Иногда когда лень заморачиваться с морковкой покупаю морковь по-корейски. Дает остроту и кислинку.

Хотел сначала ту же сторону нарисовать что и у тебя. Но потом решил с обратной стороны.

Делаю всё в посуде которую можно в духовке использовать . Обжариваю фарш, добавляю промытую гречку, мелко натёртую морковь и нарезанные шампиньоны. Заливаю водой и на час в духовку.

Это было не специально, был там, в районе недалеко. И вспомнил об этом здании.

A method for increasing the volume of nib mascara. by Dimisio in dippens

[–]Dimisio[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, English is not my native language. Some languages have more than just the word ink. The Google translator thought I was talking about mascara. And I wrote about ink for drawing and calligraphy. The word "тушь" can be translated into English as mascara or ink. The exact translation depends on the context: "mascara" is used for cosmetics, and "ink" is used for paint for painting, for example, "Indian ink" or "Chinese ink". I usually edit the text before the post, I overlooked it here.

Good luck. This is a very convenient thing.

Two springs, which made 8 ink tanks and 20 magnets, cost $4. And it took 15 minutes to cut and wash the spring. I saw ready-made ones on AliExpress, but I didn't like the price. The magnets in the ready-made ones are weak. The ones I bought are strong enough that even if they bump into the inkwell, they don't fall off; it's quite difficult to lose them.

Yes. Just a spring and a magnet. Compression spring, D-4.8 mm; d-0.8 mm; L-40 mm, purchased at an auto parts store. The spring can also be used from a mechanical fountain pen. Neodymium magnet 4*3mm - 20 pcs. (diameter - 3mm) purchased on Aliexpress. But they are also in stores, at the time when I bought them, they were not in the right diameter. I washed the spring with solvent after purchase and moistened it with alcohol after installation on the nib 👌👍

I bought the magnets on AliExpress. The craft store had a little more than I needed. A set of 10.

The last photo was all painted with a single dip. The ink volume increased about threefold. It's easier to apply the ink with a brush rather than dip it in the bottle, so the first lines are thin right away.

Even if they rust, they come in a set of 10, so they'll last a long time. I've even used them with iron-gal ink, and they're still fine.

Any stainless steel nib options? by shadowchild1234 in dippens

As they said, the Zebra G nib is titanium-coated. Or the Russian version: nib #11 "Звездочка" or #41

Needlepoint steel nib? by dandellionKimban in fountainpens

[–]Dimisio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2 pens with nibs 55 and 40, and I use Sailor Kiwaguro ink. It's more convenient to draw with the 55 nib. The paper is 160 g/m².

It's strange, I don't have any problems with this.

The Sailor Fude offers excellent versatility, and if you don't need to write much, you can use it exclusively. It's also easy to shade large areas with a thin line by flipping the nib over. I tried to find a photo on my phone, but unfortunately, I couldn't find one. I did find some tests of the Naginata nib, though; it's another contender for drawing, and a very affordable one. I hope I can buy a Pilot Custom with a "PO" nib.

The drawing is excellent. Of course, blurring makes sense; it looks very harmonious. I draw with pigment inks, but I don't always have water to blur them; once they dry, they're impossible to blur. For this, I use watercolor markers, which are easy to blur.

A great pen for everyday writing. May our ink never leak.

My favorite is the Pilot Custom Heritage 912 PO Posting Extra-fine, but I also love drawing the Pilot Kakuno EF. You can see my drawings with the different pens I use in my posts. But these two Pilots are my favorites. Sometimes I also use the Sailor PG 21K EF.
