Awesome! I hope you enjoy it Sir!

We have sort of a wan sun today, barely visible through the blowing snow, which makes for a nice picture, at least:

 

 

This is what it looks like where I live on this "first day of Spring" (actual temp: -4 F) I show this only to make the rest of you feel better.

Cognaticrotty - 6MM!? Wow. (And I hear you have a NAKAYA on the way! Looking forward to seeing it!)

 

Cyber 6 -

 

SJH - Yellow Safari + PR Buttercup = perfection!

 

dcpritch - That's definitely spring sun...the reflection off the snow... (Sorry, it's gorgeous here this morning. )

 

JazzDoc - Stompie said it!

 

Stompie - Your Safari nib looks... golden! Those new nibs...and your art...wow. (Instructional, too, as always!)

akustyk,

 

Sorry for the non-handwritten reply, but I'm at work, so no photos - the most helpful thing, for me, with the French-ruled paper is that it really helps me to keep my lowercase letters at a uniform size - that is what has given me the most problem on other paper! It's scalable as well, so as long as you know beforehand what size you are writing at, you can keep everything uniform at pretty much any time!

[SJH]

It's after 2am and I just want to play!

Most of these have been posted before, but please indulge me, I'm in the zone.

 

Stompie: I am thoroughly enjoying my LAMY's, please keep posting additions to your (pen) fold. ("Don't call me sir, I work for a living", in a few hours actually!). {can't recall the movie I'm quoting from tho'}

 

dcpritch; I Love your photographs. There's a storm breaking behind me but I want SNOW!!!

 

akustyk; You have an awesome collection of pens mate, I'm getting some Expensive ideas!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PR Buttercup in my New and First Safari; so pretty, and the pen/ink combo ensures Galactic Alignment.

LAMY Black freebie cartridge [i'm out of Aurora and waiting on some Noodlers too.]

Sheaffer Red Skrip

PR Spearmint

PR Electric DC Blue

Clairefontaine A4 wire-spiral notebook.

 

 

Thank you for your patience kind scribes.

 

Best regards,

Steve.

WOW - Galactic Alignment is Strong tonight!!

[Stompie]

akustyk, I cant remember if I asked you before - have you tried Turkish Nights? Now if you want to sit and watch ink change colour, that is THE ink to see!

Greenish pen, green ink, in honor of spring (even though my world is still snow white)

[saskia_madding]

cyber6 - I absolutely LOVE that pen. LOVE IT! Thanks for the picture.

[dcpritch]

Hi line, great looking pen - what is the brand?

 

I used Noodler's Antietem in a post above - its the closest red I have to blood red. Here's a comparison of it to JH 1670, also try Noodlers Tiananmen and Diamine Oxblood and Monaco. Good reviews of each can be found in the Index of Ink Reviews.

 

Cheers, DAVID

The inscription says Pan Jr. I think the producers called themselves "Norsk Fyllpennfabrikk" (Norwegian Fountain Pen Factory). This pen is produced in the late forties, I think.

 

Thank you for the ink suggestions!

PS, DC, the pic of your car is priceless. My neighbor said this morning "Welcome to Spring! It's really sprung." as I was waiting in 4-degree weather for the school bus with my kid on the street corner.

I'm sure you're all used to it by now, but my apologies for my poor photo quality.
