Terrible phone pic, my apologies. Really impressed over the pen -and- the ink (I just cracked open my first bottle of Diamine Damson today and I -really- like it a lot... the picture does not do it justice at all. It's a very greyed out saturated plum colour, almost mauve but less pink and a good deal darker).

Pilot Custom 823 with medium nib. Mine is the brown/amber semi-translucent one. I've got it inked up with Iroshizuku oxtail (whatever it's called). I'm going to try the Pelikan Amber when it comes in.

Noodler's ebonite Konrad with Diamine Merlot for the morning journal entry; finally ran that pen dry, so finished out the last page with the new-to-me (as of two days ago) Morrison, with Quink Black.

Random quick notes and jottings with the Morrison, and also with a regular (i.e., resin body) Noodler's Konrad filled with (diluted) Noodler's El Lawrence; and the blue Parker 51 with Herbin Eclat de Saphir (also somewhat diluted at this point).

Stainless steel Parker Sonnet with gold trim (GT), right oblique gold plated nib (the one for lefties) and Sheaffer's blue-black ink.

 

The pen came today. No nib in the pen, as advertised. Just the home for the gold plated right oblique.

Normally I can resist answering this question, because I'm writing with a coherent (= not very various) lot of pens and inks. Today, however, is just a little different:

 

Parker Aero 51 with a broad nib, OMAS black

 

Parker Aero 51 with a fine nib, Cross black

 

Italix Parson's Essential, medium italic/stub nib, Waterman black

 

Lanbitou Pocket Rocket, excellent fine nib, Cross black

I found in a box yesterday my Shaeffer Prelude with a fine nib (I thought it have been stolen at work). Cleaned it, re-inked today with Black Parker Quink, and trying on every piece of paper how the ink goes, to compare it with my Blue-Black Noodler's ink.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Preppy Eyedropper loaded with Waterman Serenity Blue. I have arbitrarily decided that in the future,all of my "demonstrator" pens will be loaded black inks such that I will use the Preppy until it is time to load up.

That's a good one! I work on what people here call "Pill Hill." Lots of climbing up the "Hill" to the many Pharmacies!

The Manuscript Classic Calligraphy pen writes okay. Guess that I tend to "lean" a tad bit "heavy" on this FP. Wish I took Calligraphy Classes some years ago!
