Exquisite script ... but:

 

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

 

... I can't see the pen!

Oh boy, would I be interested in seeing that nib.

 

Cheers,

David.

I'm really very sorry. Oversight on my part. Please forgive.

 

Here's the pen.

EoC,

That's pretty special writing...no way this overwriting lefty could go there.

Seriously? To me it's just a poor approximation of what italic writing should look like. Mainly I've been following the example of _Inkyfingers, playing around with shapes and such, but haven't really got the hang of it yet - especially regarding consistency. On the other hand, it is rather fun!

I keep coming back to this pen...

It ought to be me that apologises for giving you guilt!

That wasn't the nib that I was expecting, though I shouldn't have imagined a fountain pen with script that wide.

 

I like your little assistant.

 

Cheers,

David.

love that pen

Thank you!

It is incredible to think a fountain pen made 70 years ago still writes so smoothly

The Waterman Maestro is one of my favourite pens.

It's such a smooth writer, which I used today for some correspondence, inked with diamine flowers "Aster".

The Master is a wee gem of a pen, which also writes flawlessly, and was my journal tool of choice today, inked with Asa blue.

 

Watermans.

silver linings

new to me this week. not sure exactly which model (is this a 75 or something else) or the date of this lovely parker cisele, but I do know that it has a wonderful French smooth and wet broad oblique nib (it almost feels double broad; hm?). found on eBay in Eastern Europe from a seller who didn't mention anything about the nib. a lucky stroke perhaps.
