- Purchased at Texas Art on Montrose.
- Faber-Castell
India ink
brushpen. - Ridiculous glowing-LED pen handed out to IPTPS'05 participants.
- Good ol' #2.
- Regular highlighters are too broad for the tiny lines of text in my 2-up paper printouts, so I keep these Pocket Accents.
- Double-pointed Sharpie™.
- Staedtler mechanical pencils (0.7mm and 0.5mm). Not shown: Pentel Twist-Erase™ mechanical pencil, which I use more often.
- The fountain pens.
- Pelikan GO! filled with Pelikan Brillant-Grün ink. Medium point.
- Hero ‘529’ with hooded nib and aerometric fill, fine point. Filled with Aurora black: pricey, but BLACK. My most versatile and favorite FP.
- Pelikan Pelikano student pen. Medium, filled with no-name red ink cartridge (which is actually impressively red once it gets going). Writes almost as well as the pricier GO!
- Pilot Varsity FP, in blue, Japanese model (gift from ctate).

Do not mock the LED pen. Us techies like writing in the dark.

evilginger009: I got it through a friend several years ago; it's the older model, which is hard to find now. The redesigned Pelikano is less elusive; you can get it at Swisher Pens (this direct link may or may not work; their search function works pretty well too).

Just passing through! nice collection! I have a Hero and that student pen along with about 10 other FP's .. I like the Hero the BEST! I cut the student pen's nib to do calligraphy..works really well! cheers.
