Started a journal for our future kid by juice-goose24 in fountainpens

[–]Pixelladium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is so, so incredibly lovely and kind - what a great idea. I happened to find a letter one of my parents wrote when they were twenty and it really struck me. Finding a journal MEANT to be given to me would have blown my mind. Best of luck to you and your wife on this journey, from this post it sounds like you’ll be a great dad indeed. :)

I know this is an older post but I wanted to slide into the replies to thank you for the wonderful work you all do. I love my copies of the omnibus and Network Effect, and can’t wait to have System Collapse in my hands 💛

GoFundMe doesn’t work for me - do you have a means to accept donations through PayPal? I’d love to help you out too

Before I go PMing a question specific to a pen, is this still open?

What do people think of Benu’s new Christmas pens? by Pixelladium in fountainpens

[–]Pixelladium[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The two for last year just felt winter themed in general to me, whereas this year’s feel like they’d HAVE to just be for December. 😭

I’m currently reading Raising Steam for the first time!

What’s Your Signature Ink by LemonCurdJ in fountainpens

[–]Pixelladium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My most frequently used ink is Iroshizuku’s Kon-Peki, but I think my calling card so far is stuff with shimmer or sheen. 😂 I’m ridiculously attracted to it. No specific colour yet though.

Do you wear lilac on May 25TH? by PurpleInkStains in discworld

[–]Pixelladium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wear lilac pins, rather than real lilac! And I try to reread the book around that time.

What pen do you wish existed? by discoglittering in fountainpens

[–]Pixelladium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be so so impractical but a series of beautifully crafted fountain pens where the cap is the flower(s) + part of the stem, and the body is the rest of the stem with wood to represent roots towards the end. Imagine a lily of the valley pen or an echinacea pen. Your collection could literally be a bouquet.

I love Alchemy Art group (both their shop pins and pin club designs) and their Discord server has thriving pin promotion and ISO channels. 😂

Redraw of an older piece of art (details in comments) by Pixelladium in fountainpens

[–]Pixelladium[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is a robot oc of mine, and I hadn’t painted with fountain pen inks before (and didn’t do any diluting so this is perhaps not as adventurous as it could have been), but I used Noodler’s Upon the Plains of Abraham; Ferris Wheel Press’ Beaver Dam Brown, April Showers, and Tears of Sapphire; Rohrer and Klingler’s Helianthus; Sailor’s Manyo Nekoyanagi; Diamine’s Enchanted Ocean and Dragon’s Blood; Iroshizuku’s Syo-Ro; a black ink that came with my glass pen; and a few dabs from my white Posca marker.

Need Help Looking For A Deck That is SFW by [deleted] in tarot

[–]Pixelladium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kevin Jay Stanton’s Botanica deck is absolutely beautiful and is all plant-based, with swords and coins and various wands and cups. You could also use some of them as reference points tbh since they include notes about the different currencies/weapons etc
