Lamy Orange ink is on my hand today:P

For those who may ask "What? Lamy doesn't make orange inks?!", this orange cartridge came with my Lamy safari when I bought them as an added bonus.

I don't think they sell individually though which is sad because it's true bright orange color!

[PaperDarts]

Diamine Damson, Diamine Prussian Blue, and J. Herbin Poussiere de Lune. Got a bit distracted refuelling today!

[saketb]

Well Orange Crush from Private Reserve got on my fingers today...

[JLT]

Galileo Manuscript Brown. It turns red on one's skin after a couple of washings.

 

And a few hours later I've added some Omas Blue . . .

Noodler's Dostoyevsky. I'm still not sure how I feel about this one as is, but I love it under black light!

[GardenWeasel]

A nice shading of Sherwood Green...

[floydee1]

Aurora black - whilst fitting an old Skyline nib to a TWSBI. I'm getting there...

[inkspot]

Caran d'Ache Sunset, J. Herbin Bleu Pervenche, and J. Herbin Rouge Bourgogne... No actual filling issues, just can't seem to write without drawing on myself every few minutes :embarrassed_smile:

My homemade waterman purple + waterman red. splendid color!

[mark e]

found an old bottle of quink washable blue that i thought was empty---not paying attn, i opened too quickly and spilled about 1/4 ounce on my fingers, shirt, the buffet, the floor....

 

turns out it's washable from everything but skin---still, it's a great color outlining my index fingernail, and it contrasts nicely w/ the diamine oxblood that escaped whilst filling a 51

[liapuyat]

Waterman Havana Brown. I thought my Reform 1745 was out of ink and twisted the piston to see if there was any left. It turns out the feed was still pretty saturated even though the ink window indicated I was going to run out of ink soon.

[GardenWeasel]

Sherwood Green - only because I'm optimistic that 'just one more tweak of the nib' will make it smoother!

[msahrap]

Noodler's Kung Te-Cheng from a nearly empty eyedropper, beautiful color but I think I'm getting tired of eyedroppers burping on me...time to put the sack back in this pen.

[Tiffanyhenschel]

Today, I finally got the last spot of BSB off of my fingers from when it dripped a week ago. Note to self -- don't try pouring to refill the crystal ink well again. Next time, use an eyedropper.

[WOBentley]

Noodler's Blue and Aurora Black!

[humblescribbler]

PR's Shoreline Gold, only because with my Pelikan Amber demo I had brain freeze. (Lefty loosey? Righty tighty? Which way am I holding the pen?) Dumped it onto my page and hand.

[JefferyS]

Diamine Umber. I really fumbled it while filling a Pelikan.

[JLT]

Today it's a spot of Noodler's Bad Belted Kingfisher.

[Vincent1278]

J Herbin Eclat de Saphir. Bluest blue I've ever used
