Four pens, four inks, pick your champion (favorite).

1) A new TWSBI Demonstrator modified with a 120 year old Waterman 52 nib, fine point. KWZ's gold Iron-gall ink (starts light yellow, turns black after 30 seconds).

2) An actual 120 year old waterman 52 with broad nib. Diamine's Skull & Roses ink. This ink has a very unique sheen I've never seen in an ink.

3) A Pilot Falcon with extra food be nib. Diamine's Burnt Sienna ink.

4) Pilot Custom 912 with a modified nib (Mottishaw Spencerian Modification). Sailor Carbon Black pigment ink.

@freemo Looks like you get the most consistent linewidth with 3 but I find the grey ink from 4 most attractive. Have you used oblique pens or only straight ones?
