I know Diamine Shimmer inks will get in the spotlight soon, but here is a little Emerald of Chivor

Thanks Amber, I kept refreshing the page, and waiting until it had finished loading, but the images remained code. However, the problem seems to have vanished as mysteriously as it appeared, so all's well that ends well

Atila, WOW.

Amber : Nice collection of pens. Your writing style is elegant and adorable. Ink selection is a perfect compliment.

 

Thanks for explaining - Franken pen. Oh it has come from Frankenstein monster. Do I have to collect body parts ?

I found the OMAS Senna NOS and the Pelikan M805 Stresemann heavily discounted today at Peters of Kensington's in Sydney. I'm not used to paying less for fountain pens than the Americans and the Europeans...this is really weird! And very very satisfying. I think I'll end up giving the Pelikan to my dad for Father's Day next week.

#InkyFingers, at least now I know who is hogging all the decent dip nibs. No wonder I cannot find a single one!

Wancher Imari Blue is a very saturated navy/blue black ink which shades appreciably. It is consitent across different pens and nib-widths. One of my top blue/blue black inks.

First of all! Thank you so much!

And congrats to the M805! I'm still waiting for mine

 

Here you can see that I've used the PO nib upside down quite a lot And I love it!

I had no problems with stippling either, not counting that it's tiring...

I am not familiar with a posting nib. Can you explain what this is please?

Atilla, I really like the complex gold sheen that glistens in your Emerald of Chivor. I've been playing with my folded dip pen and find the turquoise highlights that emerge to be quite interesting.

 

And this is, of course, the newer Pilot Falcon -- started out on a broad Namiki Falcon years ago.
