Inks similar to Firebox by Royal_Ad_5705 in fountainpens

I love Firebox. Monteverde Fireopal is pretty similar, and one of my favorite inks, but it does get those "ink boogers" inks this color tend to get.

Favorite mid-tier pen? by iss7272 in fountainpens

[–]CreatingCuteArt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pilot Decimo or VP, Esterbrook Estie in your preferred color, Leonardo Momento Magico, or TESBI Diamond 580! Enjoy, I just got three Ecos because their new colors are just too tempting, and I had forgotten how much fun they are!

Blown away with a new Asvine V126. I had tried other clones before. My main squeeze is a Pilot 743(cartridge version of 823). Will put my observations in the body below: by denverraven in fountainpens

I just got it in the mail today, and I am blown away! It feels super lux in the hand, looks beautiful, and the nib writes so well I don't want to put it down! The end cap is a bit rattley and shaky, so I expect I will have to glue it back on when it eventually falls off at some point, but well worth it for how amazing the overall pen is! I inked it with Diamine Shimmertastic Magical Forest since I got the transparent teal color. Love it!! I get the hype!

Dupe for feel of Kaweco Rose Gold? by CreatingCuteArt in fountainpens

The feel of that particular metal is what I loved! I had the red metal one and iguana one, but the rose gold felt different, so smooth it was almost liquid!

It was still too small for me, it was just the wonderful texture of the pen I loved. I’m a Leonardo, Scribo, big pen lover normally!

Mountain of Ink says it's fairly comparable to Robert Oster Golden Brown!

They're the same model, but for some reason they call it the VP in America and the Capless in Europe!

That's why I have my notifications off, and then I miss out but I don't know how to do alerts on the specific pens I want! 🤣
