What Color Are Your Fingers Today?

[mrt77]

Noodlers Navajo Turquoise and J Herbin Gris Nuage

[Astonia]

My hands are waterman purple along with my desk, pants, keyboard, chair and floor...My hand likes to knock things over

[Giordana]

Noodler's Nightshade - now I appreciate the color since I've been writing with flex-y pens.

[WOBentley]

PR Sherwood Green!

[PAKMAN]

Trying out my brand new bottle of Black Swan in Australian Roses. Sweet!

[meowmda]

Sheaffer Emerald Green from an old cartridge. Was adding water to reconstitute. There was a slight incident with the syringe. Good news is that Mr. Clean Magic Eraser took it all off except for one little streak where I just didn't scrub hard enough. Thanks Kathleen! https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/index.php?/topic/203426-mr-clean-magic-erasers

Private Reserve Sherwood Green... The bottle depressurized and spit all over my left hand. My right hand is clean of ink....for once?

[KrazyIvan]

Private Reserve DC Supershow Blue.

Same here. There was bit of ink accumulation around the nib which is now on my finger and it still there looking more purplish after several washes.

Diamine Majestic Blue from flushing, and then Diamine Chocolate Brown from filling. Oh, and a little Herbin Lierre Sauvage just from "handling" a different nib.

Parker Quink black. I had to tear apart and clean two pens last night, a Sheaffer calligraphy pen and a no name pen I got over 10 years ago. Both had dried up ink in them which soaking alone wouldn't clean, so I decided to try out my hand at disassembly with. They both are working now and I figured the Quink wouldn't hurt either.

Just a touch of Noodler's Nightshade. Next to the blot of Habanero . . .

Due to my TWSBI deciding to puke on me, a wonderful shade of Noodler's Baystate Blue. It will get cleaned and lubed tonight. Grrr.

My hands are covered in crystal violet dye from teaching...and some NAV and PR Sheerwood forest...can't seem to keep stains off of my hands...

This morning my fingers are Private Reserve DC Super Violet. Filled my MB 149 & 146 with it. I had a heck of a time getting the bottle opened.

[Fabienne]

Actually I have Noodler's Antietam on my fingers today. Spilled out of the sample I got from Goulet. It really looks like blood. Scary! I have tried out Noodler's Cayenne (I put it in a pen which had black in it before and I fear I muddied up the Cayenne---I did wash out the pen first BUT you know that isn't 100% effective and I was just too impatient). Sigh. It is a lovely color right out of the bottle but my little pen nib helps to make is a boring brown at the moment. Finally, I got a new Noodler's pen and it's brown and black so I decided to try Noodler's Army Green in it and, guess what? It's too emerald for me. I was wanting something khaki and I think it's a pretty emerald. Oh well.

[Postscript]

Waterford Encre Noir. Just had a Pilot Namiki VP delivered and had to load it. This ink is in my office for such situations. As an FPN newbie I don't know much yet about inks but am sure I will learn soon enough.

 

Thanks in advance for the education--and the addiction of course.

Aurora Blue (in a Pumpkinseed Laban Mento, M nib).

[rbadger332]

Baystate Blue, and Blue and black from cleaning out my Duofold Junior that arrived today. I look like I tried to kill a Smurf and lost horribly.
