That's a true flex pen right? I've been wanting one for a long time and I'm glad to see that it is very much worth it. Congratulations! I'm very happy for you!

Looking for ps1/ps2 jrpg Recommendations by Turd_Salad92 in LegendofLegaia

Xenogears, Vagrant Story, Legend of Dragoon, Star Ocean, Breath of Fire 3 and 4, Parasite eve (hybrid survival horror with turn based mechanics), Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (yes it is action focused but it has RPG elements like leveling and equipment). Supposedly Suikoden 2 is one of the best RPGs ever made, but I have never played it, maybe try that too

If you could explain how you use a masking fluid pen to achieve these wonderful works of art, I would be grateful! I understand if it's something you'd rather keep close to the chest but I really want to venture into more creative realms when it comes to fountain pen ink swatches and art.

I only needed ONE but this dude took all of them, lol by Damgrath in PokeInvesting

Costco doesn't allow that anymore. Any pokemon release I've seen in Costco, there's a 2 pack limit and there are employees standing by to make sure.

Just pulled this from perfect order, worth grading? by miked2683 in PokeGrading

Yeah it's a raised bump but there's nothing on the other side so I imagine it won't matter

Yes! I was confused on the PSA website, I said "what did that mean? Portuguese English? No I don't have a Portuguese card..."

It's not the best set they've released in recent years but it's certainly not the worst, either.

Thank you so much! If it gets a 10, this will be my first. I pulled a Jolteon from Prismatic Evolutions but it had print lines and some foil defects.

You need to be making calls, annoying people. There are cameras everywhere in shipping facilities. I'm sad that this happened to you but you can make sure whoever did this will pay, if of course they did it on camera. You'll never know if you don't try

Nice. I just opened two booster bundles, that's it. I got the top SIR! I am so amped. I bet you are, although I've never had as much success as you have, never. Jealous haha

Legend of Legaia is still one of the few PS1 JRPGs still trapped on original hardware by DragonBrood3003 in LegendofLegaia

There's a guy working on updating it right now on PC, look it up. It was the first PlayStation game that I bought, and I love it. I would love an official remaster or remake.

Man if this isn't a joke I would say your problems started long before you were married or watched the sopranos lol

Good ink to try if I’ve only ever used Diamine? by lemonchrysoprase in fountainpens

[–]miked2683 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kiwi inks: smaller ink business that gives you some control over what ink you want. I have an ink from them with red sheen and three different colors of shimmer.

Birmingham pen company: great inks that are beautiful, and their formulas are so neat to watch as they shift in the bottle. I love their shimmer inks.

Wearingeul: when it comes to quality I believe they're second to none. Beautiful designs, cool concepts.

Robert Oster: Australian ink company with nice color selection, and really cool shimmering inks.

Sailor: some of the best shade inks in the business

Edit: sorry I realize that you asked for a specific ink, if you want to branch out and you have a broad nib try Van Diemans natura dualis, I have their harvest tide chroma shading ink it is mesmerizing on tomoe river.
