I received the Kaweco Art Sport in the mail yesterday (won it via a raffle during Fountain Pen Day). Inked it up and it writes great! It's smaller than my other pens, but that's OK.

I'm using a Hero 395 in copper,(it has a nice Arts & Crafts look) with Hero Blue Black. Resistance was futile ;)

Today (and virtually every day) I have my TWSBI Mini All Black inked up with Noodler's Black. As solid as the sunrise.

 

During the day when I'm at my desk I also use my Parker 21 desk pen quite a bit. It's inked with Noodler's/Goulet Liberty's Elysium - the best blue since Penman Sapphire.

I'm using my Pelikan M205 today. I think it needs a nib workout. It's just a bit scratchy. This is not working out to be my favorite pen of all time and I will NEVER buy another white-section fp again. Don't know what I was thinking when I bought it.

 

It has J. Herbin Eclat de Saphir in it. Wow, I thought Kon-Peki was a wet ink. This one is like cry me a river.

For a while, the M205 nibs have been a little "off" and I ask my retailer to check them before I purchase.

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

Same pen and ink today, except just one page because I'm no longer catching up :-)

Sailor 1911 large, F nib, Aurora Black for writing practice. Palmer method on iPad (PDF from www.iampeth.com) on the side while I do my ovals and straight lines. I think it's good to occasionally review posture, grip and motion.

My new Lamy 2000 (Satunless Steel model with 14K nib). I already love this Pen and am sure it will receive lots of use.

Twsbi Micarta 805 v. 2 with an. EF nib, which needed a lot of work but now writes beautifully. This is probably my favorite sized/shaped pen. Really great material, also. Shame they discontinued it.
