Recommended Posts

ASA Galactic with JoWo broad nib. Inked with Chesterfield Antique Crimson. Southworth Fine Parchment Paper. My ASA arrived in the mail 6/7 and now putting it thru its paces. Truly it is a wet nib, and will need to use a dryer ink. Will ink the pen with R&K Alt Goldgrun to see how it works. The nib is almost smooth as butter--for a steel nib. I already love the feel of this pen; the flow of the ink; and the smoothness of the nib. This is a WINNER!! :wub: :wub: :wub: Thank you Mr. Subramaniam!!

From a distance, I can't really tell them apart.

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

The two colors complement each other really well while the properties of the two inks provide a nice contrast to each other - the watercolor-like transparency of Vert Pre against the opacity of Avacado. I like using them together.

Quite a lot for my doing.

 

to support the team in the EK2016 I filled 3 Lamy's with the Belgian tricolor.

This Wednesday I am using my new ASA TransNauka which fitted with 1.1 Black Oxide JoWo Nib and Inked with Iroshizuku Yama-Budo.

Sorry my photo is so lousy. The ink is also Yama Budo and the pen is a Kara's Kustom Ink with a stubbed nib.

I have the rest of the letter written to you. Since you used loquacious, I chose the antonym laconic, but also used the Yama Budo and a stub nib.
