Fountain pens, manga, earthquakes...not necessarily in that order.
Updated for e-commerce...Very good! The original was set in 1963.

Excellent choice. You can use the other FPs to test out new inks before filling your favorites.

Years ago I collected a few. They started life in 1928 as a stylus fountain pen invented by a druggist who hated what regular fountain pens did to his paperwork. When ballpoint pens took over,Rotring partnered with Kohinoor to make the waterproof ink pens introduced as the Rapidograph in 1953.

Many of these products can be bought where you live. Jetpens can also ship internationally.

Although Fern Valley has served me well, I'm open to other suggestions. The Pink Stuff should arrive sometime between 10am and 3pm.

Humboldt Hands, available most anywhere.

I remember meeting a cartoonist who modified the nib feed of a Pelikan 120 student pen to take waterproof drawing ink. It did work for him and he could go to conventions without the hazards of an open ink bottle. It's why I'm not dogmatic about what people use.

The term is misleading. You can draw with any type of ink. But Drawing Inks refer to drawing with a dip pen, not a fountain pen. Please look at this link for fountain pen safe inks.

This is my favorite, but Jetpens has quite an assortment of pen cases. They do ship internationally.

This clever folding pen case transforms into a pen stand for your desk. The main compartment has room for plenty of pens, and an internal velcro pocket helps keep smaller items like erasers and paper ...

I hope you can draw more of them. this is really good. It got me to join your fanbox. AI does not replace your creativity.

Sorry to hear. I really wish you the best and love your artwork.

I like how you make "out of frame" work really well.

Thanks and good luck.

If it had rounded ends, that would likely be the 120. It was a "student pen" (sub-contracted to Merz and Krell) that came with a wide selection of screw in nibs. One Ebay seller told me the cap would sometimes break because of the pressure the clip would place on it. You can still find them on Ebay.

May as well as practice self care.

As kind of a pleasant aside. Cass Elliot (formerly of the Mamas and Papas) had a song out about the rumors of a massive California earthquake that was popular at the time (1971?). Interesting misconceptions back then.

Just got my order in. Thanks much for the tip or is it nib?

I'm curious (and not up to speed), but what are the advantages of this techno nib?
February 12, 2024 at 9:37 PM
Esterbrook does. You can get it direct from them.

It's good to hear your analysis on these shakers, Lucy. Kind of helps calm things down. Welcome to Bluesky.

Have you tried Ebay?

Maybe I don't know much about Aurora pens, but why does the nib look bent over like a flap?
