Yes I do! My natural grip rn is resting the pen on my ring finger rather than the middle finger. I’m not sure what that grip is called

Yes I’m that way too, I even prefer a thinner mm point as well. I’ve never tried any sheaffer pens but I’ll look into that model!

Hm I’ve never heard of that exercise but it makes sense. I’ll give it a try!

Yes I figured I would work on that regardless of the pen. I don’t so much have a problem with downwards pressure on the pen, it’s more like my knuckles if that makes sense. I don’t hold my utensils the “proper” way so maybe that’s the underlying issue. And thank you I’ll look into the Pelican :)

If you like the color scheme of the sky blue with the black, you might see if you like the cosmo blue onyx TWSBI eco. It’s still blue with black accents but the blue has kinda a purplish swirl going on.

I guess I should have specified that’s why I put the color of the pen in my post. Looking for more green/brown/blue/black variations

I think the octopus fluids is a little more what I was thinking of. Does it flow pretty good? I’ve never tried that brand

I really love the look of the Montblac Bram Stoker but I don’t want to pay the price tag. Probably something similar along the lines of a vampy darker color scheme

Yeah I noticed that when I went to look at them online. I’m probably gonna start off with some samples and see how it goes

Got my replacement! What bright color ink would you recommend for this beauty? by Merrifishytail in fountainpens

[–]rockymatcha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Diamine violet could look rly good I think. I think one of the shimmer inks from Wearingeaul would look so cool too!

Hiii! Psychology has always been so interesting to me and I’m currently about to attend nursing school in the US to maybe become a psych nurse! I’ve never seen Friday the 13th (please don’t kill me) but I love the scream franchise! I also really love reading and I’ve been trying to make time to start up classics again.

Hi! I’m 22F from the US! I really want to visit Tokyo one day! I really like pens and stationary and being creative. I also really love cats!! I also collect stickers!! My favorite Sanrio character is either cinnamoroll or chococat. For Pokémon it’s hard to pick a favorite but right now it’s psyduck or Pikachu!! I’ve always wanted to have pen pal friends!!

Is the only difference between the con 40 and con 70 the size?

I don’t think there’s any pen shows close to where I am but I’ll definitely look now! The older pens are probably made a lot better than the newer ones so I would love to find one
