Loot for Thought - Fans Earth

Back then when blogging and word processing software were scarce, pen-and-paper was still the dominant players in school and art supplies. Today, if you would like to pursue a career in fine arts or the like, computers, a tablet or a lightpen (Wacom) are the best way to go. 

Indeed, but sometimes you want that pen and paper feel. Wether it's writing or drawing, it's the same feeling that some of us miss experiencing like scribbling on smooth paper using sign pens, fountain pens or even fine tip technical pens.

My all-time-favorites are Rotring and Staedtler pens in the 0.1 to 0.3 range. Pilot V5s are also good for drawings. I've scavenged for these beauties today. A pen holder/binder from Brunnen was cool too, I just wished they had more designs to choose from.
