Ok, so here is some of my latest writing project. Whaddya think?

Stompie, this is great work! Really!

 

As for my last post: I tried to post a photo from my phone. Didn't work. Impossible to delete posts. I'll post the photo when I'm home again.

I don't have a lap top so I'll just appreciate it for form and consistancy. Amazing work, Stompie!

It's been a few days, hasn't it?

This pen is weeping over the flight... It is most displeased, but only when horizontal...

Be forewarned... I will eye-bang the bejeezus out of your pens...
Never play leapfrog with a unicorn...

... Didn't empty the reservoir?

 

I did that on my flight. Ink had exploded everywhere, except my Varsity. Taught me a very valuable lesson, as it took a good hour to get all the ink off. :(

 

There's a reason why ballpoints were invented. This was precisely it (apparently... this is a hearsay so I'm not too sure.)

Not usually an issue for me - keeping the nibs up during ascent and descent pretty well takes care of it. I have found that there might be a *little* seepage if I leave the pens horizontal the night before, too - kept nib up the night before allows the ink to drain, and no worries...

 

But, this little pen has been written with a lot today, and then I had it on its side for photo time.. oops... :)

I was actually going to start a topic moaning that there's a Stallone pen, why not a Batman pen. You've proven me wrong.

 

Is that actually an FP? And does it have Batlogo on the nib?

Yep my Batman pen is a Parker Vector fountain pen. No bat logo on the nib I'm afraid, just on the barrel.

 

Actually in issue 10 of Art, Pens & Culture magazine it showed the new Montegrappa Batman range of fountain pen, watch and cufflinks. (Following on from the success of the Stallone pens.)

The Eagle has landed, the Eagle has landed.

Ahhhh, one minor issue, the Eagles nest is in Austria, so still a way to go till Norway!

I can only draw stick men and because even they are so bad I didn't do it because y'all would think I was doing heiroglyphics!

I love the eagle cartoons. Thank you!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Perhaps so, but your writing is a beauty, Stompie. I, on the other hand, have no talent in art and my handwriting's only legible at the best of times.
