Playing with my birthday present, a little wider and wetter than my Lamy 1.1 but still very nice.

And again a phone for the weekly sketch thread using my Apple Pencil (which become my most used pen recently)

 

It´s a old candlestick phone.

Lovely Watermans, impressive penmanship!

 

I haven't been writing italic much lately, because I've been reading Christina Rossetti, and copperplate seemed more appropriate for copying her poetry.

 

Leonardt EF Principal, Walnut ink and Life Noble notepaper. The Leonardt nib is a huge improvement over the Nikko G I was using previously. It's far more flexible (I always thought the Nikko G required a bit too much pressure to flex) and writing copperplate is much easier (not that that makes my writing look any better), though I'm in constant fear while writing that I'll be too ham-fisted.

 

An eyecandy!

Stippling takes a LOT of time!!!!

Pointillism goodness!

 

Wonderful style and character. And the ink color is sublime.

Thank you!

 

Eliweisz, your Kurrent is beautiful. I had the thread open to your post for a while, just staring at it occasionally.

I'm so flattered!

Amazing combination: the ink, the nib, the paper, the handwriting!

Hope you'll be happy with this nib, I really love it.

Gorgeous script and ink. Love the shading.

Winter is having it's last gasp, but the temperature is rising, and should be back up to better temps by Saturday.

 

Meanwhile, it's still...

 

 

 

I'm loving this 717. These pens are far from common, but are smooth (turned-up tip), and quite nicely flexible without being a wet noodle.

 

And when I saw this holder, I couldn't resist.

EoC has $230 now in the Paypal account. Was thinking about putting it toward something nice - likely the last whole pen (nibs may still be purchased later) - but after seeing what happens at such events as the LA Pen trough Show (courtesy of Altec Green) ... well, let's face it, without a bottomless pit of money nothing good is ever going to come this way. Reality check, nothing more.

 

In current melancholy mood, more rubbish from this one, sorry. It is likely that these will be given away at some point, not sure to who yet.

 

 

Note: Jingting Shan is a well-known mountain in Anhui Province, China.
