I’ve been reading many good things about an iPad app called Paper, so I decided to give it a try using my iPad 3 and a pressure sensitive stylus. It’s a very well thought out drawing app, and while I’m totally lacking in artistic ability I do sometimes need to make diagrams and other simple drawings for work. Paper comes with a “fountain pen” tool, which emulates the flexible nibs that fountain pens used to have before the widespread use of copy paper. I found it to be very difficult to use:

I don’t have a real fountain pen with a flexible nib for comparison, so I used one with an italic nib instead:
