Played with an Ackerman fountain pen today fitted with a tachikawa g nib. Used platinum sepia pigment ink and a little bit of watercolor to bring my friends OC Pursuit to life. With heavy artistic license seeing as he doesn’t have an official reference yet.
Got a cute ring system that I’m primarily using as a Japanese study spot. But! I have been using it at work for notes at meetings and design planning. I love it, she is so cute.
Here is a picture in light from the window from when I initially swatched it for Inkvent. I currently have it in my Lamy <F> and that’s what I wrote with in the sample I originally sent. This sample was with a dip glass pen so definitely a higher ink load. I’m eyeing that hope pink now for me.
Another one to look into that I am obsessed with right now is Diamine Mittens. It’s a Barbie pink that’s pigmented but safe for FPs. So you can highlight over it etc. It’s so girly pop. And I love that it’s way more waterproof. Used a tombow to highlight.
Thank you for the chance. What a fun idea. As a fellow fountain pen fan I look forward to seeing your collection! This is my android girl Sophia. 💜
I swapped the tops of my coffee series twsbi and it just gives me teddy bear aesthetic vibes. Look at that, they are siblings. <3
Had the pleasure of checking out Papillion Press in STL while I am in town this weekend. Beautiful little shop! I picked up some vintages pens and way too many goodies. Included a glass pen from wearinguel that is so cool.
Tonight I am playing Astroprisma! About to land on an abandoned old world planet where a defective android waits for a fight. Writing this adventure in a Life Noble b6 notebook with a Sailor PGS Iris Nebula <H-M> inked with the ever delightful Kon-peki.
What’s currently in my daily carry fountain pen pouch. <3 what’s life without some whimsy at your easy reach.
I really love it a lot! I bought it specifically because it looks like a space nebula or something.
Do you still like to hand write too? My writing was horrible but Fountain spent obsession has me practicing all the time now. And I have improved!
Oh man all I draw are ocs! To my detriment sometimes, but I just love thinking about my blorbos and their roleplays and making art for them. In order, ffxiv Braeya and Maidar my friend and is married couple, then Delilah and Jade, Bunnie and Cassandra all from a cyberpunk rp site.
Diamine Inkvent 2025 day 11 Brr! Pigment with shimmer Ok! This pigment ink might get more uses out of me than the red from earlier. Dark teal ink with a blue shimmer. I just tested it boldly with some water and it didn’t budge at all. Nice formula Diamine!
Diamine Inkvent 2025 day ten Nostalgia Very warm dark brown studded with a chameleon shimmer in a rose gold variety. Decadent and gorgeous. I am very happy with this one.
Colorverse Colorvent 2025 day 11 Blue Hole This hole was made for me because I adore this gorgeous robins egg blue. I need this in a pen yesterday. Pretty shading between the blue and a lime green hinting itself in the hue. It’s giving 90s kid clear tech gadget.
Colorverse Colorvent day ten Flame nebula Red orange that is different from any I already have so pretty happy with it. Very well behaved ink! Think it could look good with yesterday’s glimmer potion.
Colorvent Colorverse Day Nine Morning Frost on Mars A glimmer potion so not much to this swatch. It’s a champagne gold and pink color to my eyes. It added a lovely shimmer to the little test swatch I did with a random purple I had in a vial.
Colorvent Colorverse Day eight Snow Angel Spilled this ink too. We are struggling over here man. Besides the bleed on the swatch this is a lovely warm pale brown.
Colorverse Colorvent 2025 Day seven Lgm A surprisingly legible lime green! I spilled this ink all over the place.
Diamine Inkvent 2025 Day nine Bittersweet Lovely spring green ink. Very minty~
Diamine Inkvent 2025 day eight Dream Catcher Super sheener with a lovely deep denim color with bright pink sheen. Had a spill with the color verse ink and in the scramble smeared across it.
Diamine Inkvent 2025 Day Seven Blush Really liked this strawberry light red pinkish tone.
Diamine Inkvent 2025 Day six Fir and Fog Yessssssssss. Oh this desaturated pine green is really doing it for me with its subtle shimmer. This is the kind of ink I love. Dark legible and a little magical.
Diamine Inkvent 2025 Day Five Marie Rose This is a tea ink if I have ever seen one. I really like its look. Kind of weird and not one I would buy myself but I could see loving this in the fall or something.
