All it needs is a bottle of green ink underneath.

KaB, honored that you asked. I'll also do a comparison shot with R & K Alt Goldgrun and Chiku Rin. This Wagner is very complex and appealing-- perfect with a stub nib.

Sat down to start addressing holiday cards going overseas. Filled my pen with red document ink and opened the box of cards only to discover that the envelopes are red as well.

 

Right...change of plan. Dark BLUE De Atramentis Document ink.

Eil, thank you. There were 3 forms for the "s", one of which is the capital version I guess. Until your post with the Duofold, EoC had never heard of Kurrent. This is the first time of trying it out, and a pointed dip pen was used (whether this is the correct instrument EoC is not sure). It is fun though, so EoC will add it to the small list of things to keep practicing!

Kurrent is fun, no doubt. And pointed dip pen suits it nicely. Happy writing!

Congrats! Coolest lamp I've ever seen

[ThyPenMaker]

I guess need to find a more permanent blue to wash over.

Two pens I finished today. I like Gold Titanium.

Would you be kind enough to show us a writing sample done with the lamp?

Attila, Congratulations! That is an awesome lamp! That'd be a family heirloom, for sure.

I'd like to see a profile of the bird. The Pelikan pontifically pointing Pelikan profusely prom peak.

Yeah, yeah, back to the hole.

That lamp is even better than the leg lamp from a Christmas Story.

 

I also love the references to Hitchhiker's Guide!

 

Thanks all for sharing the lovely doodles.
