Brush lettering with Pilot Custom 912 Falcon Nib

Doing some "calligraphy" style lettering lately. I'm using the Pilot Custom 912 Fountain Pen with the FA Falcon Nib on Tomoe River paper. The ink I wrote in is Iroshizuku Murakami Shikibu, a wet ink that is just divine. The outer drawing is Tombow Brush Pens, Watercolor pencils and the fantastic Platinum Carbon Ink pen with the Extra Fine nib.

The guys at Nibs.com set and optimized the Pilot Custom 912 at purchase for no extra charge. Love them. Wrote them a little thank you note below.

The Platinum Carbon Ink pen is, for the money, the best art purchase. The ink is waterproof and can draw on watercolor and not smear. What a great thing!!
