Waterman Phileas with Noodler's Nikita

root beer Esterbrook SJ with J Herbin's Perle Noir (surprised I like this ink, I expected it to be unsatisfying in comparison with Noodler's black, but it is OK!)

Most and best service from my 1949 Parker Shadow Wave Vac with the factory B stub nib. This pen is a pleasure to write with. That Saior Jentle Epinard looks great coming out of the pen.

 

Just a note with my Pelikan M700Toledo: the Diamine Ancient Copper seems such a great compliment to this pen's looks.

 

A few practice strokes with the smoothest pen I have, A Pel M600 with a Motishaw customized 0.8mm stub.

 

And off and on through the day with a 1945 Emerald Green Vacumatic with a custom 0.9mm cursive italic. This pen is more demanding of my sloppy ways. The Diamine Delamere green is a good match.

Parker 45 with Pelikan Brilliant Brown

[Plume145]

I'm not sure which ones I got around to using today, but here's the ones currently inked:

 

• Lamy Safari frankenpen with a recent yellow cap and barrel and a nib section from an older charcoal Lamy Safari (the barrel of the older one didn't fit over the converter I'd already inserted and filled, so I just used the yellow safari barrel and cap Ink: Scribal Workshop Nessie. Dra-ma!
• Sheaffer No-Nonsense Pink, M nib (the ones isellpens had on sale a few weeks ago lol). Herbin Larmes de Cassis
• Luoshi 708 calligraphy nib, Noodler's Rome Burning. Have finally met ink I hate actively dislike.
• Luoshi X450 calligraphy nib, Scribal Workshop Toad Purple. Both these Luoshis have been clogging something fierce lately, but I can never get around to looking into this properly.
• Parker No Clue What Model with B nib and Iroshizuku Tsuyu-Kusa - shading to make grown men cry tears of joy.
• Waterman Phileas Mississipi Red, Sailor Jentle Apricot (Oh Em Gee, Gor-geous)
• Sheaffer No-Nonsense Black, old (without the metal dot in the cap), M nib, with totally lame Herbin Scented Purple ink.
• Parker jotter M nib, De Atramentis Sandlawood
• Eyedropperized Preppy with Herbin Gris Nuage
• Sheaffer Agio Compact in Black with M nib, Herbin Bleu Nuit
• MB 145 burgundy, M nib, Herbin Bleu Nuit (these two are standards - the agio lives in my bag/pocket)

Oh crud, that's like *counts* 11 pens *gulp* Maybe I oughtta slow down? Hehehe
