Black Swan in Australian Roses in Triple Tail - that ink smells soooooo good... I can't stop sniffing the nib...

Ooooooh Maoxi, never seen it available ANYWHERE... I've seen so called "limited editions" on sale after pen shows, but this one must have sold out pretty fast Looks very pretty AND extremely well behaved, a one-of-a-kind combo with Noodler's in my mixed experience...

I watched NT's video. Ask your retailer or Luxury brands, he's willing to make this one.

I cannot compete with Ink Goddess amberleadavis co-razy views, but who said this was a competition anyway.

 

Still working with the Gate City Belmont filled with Taccia Koiai (Dark Indigo). It's a huge fill so it'll take a bit of time to work through it all. Not that I'm complaining either. And the KWZ 150 Confederation Brown is in use.

 

But I've been on a purple kick for a while, wanting to have purple/violet available in a pen. Usually the three pens in rotation will have a blue, a green, and a brown. So now I've moved on to Sailor Hougado Pen Gallery Nodaiko Violet.

So far today it's been Edelstein Topaz, in the M600 Violet and White, EF nib. But it's still early....

Yesterday it was diluted Noodler's El Lawrence (Noodler's ebonite Konrad, flex nib); Akkerman Dutch Masters Stormachtig Blauw (Cross Solo, B nib); vintage Quink Washable Violet (Parker 51 Aerometric, EF nib); and Noodler's Heart of Darkness (Noodler's FPC, flex nib).

Sailor Jentle Blue.

[white_lotus]

Sailor Kingdom Note Garrulus lidthi is the current blue ink as of this morning joining the other two inks mentioned in Post #3150.

Noodler's La Couleur Royale. After using some nicely shading Diamines (autumn oak, handel...) this one is so saturated it writes a perfectly un-shaded line no matter the thickness of the ink laid down. It also takes forever to dry, but I find the color very pretty.

[timotheap]

- Noodler's Black Swan in Australian Roses in a Lamy Fine nib - it makes it almost a fluorescent pink !

- Herbin Larmes de Cassis in a Conklin with FPR flex nib - only a very wet nib can make this watery ink interesting...and that way it is actually growing on me. When wet it is a pink quite close to BSiAR (at its lightest), and it dries darker and more purple.

- Monteverde Olivine in Ahab - mostly because I'm waiting for Diamine Earl Grey to arrive in the mail

- Diamine Ancient Copper in Noodler's Dixie

- Herbin Poussiere de Lune in FPR Muft (actually watching this pen to see how much ink evaporates)
