What Color Are Your Fingers Today?

[lemanfan]

J Herbin Rouge Caroubier

[Tom Aquinas]

A hint of Skrip Blue

[colrehogan]

My fingers have some Noodler's Dark Matter on them. :blink:

[Avalonia]

Diamine's Red Dragon, which not only got on my hands, but also my notebook, computer screen, Tarot cards, desk, and keyboard. It does not like my xFountainPens x540 pen. Not at all. Lovely colour, though.

[inkstainedruth]

Quink Black, Noodler's Army Green, and Noodler's Kung Te Cheng (all from filling or refilling various pens). Well, the green is *mostly* gone from my left thumb by now....

My fingers were a mess last night. Two of my wife's pens needed filling along with my 9 yr. old daughter's and 8 yr. old daughter's pens. My wife's Deltas were refilled with Galileo Manuscript Brown and Noodler's Black. They're both button fillers and I tend to be more messy with them. Abigail's pen (Esterbrook LJ) was filled with Noodler's La Couleur Royale and Mercedes' pen was filled with Iroshizuku Yu-yake.

 

As I was looking through the ink bottles in the cabinet, I found out (the hard way) that the cap on a bottle of Dragon's Napalm wasn't sealing properly.

 

Reddish brown, black, purple, orange and whatever color Dragon's Napalm is adorning my fingers, all at the same time.

[Xeros]

Well lets just say my hands are evey colour in the world!

[Avalonia]

Diamine Chocolate Brown, and a bit of residual Diamine Apple Glory.

Diamine Bilberry

[pmhudepo]

My Parker literally started running out of ink, becoming a soaking wet writer for a few lines before it quit and needed a refill. Of course, I managed to get some of that abundance of ink on my fingers. Iroshizuku Asa-gao.

[auto winder]

Two fingers Lamy black after touching some parts that I shouldn't have touched, and a couple of spots of red and green from hot-swapping cartridges in my Kaweco Sport.

[D B Holtz]

I have two fingers with Aurora Blue (from the cleanout) and Diamine Majestic Blue (from the refill). Aurora Blue is the first ink I've encountered that didn't come off immediately with plain soap and water--which doesn't bother me a bit.

Just got a new Monteverde in the mail, and with the longer nib I ended up being a bit more clumsy than normal. According to the bottle, my fingers should be blue-black, however they are decidedly deep forest green. Can you guess the ink?

[PAKMAN]

Made a mess of my fingers today with some Diamine Marine.

[todayilearned]

Spots of Noodler's Black-Blue and Montblanc Carlo Collodi ink from mixing in a vial.

[akweelife]

Today it's De Atramentis' Mint Turquoise with a splattering of Noodler's Blue Nose Bear, on my fingers. Fading from my t-shirt is Noodler's Mandalay Maroon and Diamine's Apple Glory. (I still have not learned how to gracefully clean and refill my pens. :embarrassed_smile: .)

[akweelife]

Nail Polish Remover is gentle on the skin and works a treat.

 

Thank you. I think I tried just about everything else in the house but my nail polish remover!

[Skoff]

Today for me it's Diamine Flamingo Pink and J Herbin Eclat de Saphir whilst rying to get my wife's Visconti rollergraphic to be have itself.

[inkstainedruth]

This morning it was Kiowan Pecan. Lovely color, but a slow drier. I had smudges and blots from my journal all over my fingers. On the plus side, it doesn't feather on that paper....

After receiving an ink parcel where a certain manufacturer had not tightened the lid, my fingers are now Aurora Black.
