Hi Peter, thank you for being fair and honest in your video. From what it sounds like, the hard starts you are experiencing is due to the manufacturer, in this case, Aurora, overpolishing the tip of the nib. There's an actual term for it called "baby's bottom," believe it or not. This is an issue that can sometimes lead to a dissatisfying experience with a luxury fountain pen. I'm sorry the one we sent you had this issue. In cases like this, we ask our customers to send the pen back to our office (we'll send you a pre-paid label) so we can professionally have the nib adjusted to remedy the issue. Sometimes, the problem can remedy itself as the nib "breaks in," but we'd rather get it writing (or drawing) better sooner than later. Love your drawing! Yes, Waterman was an excellent choice of ink - totally safe for this type of pen. Getting your fingers inky is a badge of honor in the fountain pen community. :-)
Awww how professional and nice of you to try and save your shitty pen business 😂😬 You would think for such a price you'd have the pen tip tested for quality purpose.
It's a weird thing for me to be sent something so nice like this and then to ultimately say it's not so nice. But I just want to stay honest and transparent when it comes to things like this I guess, even if it does feel kind of ungrateful or something. I do want to thank www.goldspot.com for sending this extravagant pen and making this video possible, do be sure to check them out, there are so many pens there, very cool for shopping and even just window shopping. I hope you understand how I feel about this pen; it definitely feels luxurious and lush, and I'm sure it would be a great addition to anyone's collection, but by the time I was finishing this drawing, I was wishing I was using almost any other of my pens. I had to periodically keep twisting the reservoir piston to put a little more pressure on the ink to keep the flow consistent, or as consistent as I could get it. It was just a little bit frustrating when it came to the actual line drawing.
Hey peter, check this out. They end up having the same issue in their own video overview of the pen, the guy had to do some serious scribbling to get the ink flowing again right around the 6 and a half minute point ruclips.net/video/vjbSqF9Oe6E/видео.htmlm35s
I believe that modern pens are designed to have enough flow for writing, but not enough to sustain extensive drawing like you do. A nibmeister can tune pens to write wetter, and you could also potentially use a wetter ink.
Correct me if I‘m wrong but I‘ve heard that you basically have to use it a lot first or you can get some special sandpaper to sand the nib a bit and then the ink should flow easier.
this was a pen unboxing. i’m so confused why i can’t get through 95% of the videos i watch, but felt so relaxed and genuinely enjoyed this. great video. new sub.
You can't get through 95% of the videos you watch. See a specialist, why does this have so many likes. This is such a weird statement. Like, I hate that this has worked me up but it should honestly make you feel somewhat uncomfortable. If I went to a restaurant with you and said that the meal was great and I'm glad I finished it because 95% of the shit I eat, I can't finish nor digest.
@@MrBEEOUTCH just saw this comment (only two years late lmao) but it’s probably because i have adhd? i really don’t think it’s a weird comment whatsoever and the fact you got worked up over it is far more strange. i also think that comparing a short attention span to not being able to digest any food you eat is quite a reach but that’s just me.
@@avocados9110 me not thinking about having too much anxiety from reading this comment before he spilled ink in the video actually gave me too much anxiety because i read your comment about being anxious from not knowing that he spilled the ink but knowing because he pointed that out in the comment Simplified: i didn't get anxious from the comment but did when i read yours
I find nearly all modern pens to skip as this one does. The feed never seems to convey ink fast enough for me. The reason, I think, is that a pen that has generous ink flow can easily splatter ink about if you wave your hands about. To keep this from happening, modern companies make the ink flow stingier. Back in the old days people knew not to wave their hands about while holding a pen. That has been forgotten by the post ball point pen generation, so we need to relearn it. 600 dollars is a lot of money for a pen that skips. 60 dollars is a lot of money for a pen that skips, too.
This is true, as far as my knowledge goes I agree with you. I have experienced the ink splatter you're speaking of a couple times, with vintage pens like the one you sent me and the one I bought at the pen show. Really, after you do that once or twice, you learn quick and it stops being a real problem.
Expensive pens very often have “baby’s bottom” issue. Thats when nibmeister made the pen oversmooth. Just take the pen to the store or to a nibmeister and he will make it write. There are a lot of juicy nice writers, various manufacturers, wetter inks and etc. If the feather is bad or defective, you can change it or use warranty in the store. P.S sorry for my english mistakes I’m not native speaker.
Shiranova In my opinion the Lamy 2000 is just perfect pen. Juicy lines, easy to clean, gold nib, piston filler, very smooth, very comfortable.I’m using mine for 2 years and never had even one skip or any issue. The price is about 155$. If you look for cheaper pens, buy lamy safari, lamy joy with stub nibs and etc. I have 4 pens from lamy and never had issues with any of them. P.s. and again sorry form my english mistakes
I approve of your sandwich making. Like the high mayo content. I loved the folding of the ham from opposite directions for a balanced layer of meat. The iceberg lettuce was plentiful, for a crisp and cool texture. And the mustard spread with your finger? Brilliant. Well done, sir.
Peter Draws I do this out of pure laziness. I mean why wash a spoon when you can just use your finger? I’m glad to know others also use this life hack.
Mitch H. While I approve of the sandwich, being from the South with abundant fresh tasty tomatoes available it really needed the extra juiciness of a ripe red tomato slice or two to compliment this masterpiece.

Don't worry about being too negative, peter! Negative honesty is always better than positive lies. Plus, as viewers who draw with pens we appreciate the honest feedback :)
Honestly, $600? I get that it's limited and italian, but it doesn't LOOK like a $600 pen, it isn't PACKAGED like a $600 pen, it also doesn't look like it writes/draws like a $600 pen should. The line quality isn't great, like the ink doesn't flow very well, it's super inconsistent. I dunno, dude. I am reminded of that video you shared of that pen expo a while back, and so many of those pens looked beautiful which is definitely the first step towards owning a luxury-priced pen, this one.... not so much.
i think at a certain price range quality doesn't matter anymore. The only reason rich people buy pens like this, is because they are expensive. Like "i have a pen in my pocket that costs more than you spend on food every month, suck it lowlife"
Jetpack Werewolf that doesn't really apply in the fountain pen community as we tend to dislike pens that are of poor quality and doesn't really write. After all a own has one job, to write.
585 for what looks like to me anyway a plastic pen with a gold tip glorified by a made in Italy stamp? Why is this pen not made of like jade or crystal or some other material justifying it's ridiculous cost?
It's not $600 because it's worth that much, it's $600 because somebody will pay that much for it. Exploiting human follies for personal benefit is a cornerstone of capitalism.
Yeah, it;s literally just like a 5$ pen or a 1$ pen, just with a couple of extra zeros... Why would anyone pay such a price for a fucking pen is really beyond me
Hey, Peter! Would you ever review or draw with the Pilot Metropolitan? It is 15 dollars average on Amazon or Jetpens, or whatever... I can understand if you don't want to buy one with your own money, but I just wanted to mention it. It would be quite the contrast to this video and I have heard that it is the best beginner pen and the best pen for the money. :) Love the video, and PLEASE keep being transparent with your audience!
I think with these super expensive, high-quality fountain pens, you kind of need to break them in -- kinda like an expensive pair of long-lasting boots
Just found this video randomly and oh my god you are automatically my favourite person Peter, you really don't look past the smallest of details and you're so nice about everything, keep doing what you're doing, cos I'll keep watching ❤
At first, I was like “wow that’s a very plain pen,” but now, I realize how much I like how simple it is. At first glance, it’s just a plain ol pen. It’s the tiny details when you actually study it and it’s truly brilliant.
I don't even draw, and I hate writing, but here I am, watching you use a 600 dollar pen, doodling on paper and now I want to buy a fountain pen. I love you too.
>Video showed up on recommended >Watched the first few min out of curiosity thinking it was a meme >Usually would lose interest at this point but the ASMR voice had be listening and watching while I got ready for bed and even got me to sleep God Bless brotha stay passionate
Peter, I enjoy watching your videos. A note for you about your issues with your new Aurora Optima pen: It appears to me that you might have been holding your pen with a slightly “twisted” angle at the beginning of the stroke. That might have kept the slit between the tines of your new nib from contacting the paper and momentarily starved it of ink at the beginning of the stroke. If that is your typical way of holding the pen, you should notice that with use, the nib will begin to “break in” and adapt to how you hold it against the paper, both angle and rotation. You can speed up that “break in” period by using a slightly “toothier” paper while you get used to new pen. I also believe that the nib included with this pen is more flexible than your typical less costly pens. That will allow you to create lines with varying weights by slightly increasing your downward pressure on downstrokes. Bottom line: use it for a while before you form your final opinion.
Oh Peter, what a great thinker you are. You think and then say. You’re so good at putting out your thoughts like the ink on the paper. I admire your thinking skills. Teach me to think
Wow I just found this channel; that drawing absolutely blew me away. I really connect to this. I haven't drawn since high school because I just did it to get someone's approval. I would always draw cloud shapes and a shitload of successive lines in my schoolwork because I would have panic attacks it helped relieve stress. I got to rewatch now to catch what he was actually saying haha.
I don't understand.. why is it so expensive? Because if you look at the close ups you see there are some flaws like plastic bits sticking out, not really smooth, and the letter engravings are poorly done... it is not that well made and it is made from plastic. I'm sure I can find way better quality and better looking fountain pens for under $100
Bram 1) limited edition - (perceived) scarcity increases value 2) solid gold nib. Aurora is a really fine manufacturer, it's bizarre that this pen's performance was lacklustre.
I'm glad you smell this stuff because the websites descriptions never tell me what its going to smell like and honestly that's usually a deciding factor for me when buying just about anything really.
I love the way you draw, cuz I draw in a similar way but it’s my own style. You were doing soft round lines, I like to cut corners and make mine sharp with a lot more. I subbed. Love your vids
I enjoyed both the review and the video. Beautiful drawing. It seems like you drew this wherever the pen took you, and I tend to like drawings like that the most if that is the case. Subscribed now
Aeon Invictus I might give them a go if they have cheaper models. I never really got into fountain/dip pens too much. I'm just a stubborn micron loyalist. 😊
A pen like this one is more for signing important documents, such as your seventh house purchase or the purchase of several shares of a high end business, two very *rich* applications, but just an example of what you might use a $600 pen for.
every pen I had, had some "break in" time. Depending how you use your pen - for drawing or writing, how much pressure you put, what angle you write, pen's tip polishes the way you stress it. And here comes the whole metallurgy science - flexibility, sturdiness, ink flow characteristics on that particular metal. You should see in manual what kind of ink do manufacturer recommend. And yes, as was mentioned - these pens are optimized for writing and expression of handwriting, not drawing. Because they are status symbols and collectible items to be used on signing something worth future, millions or billions.
I am glad you mention that on the second line and continuing it still gave you problems I find price performance only increases to a certain degree some of my cheapest pens write well compared to my more expensive pens my favorite pen is just over 40 dollars and it writes as lovely as I like it to so its nice you didn't compliment it to justify its 600 price tag cause you could have but you didn't :D appreciate the fairness and honesty
yeah that's totally what he said hhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaahhahahahaa
I CAN tell you the GOLD nib is there to make your pen slide easier over the surface. I use gold needles in my cross stitch work. They glide almost effortlessly through the fabric. 😉
I more often than not fucking hate RUclips for putting videos of creators that I never seen and would never want to see on my front page. But, you, sir, are entertaining to watch.
+1 for the Pilot Metro, but also if you want an even more affordable option the Platinum Preppy is also a good choice and gets the job done just as well
i'm italian. When you put made in italy on something and say"this is hand made in italy boyz"people are like OMG. I hate how this is used in marketing. Just because it's made in Italy doesn't mean is good. it can be trash just like any other product. I don't know why but people judge so hard because of nationality these days
Very nice video! I wasted much of my youth trying to either find the right cartooning pen or master the technique of using a steel nib dip-pen, because I like a bit of variation in the line that felt-tips just won't deliver. I finally discovered that a good fountain pen is a thing of joy. Personally I'd recommend a Pelikan like the M800 (I share your preference for a thicker-body pen) for the right amount of flex, but Aurora pens are good too, although stiffer. Enjoy your pen!
Anything with the word Italy on it is over !!!!9000!!!!% it value in cost. You literally, quite literally CAN NOT pay for anything Italian without drawing blood.
This is the first video I've seen for this channel and honestly at first I was wondering how the hell this guy has so many followers but then he started drawing and he's really good.
Posh pens are a little like fancy cars - they need a but of running in. I was given a Yard O Led 23 years ago and for the first few months it was horrible. But it soon started to write like a dream and it is one of the most important things I own (although I did manage to pull the nib out by accident last year, but it still works beautifully). PS been watching you almost since the beginning of your channel and my 13 year daughter and I still think you're amazing. In fact I posted a reply on Quora a few days ago about what makes someone talented, and I wrote about you! (Oh no, this may be starting to sound creepy 😆)!

Yeah this was critically underwhelming. For 600 I'd expect you to be able to draw on the moon just by holding it up to the sky.
You're paying for the limited edition flex nib. Gold flexible nibs cost alot of money to develop but $600 is a bit too much maybe $450-500.
i think at a certain price range quality doesn't matter anymore. The only reason rich people buy pens like this, is because they are expensive. Like "i have a pen in my pocket that costs more than you spend on food every month, suck it lowlife"

Minty Graceou are you thinking about getting 1? Just go for it if you can.
basicsyphilis8 Oh yes I am in a week or two! They seem very nice.
That is truly amazing how he can just sit there and have the patience to create works of art like that off the top of his head. Wow
*That plot twist in the end tho*
I find it very relaxing watching you draw perfect lines and create such beautiful art. I'd love to see more of that kind of thing.
I think with these super expensive, high-quality fountain pens, you kind of need to break them in -- kinda like an expensive pair of long-lasting boots
Could be
That's certainly true if you use a good fountain pen for writing. It might be even more so for drawing.
Good drawing, Peter.
Just found this video randomly and oh my god you are automatically my favourite person Peter, you really don't look past the smallest of details and you're so nice about everything, keep doing what you're doing, cos I'll keep watching ❤
Do a $600 flower review next.
At first, I was like “wow that’s a very plain pen,” but now, I realize how much I like how simple it is. At first glance, it’s just a plain ol pen. It’s the tiny details when you actually study it and it’s truly brilliant.
@@tonysponsler6795 hey, I just like how it looks-the simplistic beauty of it
with all respect, but the blue plastic i assume looks really cheap.
Probably resin or something
I don't even draw, and I hate writing, but here I am, watching you use a 600 dollar pen, doodling on paper and now I want to buy a fountain pen.
I love you too.
I literally thought he was just gonna scribble and test it out but he turned it into awesomeness
True, I was pretty confused in the beginning but was mesmarized in the latter part of the bideo
The vibe you give off really makes me enjoy watching your videos. Thank you!
>Video showed up on recommended
>Watched the first few min out of curiosity thinking it was a meme
>Usually would lose interest at this point but the ASMR voice had be listening and watching while I got ready for bed and even got me to sleep
God Bless brotha stay passionate
The nicest pen I own is a G2 or a paper mate. I don’t draw either. Yet, here I am binge watching pen reviews.
That art is amazing! Thought you were just messing about at the beginning lol!
Peter, I enjoy watching your videos.
A note for you about your issues with your new Aurora Optima pen:
It appears to me that you might have been holding your pen with a slightly “twisted” angle at the beginning of the stroke. That might have kept the slit between the tines of your new nib from contacting the paper and momentarily starved it of ink at the beginning of the stroke.
If that is your typical way of holding the pen, you should notice that with use, the nib will begin to “break in” and adapt to how you hold it against the paper, both angle and rotation.
You can speed up that “break in” period by using a slightly “toothier” paper while you get used to new pen.
I also believe that the nib included with this pen is more flexible than your typical less costly pens. That will allow you to create lines with varying weights by slightly increasing your downward pressure on downstrokes.
Bottom line: use it for a while before you form your final opinion.
First video im watching of yours
first impression
your a maniac
i love it
MaxIsEpic This was sponsored lol
Oh Peter, what a great thinker you are. You think and then say. You’re so good at putting out your thoughts like the ink on the paper. I admire your thinking skills. Teach me to think
1:07 When I open a pack of Yu Gi Oh cards
Wow I just found this channel; that drawing absolutely blew me away. I really connect to this. I haven't drawn since high school because I just did it to get someone's approval. I would always draw cloud shapes and a shitload of successive lines in my schoolwork because I would have panic attacks it helped relieve stress. I got to rewatch now to catch what he was actually saying haha.
I don't understand.. why is it so expensive? Because if you look at the close ups you see there are some flaws like plastic bits sticking out, not really smooth, and the letter engravings are poorly done... it is not that well made and it is made from plastic. I'm sure I can find way better quality and better looking fountain pens for under $100
Bram 1) limited edition - (perceived) scarcity increases value 2) solid gold nib. Aurora is a really fine manufacturer, it's bizarre that this pen's performance was lacklustre.
I'm glad you smell this stuff because the websites descriptions never tell me what its going to smell like and honestly that's usually a deciding factor for me when buying just about anything really.
I love the way you draw, cuz I draw in a similar way but it’s my own style. You were doing soft round lines, I like to cut corners and make mine sharp with a lot more. I subbed. Love your vids
OMG DUDE A VID OVER 10 MINS WITHOUT HALF THE VIDEO BEING ADS! I’m subscribing
I was watching a JoJo piano tutorial, how did I get here?
Also same like how
sono chino pen review
KaeShirA oh my god I love this
You were expecting a JoJo related recommendation, but it was me youtube algorithm!
I enjoyed both the review and the video. Beautiful drawing. It seems like you drew this wherever the pen took you, and I tend to like drawings like that the most if that is the case. Subscribed now
For 600 dollars that thing better be made out of adamantium.
Aeon Invictus that's what I'm saying! How you gonna charge 600 dollars for something as cheap as plastic!
Aeon Invictus I might give them a go if they have cheaper models. I never really got into fountain/dip pens too much. I'm just a stubborn micron loyalist. 😊
except the part that's gold, you mean?
Wouldn't adamantium be too strong? Is it flexible enough to write with?
@@austintrigloff9562 I think he means for the body and obviously he was joking about the adamantium part
A pen like this one is more for signing important documents, such as your seventh house purchase or the purchase of several shares of a high end business, two very *rich* applications, but just an example of what you might use a $600 pen for.
Dang is this a new personality of The Horde from Split, looks like James Macavoy with a Bob Ross wig
Looking for a James McAvoy comment. Man has similar facial features and expressions
This probably the most authentic review in the history of the internet. On any product.
He looks just like a doctor and sounds like one too😂
He looks like Crainer
Most doctors aren't mouth breathers. . . .creepy.
He sounds like a young James Spader, who would later become old James Spader and a TV doctor.
I love how there is some education underneath all this comedy. Well done on another great video. You have a great talent and it’s not just with art!!
Hey can I borrow a pen to do my my notes
F*ck off Austin I won't lend you my pen, you already lost my car!!!!!!!!
Jamyl Hurtado lmao
every pen I had, had some "break in" time. Depending how you use your pen - for drawing or writing, how much pressure you put, what angle you write, pen's tip polishes the way you stress it. And here comes the whole metallurgy science - flexibility, sturdiness, ink flow characteristics on that particular metal. You should see in manual what kind of ink do manufacturer recommend. And yes, as was mentioned - these pens are optimized for writing and expression of handwriting, not drawing. Because they are status symbols and collectible items to be used on signing something worth future, millions or billions.
You're the napoleon dynamite/ Bob Ross of youtube art. Lol i love it. Subbed!
I am glad you mention that on the second line and continuing it still gave you problems I find price performance only increases to a certain degree some of my cheapest pens write well compared to my more expensive pens my favorite pen is just over 40 dollars and it writes as lovely as I like it to so its nice you didn't compliment it to justify its 600 price tag cause you could have but you didn't :D appreciate the fairness and honesty

That’s what she said 😏
What does this pull tab do?
"Am I allowed to touch it now??" hhahahahaa

@@thomastakeshita4979 Stop it! Get some help..
Nice
I CAN tell you the GOLD nib is there to make your pen slide easier over the surface. I use gold needles in my cross stitch work. They glide almost effortlessly through the fabric. 😉
I have this pen and I only use it to sign checks. :D
I more often than not fucking hate RUclips for putting videos of creators that I never seen and would never want to see on my front page. But, you, sir, are entertaining to watch.
Petab should I get a fountain pen?
ooh no i.imgur.com/wO68AYX.jpg
Peter Draws are you.......
An imgurian??!!
On a serious note, if you want to get in to fountain pens, a great starter pen is the Pilot Metropolitan.
I'm not an "imgurian" I just use imgur to host images sometimes
+1 for the Pilot Metro, but also if you want an even more affordable option the Platinum Preppy is also a good choice and gets the job done just as well
I admire your honesty so much $600 pen and you still give your honest opinion about it
so if it is 600$, then it must be 6000 times better than a 0.5$ one, right?
no pen price doesn't scale, a 600$ pen is roughly 5 times better than a .5$ one.
Pen review + drawing + ASMR + sandwich + love you 😂 this video had it all, subscribed!
That drawing would be a mad back tattoo 😮
Ahh I am so happy that somehow I came across this channel. My new favorite channel !!
Lmao you really just watched a review of a pen
Josh Zaragoza You are attacking r/foutnainpen, r/pens, and r/mechanicalpencils in 10 words
Air_ r/ihavereddit
I love pens, so yes
I don't even draw
And I learned that this pen isn't $500 better than comparable pens, and in fact may not draw lines as well. Your point, worm?
that picture you drew is AWESOME it says one thing to me "TOY MESS"
$600 for a pen that does the same job as a pen that costs $50 is crazy.
Peter, randomly was recommended here. Love it. Subscribed.
i'm italian. When you put made in italy on something and say"this is hand made in italy boyz"people are like OMG. I hate how this is used in marketing. Just because it's made in Italy doesn't mean is good. it can be trash just like any other product. I don't know why but people judge so hard because of nationality these days
Graphite I love Chinese fountain pens and sometimes they’re even better than some of the more famous brands for less than $5
@@air_ that's indeed my point.
Very nice video! I wasted much of my youth trying to either find the right cartooning pen or master the technique of using a steel nib dip-pen, because I like a bit of variation in the line that felt-tips just won't deliver. I finally discovered that a good fountain pen is a thing of joy. Personally I'd recommend a Pelikan like the M800 (I share your preference for a thicker-body pen) for the right amount of flex, but Aurora pens are good too, although stiffer. Enjoy your pen!
*sell me this pen*
Peter I want to be in love with lines like you are... you are inspirational bro!
Rich people buy $600+ pens to sign fat cheques
What's next on the menu I got a big fat booty to attend to
600 ain't shit mayn calle when you get a $6000 pen now that will sign some phat cheques
Not real sure how this channel came across my feed. But I’m kinda glad it did lol
Anything with the word Italy on it is over !!!!9000!!!!% it value in cost. You literally, quite literally CAN NOT pay for anything Italian without drawing blood.
Real gangsters spread the mustard with an index finger instead of dirtying a knife. Peter Confirmed.
This guy is just scribbling on some paper, that’s hardly a “drawing”
*5 minutes later*
Whoa...
It really is a sign of a true artist when your hands are caked in part of your art form
"Anti clockwise"..
You mean coun.. Ah.. Like nevermind.. 😔
This is the first video I've seen for this channel and honestly at first I was wondering how the hell this guy has so many followers but then he started drawing and he's really good.
Imagine flexing at school with a pen
Imagine someone borrowing it and losing it
Posh pens are a little like fancy cars - they need a but of running in. I was given a Yard O Led 23 years ago and for the first few months it was horrible. But it soon started to write like a dream and it is one of the most important things I own (although I did manage to pull the nib out by accident last year, but it still works beautifully).
PS been watching you almost since the beginning of your channel and my 13 year daughter and I still think you're amazing. In fact I posted a reply on Quora a few days ago about what makes someone talented, and I wrote about you! (Oh no, this may be starting to sound creepy 😆)!
Oooh well screw what I was watching just now. Peter upload is more important lol
I was watching Andrew Huang, but clicked to this... F A S T!
Ibrahim Farooqui I was actually watching a documentary of one of my favorite artists Escher lol
That was a bigger sacrifice :p Have a good day!
Ibrahim Farooqui ahaha well Escher will always be on RUclips. Lmao
Ibrahim Farooqui you as well ❤️
For any pen over 10$ better have free real estate or I'm not buying it
I have no life No
