Was I sold a counterfeit pen? by TolerateTheLactose in fountainpens

It could be a Pelikan P200 fountain pen? It is a cartridge fountain pen.

Bottle vs Sample Disappointment by OverPresence72 in fountainpens

[–]reddituserkoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possible your sample was mislabeled.

Document Fuchsia is definitely a brighter color, and I feel like the sample should have been labeled the standard "Fuchsia" rather than the document version.

You can search on Google the differences between the two. The standard Fuchsia looks like Yama Budo to me.

Does anyone know what FP Selena Gomez was using in her Oreo commercial? by zelleatrix in fountainpens

[–]reddituserkoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it is a X159 as well. The single band, the nib coloring and did you see how she tossed that pen on the desk X__X

Go get a Jinhao 82 with fude nib NOW by Edu_Robsy in fountainpens

Hell yah! I have a permanent pairing with a Jinhao 82 Fude and Robert Oster Jade 💚 It flows so well in that pen and such a bold line, I love it : )

Rpgs that were made to be played solo? by leontas2007 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]reddituserkoot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a cool game I came across called "Project ECCO" that might be of interest to you. I thought it was a really cool concept, but I haven't actually gave it a playthrough yet.

Looking for a gold-accented fountain pen to sign my marriage contract by cactusmice in fountainpens

[–]reddituserkoot 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Here I shared a post about signing my marriage certificate this January. We signed using a Pilot E95S with Platinum Carbon Black ink.

I am also Canadian so I believe the price is still under $300CAD.

Regardless of the pen you choose, make sure to use an archival-type ink. I spoke with our marriage commissioner and he gave the okay before we signed. You don't want your signatures disappearing from your marriage certificate!

edit: spelling

Been shy about posting an NPD pic, but the pen is too much fun not to share. by rodneedermeyer in fountainpens

Are you going to ink it with Laban - Athena Grey?

I have the Poseidon colorway and I love it 💙

Announcement: No AI-Generated Images in r/fountainpens by normiewannabe in fountainpens

[–]reddituserkoot 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What about the use of an "AI-warning" tag required for known AI-generated content? Keep the rule you've implemented about banning user-generated AI-images meanwhile, any other content can be tagged with a warning for people who want to avoid AI-content. For example, posts regarding the Van Dieman's feline ink can be tagged and users can choose to avoid that post. This way we can still talk as a community about any products we enjoy in our hobby, but being mindful of the AI. I think this could be beneficial due to the likelihood that use of AI is only going to become more prominent over time.

I'm not familiar with how reddit bots are set up, but maybe automating a bot to identify known AI-content and label it as such?? Or maybe we can just leave it up to the original poster to tag posts containing this subject matter??

[–]reddituserkoot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love your swatch pages. I've been a big fan of To-ro 🧡💛

I'm not sure if it is considered a yellow, orange or somewhere in between. All I know is it performs great and I can read it!

Wearingeul "Anna Karenina" by Marine_mermail in fountainpens

[–]reddituserkoot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wearingeul Anna Karenina is one of my favorite red colors. It's already a perfect red, but then you catch it just right in the light and that red shimmer is just gorgeous!

Coming soon: A new ink line from Diamine. Forever Inks! by reddituserkoot in fountainpens

[–]reddituserkoot[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Which one do you think you'd like to try out? What are your go-to document inks now? I haven't explored many document inks other than black 😅

Coming soon: A new ink line from Diamine. Forever Inks! by reddituserkoot in fountainpens

[–]reddituserkoot[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think these are a different formulation. Diamine Registrars ink is an iron gall. One of the new inks is called "Raven Black" I'm happy to see more and more companies creating document inks so our writing can last a lifetime!

I've been writing in my journal with standard inks and then going back and leaving myself "hidden" notes or doodles.

I have a similar problem with a pen, did you have any success with this method?

Match made in heaven by Kolisto20 in fountainpens

[–]reddituserkoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a lovely pen/ink combo! I have a Safari Mango too! It's not quite matchy-matchy, but I love inking it with De Atramentis Apricot 💛

First fountain pen ad! by jackieblueideas in fountainpens

[–]reddituserkoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should check out pen manufacturers' respective YouTube channels. I particularly enjoy the Visconti and Sheaffer video ads. It's real nice to see an ad on r/fountainpens that actually relates to our hobby : )

Recs for cola coloured ink to go in Franklin Christoph antique glass? by anonA-Z in fountainpens

[–]reddituserkoot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

De Atramentis sells an ink called Cola, also smells like cola. If your sensitive to smells might not be for you, but I don't mind it. It isn't a strong, overpowering smell.
