I have some unused tealight holders, thanks for that great idea, Kirsten. I notice so many fountain pen reviewers holding their pens angled....and I always think, do they not notice their ink flow is suffering?

@janetmccready8104 5 лет назад

I just watched your video, Im not using the straight pen, but have had sooooo much trouble getting the ink to flow in the manuscript pen set. I really listened to what you said, and tried dipping it in a little water, and checking the little metal pices on the end of the pen. and WA-LA! it worked. I was beginning to think the little ink catridges were empty, but something worked, thenk you.

That's brilliant, I am sooooo pleased I could help. Thanks Janet

@krystal3949 4 года назад

Hmm.. Thanks for this Kirsten, I actually have a similar issue and its also the Manuscript pen set. I tried dipping the nib with water but can't seem to have the ink flowing still :/ what could be the issue here? I am very new to this.. so honestly, I haven't a clue if my angle is even right. Would be great to hear back from you, thanks!

@Sinner1660 Год назад

Wait ahaa I thought I was damaging it if the pen thing splits. (don't know how you spell that T word. Tynes? Tines?) THANK YOU SO MUCH for this!

@Themoderncalligraphyco Год назад

Oh no!! The tines have to split, the more they do the thicker the line you make xx

@Sinner1660 Год назад

@@Themoderncalligraphyco Aye I have a different type of pen. I wrote in blackletter so... :) Thank you.

@imajyn8tive334 5 лет назад

@Themoderncalligraphyco 5 лет назад

thanks so much...they are inks that we've had made that are available on our website, or you could use daler rowney acrylic inks. Kirsten xx

@Themoderncalligraphyco 5 лет назад

Thanks so much. I use Daler Rowney Acrylic inks and I've also developed my own pigment inks too. My inks you can buy on my site.

Love this video. I am using hunt 101, and I thought about LEONARD EF principal. Which do you prefer for production work? BO *****. What is BEST INK,PAPER?

@Themoderncalligraphyco Год назад

Thank you. Hunt nibs are good, I like to work fairly large so the Leo 30 works for me as the Hunt 101 is more delicate. Rhodia pads are the best for practice paper, I love Fabriano 5 paper for 'best' and inks, my own brand of course! I have a selection of colours that are waterbased with a touch of acrylic, that allows them to flow well but dry water-proof. www.themoderncalligraphyco.com/nibs-inks-pens

What nib u used in this video

@rachhatton-taylor8433 3 года назад

Hello, I have an issue with my nib sometimes just dumping all the ink after I’ve dipped it in almost one go on the paper. What am I doing wrong please?

@damearstor2120 3 года назад

Usually it's caused by too much ink on your nib.Just slightly run the underside of the nib over the mouth of your ink bottle(or the side of your container to get rid of excess ink)

@jagdishsakhrani1193 3 года назад

Which nib are you using?

@Themoderncalligraphyco 3 года назад

Hi, it is a Principle EF nib which gives very fine harilines.

@nuhatahseen4933 4 года назад

What type of ink can be used ??

@Themoderncalligraphyco 4 года назад

Any waterbased ink. This is our own ink that we do sell on our site. www.themoderncalligraphyco.com or windsor and newton inks, Daler Rowney FW inks will all work too. Have fun x
