Beautiful pen! Your writing brings out the writing performance of the Sheaffer nibs so well. The material is among my all-time favorites.

Thank you! Nice Bexley, btw - and your Cursive Italic is something to admire.

 

 

In rotation today is Pilot 78G – B Stub Nib inked with Lamy Turquoise Ink. This ink is my all time favourite Turquoise ink and it was also my first turquoise ink.

You make me want this pen. And the ink, too :)

 

doodling ...

 

Falcon and an Esterbrook, both with JH Perle Noir ... although I'm researching more blacks...

Great sketch. Very expressive!

 

As before...

And who told us (not once) about his lack of photographic skills? Now I envy your skills, it's one hell of a shot!

Practice, patience, perseverance

Your handwriting is stunning.

 

Just a TWSBI. After I put the pen down for a while, it wouldn't start again. The ink clogged the feed. It's okay, it's still a gorgeous ink :).

Beginner's luck, I'm afraid. Seriously, I have no idea what I'm doing and could not replicate that. :blush:

 

So lucky you are :)

Long time away... just sitting here reading a bit, having a bit of coffee and taking notes.... pulled out the Jinhao 159 to capture a thought or two.

Added a beautiful KNOX German nib in the XF variety to make this pen a go to scribbler...

Ink is a standard Skrip Black... funny how in my wide variety of inks, I oft come back to the basics with Skrip or Quink... I would rather think that happens to us all!

If you think everything is going well... you obviously have no idea what is really going on!

Even the scribble reveals 'the Light.' One of my favorites :wub:

That nib is excellent! I also have had good success with Knox nibs. I also really like that notebook with the red accents.

 

Your handwriting is stunning.

 

Thank you!

I don't think so! You did a great job on that!

Thank you! I think the 18k Bexley nibs are excellent. It's a shame they're now gone from the Bexley catalog.

 

 

 

This is a really cool Parker 45 factory italic 14k nib. It's more of a cursive italic by today's nibmeisters' standards, but it does have a broad sweet spot, good for cursive and italic writing. An economical alternative to custom-ground gold nibs. The ink is Sailor Kobe #23.

I have been meaning to travel off lately and thus today’s thought is inspired from travel. The thought is kinda a reminder to myself to get a travel plan in place and the target is to travel to Cherrapunji and nearby areas and also get to see living root bridges.



The thought for today was penned down via Kaweco Sports Skyline inked with Diamine Monaco Red. It is a beautiful mint coloured special edition pen and is now also available in India.

These pen are amazing value for money. And are especially suited for rough usage.

Nice one Vaibhav! And the quote is one of my favorites!

Fountain pen novice. I am aquiring pens at a frightening pace, I am afraid it might be an addiction... I see I am not alone here on FPN! Latest acquisitions - Platinum 3776 Kumpoo with Diamine Eau de Nil, Opus 88 Koloro inked with Diamine November Rain, Franklin-Christoph Model Pocket 66 prototype inked with Franklin-Christoph Honeycomb.
