And from a thread today:

PS: That was Robert Oster Bronze, but obviously the lighting + camera turned it into some other color. :( I made no effort to correct it.  Murky greens are disliked by every digitization process I know.  (Maruman Mnemosyne paper, Kaweco Sport, f)

Thank you; and thank you very much also for starting this thread, it made me start drawing (poorly) even when orders of drawing instruction books yesteryear totalling >$200 did not so much as compel me to open them and read them, let alone picking up a pen to draw anything!

 

My wife thanks you too; she thinks it's great I'm doing anything voluntarily (other than buying pens and inks, and trawling online forums).

:D You're very welcome!  I haven't done so many of these the past couple of years, and I missed it, so I'm glad it's helped both of us (and others) use a bit of creativity.

Every time I see a notification that there is something new in this topic, I start smiling. I know that there is going to be something creative, thought-provoking, clever, and fun coming when I click on the link. I need to make my own contribution, someday.

Thanks for posting this. I always found the combination of "fountain" and "pen" to be strange.

My favorite part of this one is the "family photo" on the wall. Hilarious!

Well, that proves you can't embed IG posts in a forum message (not that I thought you could).

These days Instagram will demand that you're logged in, anyway, when you try to retrieve a resource from its servers.

Yeah, I didn't think it would work - was testing prior to answering another person in another thread, and didn't want to make a new thread just for testing.  Personally, I don't know why you'd want to - I suppose they want to avoid uploading the images to multiple places...
