Visconti Michelangelo (black with rose gold) filled from a sample of Mont Blanc Corn Poppy Red.

Italix Parson’s Essential (Amber) filled with De Atramentis Richard Wagner (marone).

Retro 51 Tornado Black Cherry filled with De Atramentis Mark Twain (Kermesin Red).

 

I had to get an Edison non-branded nib for the Italix because it skipped too much while writing with the nib it came with.

I was having a great Parker day today at school... Some of you may gasp in horror and reprimand me for it, but today I had to select my upcoming high school classes and I wanted it to be a special occasion... A Parker 51 Aero in Navy Grey and a Parker 25 rollerball for the carbon copies from a very generous person here on FPN who gave it to me along with the FP verion in a holidays PIF

Celebrating my last night at my job with a translucent blue Sheaffer school pen inked with the very happy Skrip Turquoise.

It's hard work to tell which is Old Harry when everybody's got boots on.

Been an active pen day for me:

Sheaffer Balance Oversize (black), F nib -- Birmingham Pens Schenley Park Thicket Green.

Parker 61 (black), M nib -- diluted Birmingham Pens Smithfield Street Bridge Truss Blue.

Parker 61 (red), M nib -- diluted/reconstituted unknown black ink (although I'm starting to suspect it's plain old Quick Black).

Parker Vacumatic Speedline filler (Azure Blue Pearl), F/M nib -- vintage Quink Microfilm Black (although it looks more blue-black to me).

TWSBI 580-AL (pink trim), B nib -- Diamine Tudor Blue.

And before the day is through, I will be adding:

Parker Vector (yellow -- although I'd call it Aztec gold, like on the 3 Sisters Bridges over the Allegheny River near PNC Park), F nib -- Platinum Classic Lavender Black IG

and maybe something in the blue Parker 45 with the OM nib (which turns out might be a Y nib after all...).

Today I used a Parker 51 and my TWSBI Eco. One was in waterman blue, the other in waterman black. I only use waterman in general because I have so many vintage pens.

Today my Faber-Castell Loom arrived, and I LOVE it. Glad I went for a broad nib. Probably going to be the answer to 'what are you using' for quite some time...

Filled with Diamine Syrah, which I find really easy on the eye.
