momijizukamori: Isamu Nitta from Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne. The text reads 'solitude' (Isamu | solitude)
A pen post for Fountain Pen Day, consisting of things which I meant to post like a month ago and forgot.

Pilot Iroshizuku swatches, and my new setup for swatching - putting the nib from a Pilot Metro in a dip pen holder, and using a sculpting tool for a big smear.

Paper swatches of Pilot Iroshizuku inks - kon-peki, ku-jaku, chiku-rin, yama-budo, and Murasaki Shikibu, along with two dip pen holders and a metal sculpting tool with an angled round head.

The pronged holder works better with the nib but the cork wants to soak up any ink like crazy so I may get another one.

Close-up of two dip pen nib holders without nibs.

(I really need a fountain pen icon, I think)

Inspired by [personal profile] yhlee though I have far fewer pens than he does so this will be a much more occasional series, heh.

Pen: TWSBI Vac700r Iris
Ink: Pilot Iroshizuku Momiji

A clear fountain pen with iridescent metal trim, filled with bright red ink, and a writing sample of said ink.

This is one of my two favorite pens, and was the one I carried around with me until I got the frankenpen. The feed can be a bit leaky with some inks, though.
