Thanks Bob, I like this color.

 

hh1990​ - good job. Is this a Pilot Parallel with original red ink? The larger nib size and font size gives a more beautiful contrast on thin / thick lines.

 

Thanks.

Sorry Andrew, I completely missed this. Yes, that was 1.5 mm Pilot Parallel with a Pilot Red Mixable Ink cartridge.

Thanks Bobje. I’ve only started writing again, for fun, after many years of almost nothing more than a few words.

Sorry for not mentioning it in the original post. The ink is MB Shakespeare Velvet Red in a Dollar Pen with a sharpened nib grafted from a Hero Calligraphy pen.

Hey, David,

 

That's a really pretty pen -- ebonite or wood? Love the triangular shape, write comfortably?

 

And, as usual, your hand is top-notch.

 

Enjoy,

Randal

Yours,
Randal

From a person's actions, we may infer attitudes, beliefs, --- and values. We do not know these characteristics outright. The human dichotomies of trust and distrust, honor and duplicity, love and hate --- all depend on internal states we cannot directly experience. Isn't this what adds zest to our life?

Thanks, Randal!

 

The pen is in ebonite - "Vesuvius" by SEM. With a round section, the pen is exceedingly comfortable.
