I do want to make a disclaimer, I'm finding that some people are getting this Muji pen and finding that the ink it comes with by default is actually very lousy. I apologize I never said anything about this as I never tried the ink it came with, I got a piston converter for it and put Platinum Carbon black ink in it, and it works great that way. Anyways, just be aware that for some reason, it seems like they do ship it with very unsatisfying ink.
Hi, Peter. I just received mine from Amazon today. Didn't expect the cartridges to be this small. Noticed you bought a converter, and was wondering if you could give me the details about that converter, and if it holds more ink than the cartridge it came with. Thank you for your time!
I started out watching drummers, then bassists. I then found myself watching shoe shiner competitions and now I've made it here. TH-cam is trying to tell me to grow up, buy a fountain pen, and shine my shoes. Thanks TH-cam! Great review sir.
I am almost on my 20's and TH-cam started to recommend me pen and gardening videos, I started to grow a garden in my house and by fountain pens because of it
Good question, kit the cat. I am a bear and my frog died. Then I watched this video and got knocked out. When I woke up I found these comments. Anyway that’s whole life story so far.
In terms of your artists statement; I think there are two unifying things that run through all your videos. 1. Art can be anything 2. Just make some art today. I have heard you say those two things in almost every single video in one form or another. So there you go, that's my two cents.
The artist's statement (at least the one I had to write for university) was basically a motivational letter. Stating why you want to do something, not really what you are doing. But there could be other meanings. :)
@@MichelleOL The brand is platinum. They make fountain pens and inks and other stationary things. Platinum carbon ink bottle ink black 60cc (japan import) (Original Version) the carbon ink is one of the only truly waterproof inks I've found that work in fountain. There is a super5 ink as well however it's not as black(kind of a dark grey when it dries) as the Platinum. www.amazon.com/dp/B0028MTSFQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_qt.FDbDPMS63J
@@CaptainWumbo I have no personal experience with that specific sailor ink. So I can't say, I don't typically find most inks have a scent though. The platinum ink just smells like ink to me. I think the only thing fountain pen wise I've found that has been completely awful smelling is the noodler ahab.
Platinum Carbon black is a solid choice. Not the blackest of blacks. It dries quickly plus it's waterproof. Just don't keep it in your pen for too long because it's a pigmented ink. Regular cleaning might be necessary.
After more then a year of watching this first, and watching a ton of other content from Peter, I just bought my first fountain pen for myself as a Christmas gift after this really hard year. Yes, you guessed it, a Muji Aluminium Fountain Pen, and a piston converter. Really looking forward to owning a fountain pen, can't wait actually. :) Thank you Peter for the love and knowledge, experiences you share about these pens.
Omg I subscribed to this dude when he had like 100k. I completely forgot about him and this video showed up in my recommended. I missed this quality content
i just found your channel a few days ago and it inspired me to start doodling at 29 years old. I spent the whole evening yesterday with markers and paper. Never thought i was good at it but i was really surprised with how much i liked my drawlings. So thanks a lot for that!! Greetings from Germany
I like the Hongdian forest series aluminum fountain pens. They come in several nib sizes including bent nib. They come with a plunger converter. I have bought several of them through years for Urban sketching. I love them! I usually keep a bent nib and extra fine nib pen clipped to my shirt collar to be ready when I see something to sketch. They come in various colors, have a nice balance and weight and flow nicely. They are about 15 to 17 dollars with converter now. I use these a lot. They have become my go to fountain pen.
Hong Diang is that weird company that sells very good quality items for extremely low prizes exclusively because they don't have renown, i have 2 black forest one with the bend nib, one with the naginata nib, both of them are the smoothest nibs that i have ever write with.
He really convinced me to buy it when this video first came out and I have to say I was not disappointed. Got many comments from teachers saying it looked awesome. It feels great in the hands and writes really well.
In Germany almost wveryone grows up with lamy, in elementary school you have to write with fountain pens and after that it depends on school, but its kinda weird because like 90% of the childre has a lamy pen and i know people who had like 10 or more with 14 years But my point is its weird because thats not the avarage in general but the average price for a "starter" fountain pen in germany Btw pls excuse my bad english lol
Finally got my Muji fountain pen to work. And that tried in many months. Pull the pen out and decided to follow Peter’s example of using carbon ink with a converter. After a thorough cleaning, I switched to a converter filled with carbon ink. Still had a little bit of a problem with ink flow but I decided to push some ink out through the feed using the converter piston, and the pen has worked like a charm ever since. Thank you, Peter.
A new video! 😊 I love your channel Peter - you got me back into drawing, I've been doodling a lot and I really enjoy it. I love MUJI products, they make good quality stuff and I like their designs. 👍
I only recently discovered your channel and I've been binging it every day since. I look forward to my down time even more now! You're an adorable, lovely man and I adore you and this channel. 😊
Hello Peter, it is very satisfying to see your video... The drawing that just comes out naturally as you talk. Really fun, and I hope you just go on! Thanks!
Your words and your art really inspire me, it's somewhat simple words with complex art. Your art makes me feel inspired in a weird way and gives me odd vibes but I really enjoy it. Usually when I draw I draw people and it's colors and sloppily put together yet neat and that's what I draw when I get inspired, however your art gives inspires me in a much different way and makes me want to be more abstract. I look at your art and at first glance it might seem like a cluster of nothing, but once you take a deeper look, it can really make you feel things with a much deeper meaning. That's the power of art and not everyone can accomplish that effect. But you can and I truly admire you for that. Thank you Peter :)
I feel like Peter is a genius beyond the likes anyone has seen, but he doesn’t like to utilize it, his mind operates on a completely different field than ours
Dude, thanks for helping me out this last year with your great videos, you have inspired me to start drawing alot more than I have I'm the last 10 year's and I love it again. So thank you. I love this pen!
I was impulsively encouraged to buy this pen after you reviewed it... I regret spending money cause I’m poor but I don’t regret the purchase of the pen. It’s a fantastic utensil. Great grip on the paper and feels good in my hand. As your stress test revealed, it does not skip or fade. I love it 😪❤️
The drawing reminds me of organs or layed out anatomy. Maybe alien anatomy? Or some sort of organic specimen. Looks super rad! Edit: I can almost see a human laying down inside of it.
Peter every time I see you you get more handsome and I'm starting to get genuinely upset by it. What deal did you make???? What eldritch being are you doing pen reviews for in exchange for beautiful art and beautiful face?????
@@loiscassels8966 not sure but he is taking art classes. Possibly a major in art? In recent videos he's talked a lot about his art class. Maybe just the one right now?
Always nice to see the domestic space so clearly delineated, but I do think it would have been an additional hoot & holler if, as you progressed cutting back to the room you were in & getting up to wash, we actually saw the outbreak of a sea battle emerge on that back wall between the map & the painting of the ship, with that cut- out burst of fire there, if the fire had been extended larger, a bigger cut out placed back there, maybe change the painting little bit so that the boat actually sinks, it would be a little inside jocularity for those of us who watch these things and seek amusement as well as enrichment.
I have one of these on the way (due to arrive tomorrow, according to Amazon tracking). I ordered it specifically because of your review and recommendation, though I will say I ordered the fine nib. I happened to receive a large bottle of Noodler's Heart Of Darkness ink today and thanks to your comment from yesterday, I will use a converter and the Noodler's ink in it to start out with, or a Picasso universal black in standard cartridge. Thanks for the heads up!
I have just recently found your channel and I must say, your voice is very soothing. I bet you get this a lot. It is like ASMR to me. You are technically a new ASMR artist for me to watch and relax to. Yay ^-^ Especially the drawing.. Very meditative. Thank you!

were all a little gay for peter

It calms me.
Thx
The best fountain pen I ever owned was $7 from Walgreens. It also happens to be the only fountain pen ive ever owned.
God I wish I could say the same, I got a real shitty one from amazon for around the same price and all it did was leak everywhere 😭😭😭
Was it the metal zebra fountain pen?
This is one of my all-time favourite pens; beautiful simple zen design, great value, and wonderful semi-flex nib. Great review!

I could tell the moment you put nib to paper, even on those post its, that it was a satisfying flow to that nib. It writes really well.
"I work with the ambience of the smudge. "
There. Next time somebody comes to you for an artist statement you've got one.
This actually makes me feel like I am a bit more prepared for life in general. Thank you.
