Noodlers

LinkTalking through his arse/in one ear and out the other.
My first try of Noodlers waterproof ink for fountain pens...a major discovery courtesy of Mattias Adolfson. The smudge is due to working on the unpleasant waxy coated paper in the Moleskine sketchbook... I wish they'd make 'em with decent paper.

This is great. The characters are awesome.

Aha! I was just going ask how he's able to use a normal fountain pen to do his magic. I think we're all going to be Mont Blancing and Noodling alla Adolfsson.

Another great set of characters and an entertaining illo.

The drawback is that it tends to dry a bit slower then original ink, I still get smudges due to my bad patients, great illo anyway

I like this a lot! Wouldn't have noticed the smudge if you didn't point it out. And yours is the first complaint I've heard on the moleskines... I'm going to stick to the Border's bound sketch books and the spiral bound ones from the grocery store.
