  1. I got this one on a whim, thinking I might need a yellow. It's not suitable for writing as you cannot see what you're doing and while the scan and photos make it legible, I cannot read the page, over powered by this arguably bright yellow. It's a dry ink and wrote awful in the Soennecken. And it was awful to see the colour through the ink window, it looked like golden pee. Yuck! I believe it's only suitable for art work, or mixing to create murky greens for ex. (you know who you are) I'm not sure if you can use it as a highlighter, as it's not waterproof and loves soaking up cheap paper, meaning it'll bleed through. Oh and where sunglasses, you'll be blinded. 😎 Let's start with the Chroma: Writing samples: While it looks legible, it is not. I could not read what I was writing, hence my illegible handwriting. Hammermill 20lb back. This ink hates cheap paper Photos: Comparaison: Watertest: I was so frustrated with this ink that mixed the Lamy convertors of the pen filled with Herbin Perle Noire with this one. I also added a few drops of Perle Noire in the convertor of the Kakuna, and created a nice murky green. I did a writing sample on cheap Hammermill 20lb paper, and chromas of the different mixes: Note the blue in the first one, and fi And finally the only reason to have this ink: to draw the Minions and bananas Inks used: J Herbin Bouton d'or (yellow), Noodler's Apache Sunset A mix of Herbin Perle Noire + Bouton d'or (Murky green) Platinum Carbon Black Ink for the pants: Akkerman Delfts Blauw and water colour and pastel. · Pens used: Pilot Kakuna Ef, Lamy Safari (EF/F/M/B), Soennecken school pen semi-flex, Jinhao 450 fude · What I liked: For drawing the Minions and bananas , mixing · What I did not like: Illegible, not water resistant and ugly through the ink window. · What some might not like: Illegible It doesn’t like cheap papers. · Shading: Are you kidding me? · Ghosting: On cheap paper · Bleed through: Same as above. · Flow Rate: Wet · Lubrication: Dry · Nib Dry-out: None · Start-up: None · Saturation: Unsaturated · Shading Potential: You can’t see, so what’s the point? · Sheen: None · Spread / Feathering / Woolly Line: No · Nib Creep / “Crud”: No. · Staining (pen): No · Clogging: No · Cleaning: Ok · Water resistance: It doesn’t really make a difference does it? · Availability: 10/30 ml bottles, cartridges. I hope it's doesn't exist in 500 ml bottles Please don't hesitate to share your experience, writing samples or any other comments. The more the merrier
