Very nice work. What is a nib pen?

Thanks! A nib pen is pretty much like a fountain pen but instead you can change the metal nib on the end and dip it ink when you use it, whereas the fountain pen already has ink on the inside. Its like the old style of using a quil dipping it in ink but without the feather . Hope this helps

Welcome! And ah, I see! Thanks a lot for enlighten me. Of course I know what a nib pen is, but I've never come across this English term for it (I see that it's called also "dip" pen. That's a bit easier to guess ). I like this 'old-fashioned' tool very much and work with it too sometimes; my Travis Bickle portrait is done with it for example. Thanks again for the explanation!
