I am always too late to the drawing prompts party, but I am proud of my horsey and wanted to add it:25190185804_32a79e9461.jpgHorse by Dawn, on Flickr

Pen: Sheaffer No Nonsense with fine italic nib

Ink: R & K Verdigris, which I don't like at all, which is part of the reason why I "wasted" so much of it for this drawing

Paper: generic paper salvaged from when I worked in an office

Great horse, I love it.

You are never too late with a drawing, keep them coming :)

Everyone has to have a sheaffer legacy or imperial. They are iconic pens.

 

I agree. Such functional/comfortable beauty.

 

Having thought really hard, if i had to stick to only one model of FP, it would have to be the Legacy.

I love the looks of those M90's, but because of my inability to use metal-sectioned pens without cringing, I have to reluctantly just admire from afar. But they are wicked looking things. :wub:

A Pilot M90. Beautiful, isn't it.

 

Thanks. It's astonishing. Like a vision from a future that never was.

 

Bet it's a (bleep) to swap the nib out, though :)

If you could get your hands on one to try, I'd definitely recommend holding it. The entire pen is tapered so it doesn't slip from your fingers.

this pen is a beauty ..

And a good writer, too. Quite heavy, but I like it.

 

Nib swap 'fun' today.
