Kudos to Ian the Jock, who introduced us all to the Hua Hong Blue Belter, and named it, and to supermoderator Richard, who introduced us to the Kaigelu 316, and whose finial modifications make the already-good Kaigelu 316 even better.

Heh, heh, I'm alright, no new finials required here for my Roo, he's just all the more mighty as he is. :)

Lovely penmanship.

 

Can I ask what models of venustas/Venvstas you have and whether you like them (I don't think I have seen a review by you). TIA.

Franklin-Christoph Model 45 XLV in Coco Pearl Finish. The thought is inspired by Mark Twain.


The pen comes with the SIG Medium Steel nib and boy it is amazing. Will detail out this in an upcoming review of the pen. And the ink in use is Kaweco Caramel Brown.

Well, darn, it's a lousy picture of the pen. Ink Fingers fixed it for me and I love it. You've seen it before.

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

Just exquisite... The pen, the ink, the calligraphy, the photo set-up, and last but not least the quote. Thanks for sharing.

I will finish this cartridge! Someday...

 

Yet again, Lamay Safari 1.1 and Lamy Dark Lilac. But this time a quote I wish I could write on some of my students' papers.
