Hero (!?) Ox Horn fountain pen
A very unique and interesting fountain pen from my perspective.
Not 100% sure that this is actually made by the Hero brand (hence the question mark in the title). Nevertheless it is a pretty well made and fun fountain pen that I did enjoyed using.

Pilot Metropolitan Cocoon fountain pen
Another fountain pen from Pilot... not a new one obviously... but a pretty interesting one.
Now the burning question is... Is this a Metropolitan... or a Cocoon!?
I'll let you decide...

Moonman / Majohn C1 fountain pen
Can this be consider a "classic" yet? Coming from Moonman? Well, if is not a classic yet, is definitely one of their best demonstrators - in my opinion - to date. With the V1 version as a close second.
It did good this little thing... it got me a nice scribble that I really like :).

Photo Session Pt.2 - Breakdown and photoshoot with final pictures
And here is the second part of my "photo adventure" after a little bit of an absence. I kept it to only 2 parts since I don't think the first one was very welcomed and there were no opinions is you wanted to see the developing process so I did not wanted to bore you with that process as well.
The pictures did not turned out as great and I think the issues was that I used a new type of developer that I did not used before and I got some grainy results. I won't use it again for this specific film, but I will buy some CineStill black and white and try it out on that one - it better turn out better since I used the CineStill Monobath developer... I hope they are made for each other :).
Some turned out interesting though - definitely a few of them are great ideas for some future scribbles :). I hope...
Anyway, enjoy and I will see you tomorrow for a Scribble session and back to regular schedule with next week.

Photo Session - film and camera preparing - part 1
Hello, hello... in the new 2024 year.
A little bit of visual changes here and there, but pretty much the same.
The only big change this time around is that I am starting the year by introducing one of my other passions, other than fountain pens - photography. And this time around specifically, film photography.
Today I will only be showing how I usually prepare for a photo shoot - loading my film, presenting the camera and in the next session (or two - your decision) I will be showing the actual process and go out and shoot some things, hopefully nice things.
I'm basically looking for new material to get inspired by and make drawings out of them :).
So in a way, photography and scribbling away do go hand in had for me and it is part of my artistic process - if you can call it that. When I am out of ideas, I go out and find some more.
