Noodlers Midnight blue. Just got it and love it!

[ShallowJam]

Finally got around to getting some baystate blue. love it. love. it. love.

[pmhudepo]

Iroshizuku Asa-gao, Private Reserve Dakota Red and De Atramentis Johann Sebastian Bach.

[Tez]

De Atramentis Dianthus (best. purple. ever.), De Atramentis Year of the Dragon (not a bad blue, but I'd prefer a more saturated one), and Diamine Matador (again, LOVE). I like my colors vibrant.

Diamine Misty Blue took over from Ancient Copper in my Amber Check Centennial/B nib.... maybe not the best atheistic pen/ink match up but Misty Blue is great performer and I am enjoying this combo. My festive season ink, Umbar, still has a meritorious grip on my 149 and Matador remains my preferred red. Have been given a couple of samples of Iroshizuku to try so will get round to them in the next few days.

Hi,

Today I am using:

 

Montblanc British Racing Green in a Parker Sonnet Vison Foncé with a broad nib,

 

Iroshizuku Yama-Guri in a Sailor Professional Gear with chrome trim and a medium nib

 

and

 

Iroshizuku Tsuyu-Kusa in a Pelikan M205 blue demonstrator with a fine nib.

[AndyD]

A mixture...

I had a bottle of Herbin D'or which I've used twice.

Decided I'd like to try a lighter green than my Montblanc Irish, so totally unscientifically put a drop of it into the yellow.

Very nice spring green colour.

Today I am using the new inks I received Saturday from isellpens.com. Noodler inks are new to me and I must say they are a bit different from the Waterman and Pelikan inks I had been using. Quite a few loaded I know, but I am in the midst of some testing. Sure is fun, but they stain fingers a lot more than the Waterman and Pelikan!

And my goodness, is it a beautiful blue ink.

 

I may have just found my new daily use blue ink.

 

If you're wondering, yes it has stained the steel nib of the pen I'm using(it looks rose gold-esque), but oddly enough, it hasn't stained the converter. Behaves as well as Lamy Turquoise has for me too.

[SeeksAdvice]

Ah ha... the ink that shall not be named...
