The brown marble M200 I got last November. Trying to use up the Dark Forest to give Maccasar a go in it but then I keep looking at it and thinking "what a pretty color".

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

A Nib Creeper - I didn't expect to be such a cute little thing, quite elegant in fact.

With Noodler's Golden Brown - wow. Even more beautiful than I hoped for. I need to let it dry quite a bit though, or it smudges.

Yes, Noodler's FPCs are amazingly good little pens for the money, and I discovered that with some of mine, the nibs got more flex to them as they got used more.

Which reminds me -- a couple of mine still need to have new o rings put in them.... Guess I'm doing that this weekend besides doing laundry and sewing face masks (the new order the PA Governor just instituted requires anyone going in any business has to have at least some sort of mask on, or the business is allowed to tell that person to leave.

Oh, and I have to run to the grocery store pharmacy tomorrow afternoon to pick up a prescription, and I've got a refund check to get deposited at the bank (drive through only), and there's the next couple of days of NaPoWriMo prompts....

Nice selection of pens!

 

What nibs do you have? Do you have a preference, or do you have a range?

That's because it's gotten a custom aftermarket urushi lacquering done by Bokumondoh in Japan. The lacquering was done to his taste and is very elegant 😊

Methanius is right, I sent it to bokumondoh in Japan. The original pen was an Aurora Nera, and this is the final result.

I quickly went to Bokumondohs website and then also to yours - the matte black nib with the urushi and gold leaf is amazingly refined. Your other pens are also beautiful - thanks for sharing all this!
