A blue marble Pelikan M200 body, onto which I will install an EF nib I bought from Richard Binder a little while ago. This will be my second M200.

A brown striped Sheaffer Balance with FeatherTouch nib

Above all shadows rides the Sun
And Stars for ever dwell:
I will not say the Day is done,
Nor bid the Stars farewell.

My first custom Japanese pen. A Nakaya Neo Standard in black/red Tamenuri with gold clip and just a hint of custom Yakoh maki-e. It is more than I'd imagined in its simplicity. My pen. My Ladybug Nakaya. Oh, yes, I'm happy. And I think I've found the abyss known as custom Japanese fine writing. I wonder I should ever emerge to see another "light of day" in pendom. I am truly, though anxiously, anticipating the completion and arrival of the next three, special Danitrio pens. Along with the two pens I'd purchased from the Winedoc series, I think there is no turning back.

 

 

Edit: my first high grade custom pens were created by Brian Gray of Edison Pens. I had some custom hand turned wooden pens prior by Robert Parish.

Got my Omas Milord which i purchased from this board. Even though it's a cartridge filler i love this pen. It looks so good and writes so smooth.

A Sheaffer 100 Gift set, in red and bushed nickel.

 

The pencil is fantastic, and the ballpoint... it's passable.

A Pilot M 90 from John Mottishaw. This seems to be one of the coolest pens I've ever had.

I've written only a few words, but it writes beautifully. Ah, those Japanese nibs!

A Conklin Mark Twain crescent filler M nib from Speerbob. So far it seems great. First page already written with Waterman Fla. Blue and the results are nice.

A green Esterbrook SJ with 1551 nib. My first Esterbrook or lever filler. Trying to resist inking it up until the J. Herbin Vert Empire I ordered for it gets here.

A silvery grey Sheaffer 350 with a #3 nib that needs a bit of smoothing, and some resaccing - excited about this.

Burgundy Sheaffer PFM II with an XF nib. :cloud9: It actually makes me feel a bit bad for my Legacy XF, which is neither as fine nor as smooth.

 

It might even be the subject of my first review, since I see there aren't currently any PFM II reviews up.
