Do what makes you happy. If that's fan art that's fine!

I had a few beers and played Borderlands 2 with my spouse.

Get some syringes and blunt needles. I mostly refill cartridges these days.
December 4, 2025 at 9:24 AM
I make my own! It's actually really fun.

After journaling nearly every day for two years I'm happy to report that my handwriting is slightly less shite.
December 4, 2025 at 9:20 AM
Correct answer.

I hear ya. I'm limping along my poor geriatric 1060 and only playing old video games until the bubble bursts.

Inkvent Day 4 Smoky Tobacco

A warm brown ink that is supposed to smell like tobacco.
I can say Diamine has improved significantly with this one. Not only is the scent inoffensive, but it's actually pretty nice to write with. With a fine nib dip pen it displays some nice shading
December 4, 2025 at 8:36 AM
love it

Yup. James Cameron is a submariner first and a filmmaker second.

Switched over a year ago. aside from user playlists I don't miss it.
December 3, 2025 at 1:47 PM
nice. one of my frustrations with limited palettes is that they're often useless for mixing.
December 3, 2025 at 1:46 PM
it is possible to read Dawnshard as a stand-alone IMO. all the important info is in the story.

Inkvent Day 3 Carousel

A bright red pigment ink. Like most of its kind it does not display any shading or sheen. It will however stain anything it comes into contact with and be very stubborn to remove.
December 3, 2025 at 8:48 AM
Ooh that's nice.
December 2, 2025 at 7:47 PM
IMO it looks identical to Colorverse Blue Dragon gold edition. But that one has way too much red sheen and it overshadows the base color.
December 2, 2025 at 8:55 AM
I'm pretty stoked about this one. It seems to have a better sheen/base color balance than Colorverse Blue Dragon.
December 2, 2025 at 7:43 AM
I have been after an ink with these exact properties for ages so I'm pretty stoked.

Purple and green are my favorite colors .

Inkvent Day 2
Energy

Swatched on Iroful, Tomoe River and Rhodia paper.

A "blurple" (blue leaning purple) with neon green sheen in the right light.

Unlike some of my monster-sheening inks it appears to be fairly well behaved and I'm not worried it will clog my pens.
December 2, 2025 at 7:33 AM
right yes!
December 2, 2025 at 7:30 AM
Honestly I wish ROP was just the Thorin and Elrond show. Best part of it
December 2, 2025 at 6:57 AM
aww so cozy
December 1, 2025 at 9:39 PM
You might know this already, but you can't put India ink in fountain pens. The particles are too big and will clog. 😬

IMO pen wise you cannot go wrong with a Pilot at any price point.

They're all solid and reliable. The gold nibbed ones are nice but you can get around 75-80% with a Metropolitan.

The two I keep hearing about are Platinum Cho Kuro and Sailor Kiwa Guro.

I have personal experience with the latter and as long as you let it dry for about 12 hours it's pretty resilient. It's also incredibly well behaved and I've left it in my pens for months without it causing problems.
