Noodler's Dragon's Napalm

[jmkeuning]

I realized when I was preparing this review that I really like ink. A lot. I think that it is generally really cool stuff to use. But I do not think that I like to write reviews. I have a hard time coming up with ways to express what the ink is doing for me. Maybe it is better put to say that I have a hard time expressing what the ink will do for YOU. So, ymmv.

 

Napalm is a cool ink. It's a good one to have in your arsenal, as you never know when you might need it. What is it? It is different. I agree with penguinmaster that it does not really live up to its hype, but it is still a cool ink.

 

A few things:

The color is unique, but I think that sometimes it looks too pink. Napalm should never be pink.

The ink takes a long time to dry (in the pens that I used it in).

The shading is nice, and you can vary the amount of shading with a few techniques (speed, flow, etc).

Feathering and bleeding? Minimal.

I have no connection to Noodler's, other than loving the ink. And no connection to Jetpens, other than getting the ink from them.

Very high saturation and contrast.

It's one of my favorite inks. I use it for puzzles and the occasional letter.
