29800247336_262b41601a.jpgFinally found the perfect ink for this pen. by Richila, on Flickr

 

Finally found an ink that made this pen fun to use.

Fantastic pairing. I can see the ink flows very well and it matches the pen's color.

Awesome job _InkyFingers! Do you hold the pen as you would a "regular" italic? You're getting excellent line variation and a nice flow.

Readable versions will follow. I have written but haven't had time to post.

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

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

And here is a really terrible picture of the nib and some written with the test ink De Atramentis Pearlescent though I'm going to suggest metallics.

Dip tested this one today after a bit of nib realignment - no big issue.

 

This pen will enter my next rotation and be used probably mostly for sketching. For 33 € + 10 € shipping, I guess this was a-okay.

 

The other pen I'm using today is a green Preppy, lol.

Just got this beauty to stop leaking (hence the 4001). Now its railroading just a bit, so I probably need to change inks to something wetter...

usk15: That is a cool project. Having used Rapidographs (ugh) myself, I wouldn't have thought about the possibility of converting them into FPs.

Ok, I used cartridge Faber CAstell and a disposable Rotring (thank goodness :D )

Try Waterman Serenity Blue, my Wat 52V loves it.

I love your Blackbird! And what flex. Wow. Those are fantastic pens, aren't they?

 

Today, i am writing with a rare Snorkel with a Gregg point.

Yes, they are! Sometimes I think I could start collecting Blackbirds :)

 

Your Snorkel also looks great! Great color!

just.... WOW :D

If my handwriting will look just as good as yours, because of this nib, then should I have it ;)

Beautiful pen, beautiful writing!

 

 

 

 

 

Nice green pen with great nib! It is so inconspicuous, and yet it is a strong player ;)

And again, wonderful handwriting :)
