Assorted Pens and Ink

Here is a part of my collection of pens, pen nibs and ink. I recently was showing my collection of pens to some teens, during the holidays. Yes, they never seen traditional pen and ink!
I have been collecting traditional pens and pen nibs since I was 16 years old. The antique pens are ALLOT of fun to draw with. When you use an old nib ( from back in the day when pen and ink was common), they write are draw so wonderfully.
I have found very few modern pen nibs that compare to the old pens.
For some sketch artists, pen and ink can be so.. scary. It is permanent. I started off drawing with pencils, then to ball point pens, then to markers. I found both fountain pens and traditional pen and ink about the same time.
Fountain pens are great for traveling ( I usually keep them contained, for the occasional leaky pen).
I like to use different drawing medias. Traditional pen and ink is my favorite.
