I have a tear of happiness!

 

 

You motivated me, somehow MBRB did not end up in my 366 inks last year so I inked up. Now it is #376. (As you can see, I'm not inking up a new ink each day. I'm sort of burned out).

 

I also inked up Rohrer & Klinger Super 5 Dublin.

Today(ish) ...

 

Sheaffer Prelude B with Waterman Harmonious Green

Kaweco Al-sport M with Noodler's Bad Black Mocassin

Edison Collier F with Sailor Jentle Do-You

TWSBI Vac 700 with Diamine Shimmertastic Blue Pearl

Pilot 78G B (Italic) with Noodler's General of the Armies

Cross Solo with a fpnibs Italic 1.1 nib and Diamine Shimmertastic Red Lustre

 

and on my desk at the office, a Sheaffer Imperial desk pen with a blue Skrip cartridge ---which doesn't get much use.

 

This has led me to realise that I'm very far from 3 pens at a time rule lol

Noodler's Ellis Island Blue Black, in the Dark Lilac Safari.

J Herbin 1670 Anniversary Rouge Hematite (original formula) in the Pelikan M 100 -- the 1 mm nib does wonders for this ink!

Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

Yama-dori and Pelikan 4001 Pink.

J. Herbin Larmes de Cassis in a Kaweco Classic Sport, 1.1mm nib. After a week in the pen, the ink is darker and lovelier.

Omas Orange

I am using Robert Oster Purple Rock in two pens, a Parker 51 that writes a very fine line and a Levenger Galaxy Aurora with a medium point. No one would ever guess that the ink was the same: the Levenger pen produces a gray purple, as one would expect, while the Parker 51 produces a color near black, with a tinge of green.

Tokiwa-matsu and Skrip Turquoise.

Diamine Asa Blue in a Mabie-Todd Self-filler. Wonderful performance with a Medium flex nib.

Today was bookkeeping day! Since I do every account with a different color I used:

 

Noodler's Liberty Elysium in the Platinum 3776

In the Monteverde, 50:50 Noodler's Zhivago:R&K Helianthus (dubbed Faux Daniel DeFoe from Tas here: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/279433-inky-t-o-d-color-swatches-green-please-post-your-pictures-and-tell-us-your-thoughts/?p=3228879) THIS is a beautiful color... I don't even feel bad that I can't get the MB version!

In the TWSBI 580: Iroshizuku Yama-budo

In the Lamy Safari: 50:50 Pilot Blue:Monteverde Black (not sure I'll repeat this mix)

In the TWSBI Eco: Sailor Yama-dori

and a pink cartridge in the Platinum Preppy.

Iroshizuku Kon-Peki in a Franklin-Christoph XLV. So far, so good.

[GardenWeasel]

Black Swan in Australian Roses. Written with a MB super wet OB nib. Yum!

[jmccarty3]

Robert Oster Fire and Ice in a new TWSBI clear Eco stub.

Waterman Serenity Blue in an Esterbrook LJ with the smoothest M nib you ever saw.

[Aysedasi]

Diamine Racing Green in a Sheaffer Legacy - Broad nib.

[Dufffader]

Hermes Rouge H in a Pilot Falcon SM.

Always wanted to try out this ink and managed to get a box in CDG while on transit.

I would call it a muted red, drying out to something close to brown-red.

[amberleadavis]

We'd love to see it.

[chromantic]

Triple threat tonight - Yama-dori, KWZ Maroon and Diamine Ruby.

[Ada]

Just two today: Iroshizuku Kon-peki and R & K Alt-Goldgrun.
