I guess I need to do up something in Levenger Pomegranate... It is to the red side, but depending on nib, and paper it does sometimes look like a reddish brown.

I agree. I also need to add the Dromgoole's inks.

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

Great color! I love inks that are in-between colors --almost one/almost another. Fun!

Very nib/paper dependent. Sometimes almost brown, other times pretty red. Red Cashmere @ 8% does the same type of thing too, but more red.

R&K Alt-goldgrün

Undefinable colour. Brown? Green? Yellow?

Sailor Bung Box Nostalgia

Nice brown.

Sailor Pen & Message Cigar

I LOVE THIS. It writes as green black and dries to a yellowish greenish brown with red sheen.

I do like the Alt Goldgrün, but generally green-browns are not my favorite (for example, Cigar). Nostalgia looks like a nice sepia, doesn't it?

Cigar looks very nice. I actually was looking at reviews earlier this week and did not like it then. Nostalgia definitely looks like a sepia - Rubinato.

That Cigar really looks cool on Tomoe River paper - there it looks green.

      On my second trip to Japan in seven months, while the going is good

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
