Got some Noodler's NAV on my hand -- not sure how, since I wasn't flinging the pen around (not like when I dropped my Platinum Plair at the top of the stairs the other night, and I may now have to rinse the Diamine Kelly Green out of the cap...). I checked the section and wiped it, just in case, but no ink on it, nothing, nada, zip.

Got to clean out at least one pen tomorrow, so who knows what color(s) I'll end up with then....

Brown!. I just ran my TWSBI through a sample of Diamine Chocolate Brown studying for my final tomorrow.

 

I like the ink color on paper, but man does it look gross inside of a demonstrator and even worse to get it on your hands.

Lamy's blue today. I accidentally gave my rotring art pen a whirl, when I was half dozing off during an aftenoon class, and it spat some ink on my hands and shirt.

A variety. A little bit of Diamine Kelly Green (thought I'd use up the vial in a broader pen than what I put it in originally). A tiny bit of Noodler's Walnut -- although I managed to be neater. Some Private Reserve American Blue, to try out both it and the Guanleming calligraphy nib pen (my first bulb filler). And (mostly) the last of the Diamine Registrars Blue Black. As in both mostly the last *and* most of all the colors on my hands. :headsmack:

Um, that was because of a *teeny* accident with a syringe :bonk: -- so RBB is *also* on the bathroom counter, and (as I just now noticed) the sleeve of my sweatshirt (thank goodness for Clorox II). And, well, let's just say it's good I thing I wear glasses..... :embarrassed_smile:

I've had better days (weeks, if you count the syringe that got dropped behind the vanity yesterday...). Think at some point I need to run up to the pharmacy counter at Sam's Club and see if I can get the same size syringe -- they have 100 count boxes for something like $12.50, but I don't know if they only have the insulin size ones.

I suppose I *could* blame the klutziness on my cold....

Baystate Blue at the moment. Pulled nib/feed out of a pen loaded with it.

Well, I have a little bit of two colours on my fingers right now. Filled one pen with Noodler's Antietam and another with Rohrer & Klingner Verdigris.

Orange. MB Ink of Joy, if I remember correctly, from adjusting ink flow and stubbing a nib.

Random splotches of Waterman Havana Brown. It's not enough to warrant a thorough scrubbing though.

Sailor Blue/Black. I find it oldie worldie and enjoyable.
