It's going to be another stressful week at work staring Monday tomorrow... 😢

Might as well make productive use of what remains of the weekend.

I tried to maintain the picket fence look as much as possible.

As always, walnut ink and a brause banzug 1.5mm nib.

Anyone here play Total War Warhammer? 😊

Anyway, for the nib, I used a 1.5mm brause bandzug.

As for the ink -- a funny story. Long ago I bought a bottle of Private Reserve Ebony Brown. A month after using, it developed a noticeable olive tinge. As the months went by, the ink started turning green. Eventually it 'stabilized' into a nice dark green shade.

Back to walnut ink and 1mm brause bandzug nib 😊

Generic red ink. I forgot what brand. The label on the jar has long since peeled away.

I tried to fit as much of Lady Macbeth's soliloquy... but alas, I ran out of space.

For this piece, I used a 1.5mm Brause Banzug nib.
I also intentionally watered down the Walnut Ink to highlight the contrasts caused by the ink pooling.

Been re-playing Total War: Napoleon lately. I thought I'd transcribe the lines from the opening video.
