Hi all! I'm new around these parts. >_> To be perfectly honest, I don't know that much about fountain pens. At least, not when it comes to differences between brands, quality, etc. So I need some help.
Y'see, I'm an artist. I do comics (i.e. http://rlfcomic.com ) and occasionally illustration (i.e. http://fav.me/d4sy7ed ). I've got a favorite pen already for detail- Tachikawa School pens. However, I'm looking for something for more line variation and the capacity to make really bold lines. In short, I'm looking for a pen that has-
1. Flex or semi flex nib
2. Is affordable (under $50)
3. Preferably has a cartridge system.
I have tried a Noodler flex pen. I like the lines I can get with it, but having to clean everything after I use it can be a real pain. Hence my desire for a cartridge system. Also I always have to jostle it around to get it to work in the first place.
Honestly, I'd even settle for a pen body and swapping out the nib if I knew the two were compatible. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Addendum: I would be fine with a pump system if I didn't have to thoroughly clean it after every use.
