@0xabad1dea.infosec.exchange.ap.brid.gy"Where did that old Kakuno go? Maybe it still has an old Con-50 in it that I can put to better use"
Didn't find the Kakuno. Did find:
- tub of beeswax
- emergency radio
- cute glitter hair ties
- three gently used Con-50s 🥳

Playing with a pen from that classic Sheaffer calligraphy kit that no less than three well-meaning adults gifted me through my childhood.
Looking for online guides to help me stretch beyond vague memories of Sheaffer's Italics worksheet.

@philibin.bsky.socialToday’s Fountain Pen / Ink / Paper combo
#Hero 359 (Clear) EF nib
#TomsStudio Loch Ness ink
#Rettacy 100gsm A5
No feathering, bleed, or ghosting
The Hero is a Safari copy, but is a good pen and has some nice features, nib isn’t as good as a Lamy though.
@toga.penfount.social.ap.brid.gyORANGE DIPLOMAT VIPER!!
I'd secretly been hoping they would release it in this colour, but was doubtful since the brown existed. Due for release near the end of the month. Now I know what's at the top of my shopping list for the London Pen Show next month!
@nicolejleboeuf.wandering.shop.ap.brid.gy(Of course I'm using my #FountainPens and #FountainPenInks! Finally coaxed some shimmer out of FPR Royal Flush, love the way it's sparkling on these postcards!)

No feathering, or ghosting. One bleed spot on heavy shading.
I think I got a pretty decent pic of the purple to green sheen.
@foolishsteve.bsky.socialI've been searching
over a decade for what my mind finds to be the perfect purple.
I wanted purple hew, yet dark enough to fool the eyes, asking, "Wait. Is this purple or black?"
I found it. Diamine Purple Bow. Oof. Magnificent.

The ink looks much better in person and is hard to photograph the sheen.

No feathering or ghosting, slight bleed on heavy shading
I tried to get the sheening. Hard to photograph, but is there.
@amberglas.bsky.socialI’m not into fountain pens like a number of people on BlueSky, but I deeply covet this one.
