I love Tom’s Studio pens but the two Studio Pocket fountain pens I have BOTH have pretty terrible leakage problems. Yesterday I finally bit the bullet and got a full-sized Studio Fountain Pen, only because I don’t want to give up all my flex and semi-flex nibs from them, and that pen has a different converter.

And only now in writing this do I pause to consider that maybe I just got a bad batch of cartridges (not converters). Hmmm. Well. Perhaps I will write to the company and explain the PENDICAMENT. They’ll probably throw some converters into the package for me, they’re nice like that.

Also: I’m running a little low on Carbon Black so I’m trying Sketch Ink’s EMMA, which is green and mossy and full of win, I love it so much!

Today in brinelicious #stationary supplies, Tom's Studio has made a second round of Pickle Pens and is giving the US timezone folks a chance at them this time (last time they went on sale at 3am my time and were gone by 5am my time).

They just sent an email about pre-orders for the second round, I grabbed one (and am having it engraved with the first truly terrible pun that came to mind)

Tom’s Studio Wren pen that uses fountain pen ink: Great little pen. Not as eco-friendly as it could be given the weird plastic/cotton capillary ink system which is hard to clean/change, unles you spend $ on the carts. Overall nice and probably great for artists.

I’m trying something different that I got at the pen show. A Tom’s Studio Wren that uses fountain pen ink but isn’t a fountain pen. I’m hoping it works as a travel/pocket pen. Yes, I have pocket fountain pens but they can burp in the heat of a pocket.

It's that time of year again, wherein I make a promise to myself to spend more time making comics and then failing spectacularly a couple of days later.

BTW, this is inked with my new Tom's Studio Studio Fountain pen with Pro-flex (i.e. a zebra G-Pen) nib. It's excellent, and a Comix Review will be incoming soon. I hope.

Wie liebevoll verpackt kann ein Paket bitte sein?
