Don't Just Tell Us About The Pen You're Using, *show* Us! - 2016

A bit of exercise today for the oldest pen I have, a Mabie Todd Swan (unnumbered, probably from 1940s?).

Lovely writing! what's the color of ink?

 

Oh, and that's a killer pen as well.

Ta. It's Diamine Sepia.

Absolutely beautiful!

 

Weekend sketching with and without colours. Done in my fabriano venezia sketchbook, various watercolours and drawn with the fantastic Platinum 3776, which I to begin with had some problems with, but now, after a month of sketching, it's an absolute dream pen. I use De Atramentis archive black ink

I really adore your sketches!

I just love the range (and results) of amazing pens in this thread. Skysora's elegant dip pen next to Attika89's futuristic parallel beast. Pens rock :-)

Pens rock :-)

 

That about sums it up right there.

your handwriting is amazing... where do you get these reed pens...??

Thank you! I cut them myself. See https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/302473-dont-just-tell-us-about-the-pen-youre-using-show-us-2016/?view=findpost&p=3575676 for a how-to.

Yeah, sorry, I'm here again tonight. For the first time since I swapped in some Bock nibs, I have sat down and done some more careful writing with my Jinhao x750 with a Bock 1.1mm calligraphy nib, and oh it is a delight. Really pleased with how this pen has turned out. And pretty good value.
