Week #25 / 18 Jun: We Have Your Inks - 2017 Weekly Ink Project

[lgsoltek]

This week should be fun! Pick an ink you’d write ransom notes with. Thanks to bone215 for the idea.

 

As usual, don't forget to share with us your choice of ink, your writing, drawing, doodling or anything with the ink in this thread. You can take a photo, make a scan, or even better, write letters and CRV reviews (what is a CRV?) and mail them to the many ink pals here. You are welcome to check back on this thread even when we've gone past this week.

What's this pen?

[NicolausPiscator]

Ransom notes are dangerous and dangerous people write them. Therefore I chose Noodler's The heart of darkness written with a Noodler's Charlie pen - this specimen of the Charlie pen is a really wicked one.

Mr Lgsoltek - while everything you say sounds dangerous, the inks you used don't make me shake my fists in anger. These particular hues aren't among my favorites but they don't make me clench my teeth. I'll make it easier for the cruel ones among you - if you want to hurt my eyes use cyano-turquise (CdA Caribbean Blue, Diamine Marine / Soft Minthe)

visvamitra went with the cruelty aspect. I was going for the attention getting / sense of loss aspect.

Dear Vis, I didn't go that extreme because those colours are my nemesis also and I don't own any of them of course.

this thread is hilarious! LG trying to squeeze Vis for inks using all the colours the other party doesn't like ))))

Best one yet!

That is HILARIOUS! I had to show it to the guy sitting by me at the car dealership just now (inspection turned into a brake job and brake fluid replacement) because I was laughing so hard....

I'm hoping to get back on track with the IotW themes soon. But technology has decided to throw a monkey wrench into the works -- tried to install the software for the new scanner and got a popup window saying the "certificate" has expired.... And of course that was at 10 PM last night. So I have to wait till I get home (and I have to run errands after I get out of Honda, and one of the places I need to go is down the road from a major-ish flash flooding occurrence from yesterday...) and then call Epson and say "WTH? Did I buy a scanner that really DID 'fall off the back of a truck' after all?"

I would never handwrite my ransom notes, but if I did, I'd use Quink or Montblanc Royal Blue. Under no circumstances would I use a Noodler's, KWZI, Robert Oster or Blackstone ink. (The batches are way too small and identifiable.)

This refers to my favorite Pocket Dragon, "What Cookie?"

Spoken like a true, trained officer of the court!

Great one, Ian!

I love Mrs. The Jock. We will miss you, Ian.
