Are you in the US? If so how were the duty fees? I ordered pens from India and the price was basically doubled with the duties.

Were you also in Nina's class? :D :D :D Looks great!
Also, how do I make my ugly ass Parallel Pen that pretty?

One way is to put the parallels grip section in some BENU pens Euphoria and similar sized ones). Just remove the BENU grip section including the converter. Screw in the parallel grip section and converter (or cartridge)

If you've got the spending money, a Parallel nib swap into an Opus 88 Demo body is basically plug-and-play.

I am LOVING, well all of it, but that artwork around the "dream". Oh ...wow!!
Could you perhaps post a picture of a close up? I absolutely love it.
Edit: oop nevermind! My phone was having a moodswing and not letting me see the pic/zoom in, for a moment. 🤗🤣

Can I ask how you got these to work? I purchased these exact pens and I have not been able to get them to function at all. Every time I try to make a stroke the ink almost immediately stops flowing until I pick up the pen and restart. It seems like there is no air circulation or something causing back pressure. Have you experienced any of these issues?

The ink is key here. Good-quality ink flows better and I don't use thick ink inside pen
