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

Iroshizuku Kon-Peki, one of my favourite blues. :)

Do you mean me? :) It's Life Vermilion. I like the cream colour and red gridlines. I only wish it were available in more (and larger) sizes.

It's very nice.

Here are a few Pigmented inks, on my Kyokuto Expedient F64 Notebook. You may recall from my Japanese Papers Shootout that it was the worst behaving of my Japanese papers. I said at the time

 

Avoid. Not worth it unless you only use Fine nibs and Carbon Pigment inks.

 

Consequently, it was ideal for testing some Blue pigmented inks.

And the back, showing the bleed through

Top (a little bleed through showing) - Platinum Pigment Blue

Middle (noticeable bleed through showing ) - Sailor Seiboku Blue-Black

Bottom (no bleed through showing) - Dr. Ph. Martin Ocean Edge Blue

Nice comparison. Again one notes the resemblance of Ocean Edge Blue to PPS.

Rationalizing pen and ink purchases since 1967.

The colours aren't that accurate. What I was showing was the relative behaviour on the paper. In real life, the Edge Blue is quite different from PPS.

 

Ok, so on the to-do list is a compare and contrast between Edge and the PPS family blues.

 

How far away is the weekend?

Received these a while ago but only had time to test them out today. I was disappointed that the Texas Blue Bonnet I received is not the turquoise version. I was hoping for a waterproof turquoise. The Blue Steel is quite nice.

Ok, so here is a comparison between Ocean Edge Blue, PPS and Liberty's Elysium

 

fpn_1466335900__oeb_vs_pps.jpg

 

This is on Tomoe River paper, the top pen is a Dollar 717 pen, the middle is a Pilot DPN-200 and the bottom is a Platinum 3776 Medium.

 

You can see that the OED is a bit darker, with a subtle pretension of green, vs the pure blue of the bottom two.

OOO< I like the Pione. Okay, I like them all, but I really like the Pione. Is it actually that saturated in a smaller nib?

I guess not. The pen here is newly inked.

 

I have a review of it: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/292492-sailor-usagiya-pione/?do=findComment&comment=3649648
