Wow!

 

Beautiful pen with amazing nib. It's almost a crisp italic!

 

:puddle: :puddle:

 

 

 

 

Thanks! I really should have acknowledged you as my source of inspiration to get this edition.

 

And it's so nice to be an inspiration instead of a warning. :)

Kaweco Dia 85B (maybe 1939). The smoothest nib I have...

All your recent posts are delightful, to say the least. Have you ever tried a Vac700 stub / Kon-Peki combo?

 

Well done Inkfillet :)

It's good when the ink play well with the water....

Ok she is not like him, but who knows ;)

Today at the Robot party, Kubik the Box Robot picked up a fountain pen owned by Igor the Rat, a fatal decision...

Igor the Rat is pure evil. Now I'm scared ;)

Yes, I have. And I didn't like it... But that is mostly because I read so many good things about Kon-peki, that when I finally bought a bottle, it just didn't live up to the hype.

... Never underestimate the power of human stupidity ...

I use it with my Aurora 88P (Fine nib). So far, so good.

Hi!!!

 

Today Kaweco pens has a good reputation, but I don`t like this kind of brand ressurection... New Eversharp... New Kaweco... New Esterbrook...

 

Almost all my pens are vintage pens.

 

Vintage Kaweco Dia, is a great pen and you don`t need to sell one of your kidneys to buy one...

 

Cheers!

 

Eduardo

More you say? Not sure if you wanted more Wilde, or more of my writing. Fortunately, you'll get more Wilde, and unfortunately, more of my writing as well. With pens, of course.

 

In order from top to bottom:

Esterbrook 239 Chancellor's Stub

Jaclin "Parrot" 1517

Cross and Lambert Silveroid Series #4

I've always been jealous of the trees too. I wrote this in 1971:

 

Oh little Sequoia, a standing in the wood,

I hear you laughing at me,

Yes I know how silly it is

Running hither and yon.

But you need to be careful,

little tree,

The very thing that can bring you down,

is all that mobility.

 

 

Oh I like this very much as well :D

Eli, thank you for the comment on my sketch. How's your Kurrent practice going?

Skysora, SNAK asked the same question, the sketchbook I'm using is from a Daiso, a Japanese store chain.

I don't think it's even designed to be a sketchbook, but I find the paper to be very fountain pen friendly.

A great shading ink, I love the effects

But this ink has 2 faces, like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

Don't let it sit unused in a pen for several weeks, otherwise it will turn into a smeary oily fluid which will never dry again on the paper.
