Trying sepia J.Herbin in new book, Hemp Sketch(6×6). I saw someone (on Flickr) in India doing watercolor in Hemp book with effect of a rice paper, so I had to get this book on my yesterday’s trip to Manhattan. But it made in different countries, his in Malasia, so paper is not the same. May be his was Hemp Watercolor? Anyway, tried my new Falcon here.

I like the sepia tones. You have the Falcon with flexible nib?

It is flexible, it has a little hump and make line from thin to a bit thicker, SF, what means soft fine. It could be customized to super flex for extra $110 for Spencerian handwriting, but it become more fragile and crazy expensive. Man in the store gave me to try Sailor Sapporo, it was totally different, much stiffer, but also very thin line.

Thank you, Rose, on this paper sepia looks more brown, not like in WC Moleskine.
