Finally had time to ink up pens with Endless Alchemy Candy Sea & Mystic Forest

The ultra flex EF nib in the Jaipur v2 puts down more than enough ink to show off the sheen on Candy Sea and it looks great. Completely different head-on compared to when the light hits it at an angle.

I put Mystic Forest in a Jinhao 82 with a Fude nib and I can't see much sheen in it, though if I pool a bit of ink it shows a little. Probably wants a nib that flows even more freely.
