Episode 177: Pilot Custom 912 FA discussion. The art of the almost flex nib.

The Pentertainment Podcast

As I tumble farther down the comic art rabbit hole, Tom and I discuss using fountain pens for inking, particularly the Pilot Custom 912 with the FA soft 14kt gold nib. Plus, we talk about using fountain pen ink in artwork. Last, I share my epic 4-year master plan. We'd love to read your comments and answer your pen (and fish) questions on a future episode.

The famous holiday of trick-or-treating, lighting bonfires, and dressing up is upon us. Luxury Brands of America thinks that Benu's Hallowed Harvest is the perfect pen to celebrate the season.
This piece is crafted using a combination of dramatic black and traditional jack-o'-lantern colors to truly set the mood. And in true BENU style, it comes complemented with a dash of fire-like sparkles.
Produced as a limited edition with just 500 pens worldwide, each pen is supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity confirming its serial number, signed by BENU's owners. The Benu Hallowed Harvest will be available at all Benu pen dealers (including Goldspot) later in October.
