This was my Christmas present from my family (which I gave them to give to me).

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

[EDIT to fix a picture link; sorry, I am out of practice]

 

I was away from FPN for a while, but I started reading up again a few days ago. This was always my favorite thread. Below is some of the flex practice I have been doing using quotations pulled from a random website (please forgive any mistaken attributions). I have a stable of cheap pens with Noodlers and FPN flex nibs that I practice with. Maybe, someday, I'll graduate to a real vintage flex nib. Alas, as you can see, I am not ready yet.

 

The blue in the middle on the left is a mix of Noodlers Blue and Noodlers 54th Massachusetts. I really like it (close-up below).
