guri under my thumbnail from fighting with my Monteverde Mega inkball. I really wish that thing would write...

:headsmack: Sheaffer red (cartridge) - and some real blood, too, from a mishap with the edge of the paper cutter. (Not deep, thank goodness!)

I washed out a pen today, so... Baystate Blue on my thumb and on the sink.

I'll come up with something eventually.

Noodler's Ottoman Rose

 

Mystery brown flushed out of Sheaffer TD filler desk pen bought at an antique store. *Why* do people insist on leaving ink in their pens when selling them to antique stores? :bonk:

Yesterday: My hands were pretty much covered with noodlers navajo turquoise after adjusting a nib on one of my pens. I'm just to impatient to wait till its empty... headsmack.gif

 

Turned out great though... :)

 

Today: My testing ink. A mix of about 5 different inks resulting in an ugly blue black-ish color... My right hand fingertips are pretty messy after fiddling with this leaky-estie nib for a client... It just needed a dab of silicone grease on the threads. :D

Clean at the moment, but if history is any indication, Diamine Marine will be back on my thumb by the time I get to bed. (Man, I have been FLYING through that color! I should have gotten the big bottle... :huh: )

Today its a mixture of PR Blue Suede, Iroshizuku ku-jaku, and Noodler's Army Green. I made a big mess re-inking some pens, then I had to meet with clients so I tried a little ammonia solution, which worked in large part, just left a very noticeable dull, greenish-blue smudge across my fingers and thumb
