Pilot Custom 845 Urushi in my own mix of 5/6 different inks to create

a bluish dark-geen that shades nicely. In comparison PR Blue Suede

is much greenish & light.

Pen Log, Supplemental:

 

Pilot Vanishing Point, medium nib, Pilot black ink via cartridge

Aurora Ipsilon, pewter blue, IIRC the official color description--a greyish blue, in any case--medium steel nib, and it's either loaded with Iroshizuku Kon-peki or Noodler's Ottoman Azure--the latter, I'm pretty sure.

Well, this is technically from yesterday, but I'm still up so I 'm going to fudge it a little. :rolleyes:

1) Noodler's Flex-Piston Creaper (flex nib) with Noodler's 54th Massachusetts

2) Noodler's Konrad (flex nib) with Noodler's Kung Te Cheng (okay, okay, it's me we're talking about -- am I *ever* without this ink? :lticaptd: )

3) Parker 51 Aero (my joy of a '49 Plum :wub: with a M -- I think -- nib) with Diamine Denim. This will get a lot more use today because I'm going to be airborne....

Also in the running: Rotring Art Pen (EF nib) with Pen & Ink non-shellac India Ink, assuming that there's any ink left in the pen -- I used it quite a bit to do drawings this trip; and (possibly) Kuretake eyedropper brush pen with Noodler's Georgia Peach highlighter ink.

I bought a Lamy Nexx on sale with a Left Handed Nib and I'm in love with it. I have filled it with Diamine Majestic Blue and all I want to do is write with it.

 

The nib feels amazing (who said there's no such thing as a LH nib?), and I feel like I'm writing with a beautiful felt tip pen combined with the perfect fountain pen.

 

I have a LH Schneider Base and it's great too, but this is even better. I briefly went back to my Pelikan M800 Brown Tortoise with a M nib this evening (which has been my favourite nib) and it felt ordinary compared to the Lamy LH nib. Oh dear, what about all my other beautiful pens?

Nakaya long piccolo with a Platinum black cartridge loaded in it. Tell you what that is some ball bearing they put in them cartridges, can here it rolling around as I tip the pen back & forth.

Thanks to some long overdue nib work, I'm using my Burgundy Parker 51 with EF nib inked with Waterman's Mysterious Blue
